2. Monitoring

To maintain security and compliance, ProRedLine may monitor server usage through:

• resource usage tracking (CPU, RAM, bandwidth),
• automated monitoring systems, logs and security alerts,
• security plugins and other website security systems,
• abuse reports from third parties,
• incident response systems.

Monitoring is limited to identifying policy violations, technical issues, or security threats. Personal data obtained during monitoring is processed only in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

3. Enforcement

ProRedLine reserves the right to enforce this AUP at its sole discretion to protect service integrity, legal compliance, customer safety, and platform reputation.

Actions may include:

• warnings and remediation requests,
• temporary restrictions or rate limiting,
• immediate suspension (including without prior notice) for severe cases such as phishing, malware distribution, active compromise, or legal urgency,
• termination of Services for repeated or serious violations.

ProRedLine may cooperate with law enforcement or competent authorities and provide relevant logs or information where legally required.

ProRedLine may take proportionate action depending on the severity, frequency and impact of the violation.

Refunds are not available for terminated services due to AUP violations, unless mandatory law requires otherwise.

4. Abuse Reports (Notice & Takedown)

Third parties (non-customers) may report unlawful or abusive content hosted by ProRedLine via our dedicated procedure.

• Abuse notifications can be submitted through our Account Portal (“Report Abuse” category) or by email to abuse@proredline.com.
• Reports are handled in accordance with our Notice & Takedown Policy (https://proredline.com/legal/notice-takedown-policy).

Customers acknowledge that services may be suspended or terminated if ProRedLine receives a valid and substantiated abuse notification and considers suspension or termination necessary.

5. Customer Cooperation

Customers must reasonably cooperate with abuse investigations and provide requested information where necessary to resolve an abuse report or security incident.

6. Changes to the Acceptable Use Policy

ProRedLine reserves the right to modify this Acceptable Use Policy at any time. Any changes made will be communicated via our website and may be sent to customers via email. Continued use of our services after changes to this policy constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
