Acceptable Use Policy

This policy is part of our Terms of Service. It applies to everything you do with Linq: your cards, documents, contacts, teams, invitations and integrations.

Your card and documents

Don’t use Linq to publish or share anything that:

• pretends to be another person, company or organization, or misleads people about who you are or who you work for;
• is illegal, or promotes illegal activity;
• infringes someone else’s rights, such as their copyright, trademark or privacy (for example, a logo or photo you’re not allowed to use);
• harasses, threatens or promotes hatred or violence against people based on who they are;
• is sexually explicit, or sexualizes or endangers children in any way;
• links to malware, phishing or scam pages, or tricks people into giving up passwords, money or personal information.

Contacts and messages

• Use the contacts you collect only as the law allows. Don’t send them marketing they didn’t agree to.
• Don’t collect people’s details by deceiving them, or collect more than you need.
• Don’t use team invitations, the contact form or any other part of Linq to send spam or bulk unsolicited messages. Only invite people who expect to hear from your team.
• Don’t sell or give away contacts to people who haven’t been told about it.

The Service itself

Don’t:

• try to get into accounts, cards or data that aren’t yours, or test our security without our written permission;
• scrape, crawl or harvest data from Linq cards or the app, except for search engines indexing public pages;
• overload, disrupt or interfere with the Service, or use it to attack other systems;
• copy, reverse engineer or resell the Service, or build a competing product with it, except where the law allows;
• create accounts in bulk or by automated means, or use Linq to get around a suspension;
• use NFC cards or QR codes to send people somewhere other than a genuine Linq card.

Reporting a problem

If you see a card or content that breaks this policy, or you think someone is misusing your details, email hello@linq-business.com with the card’s link and what’s wrong. We look into every report.

What we do about it

If something breaks this policy, we may remove the content, take a card offline, limit features, or suspend or close the account, depending on how serious it is and whether it has happened before. Where reasonable, we’ll tell you and give you a chance to fix it first. We may also report illegal activity to the authorities.
