Acceptable Use Policy

Introduction

Last updated: May 25th, 2023

‍

We developed trumpet to make it easy to collaborate with customers and understand how your customers are engaging with your content.

‍

Our belief has always been that if we can do this at scale, we can play an influential part in improving the experience for millions of people online. This belief has driven us to reduce the friction of signing up for our service and also fuels our desire to make it easy to get value from our product.

‍

So far our approach has worked however, not everything is perfect. Given the rate of change online, its tremendous growth, and the ease of publishing, it’s not practical for trumpet to know all of its users nor the exact nature of their business. While we believe the majority of people on this planet are good-natured, our product might be used in ways we never intended. It’s also conceivable that some accounts will not be using trumpet as we had intended or in line with our Terms of Service.

‍

The intent of this Policy is to make it clear to anyone who uses trumpet (free or paid) what behavior or content is not acceptable for sites using our service. We will take action against sites that are discovered to be in violation of this Policy.

‍

This Policy is a living document and will be updated as necessary. Continued use of trumpet requires compliance with this Acceptable Use Policy as well as our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.

‍

NON-acceptable uses of trumpet

If the content on your website contains information that is conducting or promoting any of the below, or if you intend to leverage trumpet to do any of the below, please don’t sign up for trumpet. If you already have an account—whether free or paid—you must stop using trumpet on the offending site or cancel your account.

‍

The following constitutes behavior and content that are NOT acceptable uses of trumpet:

‍

Sites performing, promoting, suggesting, or soliciting illegal activities.

‍

Harassment, bullying, defamation, stalking, and threats.

‍

Hateful content. A website using trumpet must not contain content that meets the following criteria nor can a trumpet account be used to do any of the following:

‍

Promote or condone hate, violence, or discrimination against people based on race, ethnicity, color, national origin, religion, age, gender, sexual orientation, disability, medical condition, veteran status, or other forms of discriminatory intolerance.

‍

Promote or support organisations, platforms or people that: (i) promote or condone such hate; or (ii) threaten or condone violence to further a cause.

‍

Child exploitation, sexualization, or abuse. We don’t tolerate any activities that create, disseminate, or otherwise cause child abuse.

‍

Sites selling counterfeit goods; or sites allowing, performing or facilitating any infringement of third party intellectual property rights.

‍

Malware or spyware. This includes using trumpet to inject, infect, spread, etc. malware or spyware.

Phishing or otherwise attempting fraud. It is not okay to lie about who you are or who you affiliate with to steal from, extort, or otherwise harm others.

‍

Spamming. No one wants unsolicited emails, text, or other communication.

‍

Violence, or threats thereof. This includes activities on your site that qualify as a violent crime where you live, or in the UK where trumpet is based, or if you are leveraging trumpet to plan, conduct, assist, commit, or threaten this kind of activity.

‍

Any actions that do not support the privacy rights of an individual. This includes capturing, selling, or sharing personal data without their consent.

‍

It’s foreseeable that a customer's use of trumpet may extend to new areas not currently documented in this Policy. When and if this occurs we will take the same action of investigation and enforcement to determine if a site/account is acting against the spirit of this Policy. We reserve the right to do this as needed. When a situation like this occurs we will use our Core Values to guide our final decision and update this Policy if appropriate.

‍

Reporting a concern

Do you know of a site that is violating this Policy? Or do you suspect a site might be violating the Policy? If so, please contact us so we can investigate.

‍

Simply email us at privacy@sendtrumpet.com.

‍

Please share as much as you are comfortable with about the site, the content or behavior you are reporting, and how you found it. In addition to the URL, sending us screenshots is helpful since content can quickly be removed or changed.

‍

Someone on our team will respond within two business days to let you know we’ve begun investigating. We will also contact you with the outcome of our investigation (unless you ask us not to, or we are not allowed to under law).
