# Acceptable Use Policy

> **Draft pending review by counsel — not yet in force.**

Version 2026-10-16.1, effective 2026-10-16. Bridge to Brands is a product of RunOps Inc.

## In short

- Respect each brand's dealer terms and our portal pacing; do not try to get around either.
- Keep API keys inside your business; do not share or publish them.
- Do not scrape or resell brand catalog, price or availability data.
- Do not place unlawful, fraudulent or test orders with real brands, and do not probe or attack the service.

This policy is part of the [Terms of Service](/legal/terms). Capitalised words have the meanings in the Terms. If you breach it we may suspend the affected API Key, Brand connection or Account under section 16 of the Terms.

## 1. Respect the Brands

1.1 Use a Brand's Dealer Portal through the Service only as your dealer agreement with that Brand allows, including any rules about automated access, resale channels, minimum advertised prices and drop-shipping.

1.2 Connect only dealer accounts that belong to your business, with Portal Credentials you are entitled to use.

## 2. Respect the pacing

2.1 Bridge to Brands paces every portal call per connection. Do not try to circumvent this or a portal's own limits, for example by connecting the same dealer account under several Accounts, rotating keys to evade rate limits, or using the Service alongside other automation against the same account in a way that overloads it.

## 3. Keep keys private

3.1 Do not share API Keys outside your business, publish them, embed them in client-side code, or sell access to the Service. Each person or system should have its own key so usage and revocation stay clear.

## 4. No resale of brand data

4.1 Do not scrape, aggregate or redistribute catalog, price, availability or order data obtained through the Service for resale, for a third party's benefit, or to build a competing data product. Dealer prices are confidential between you and the Brand.

## 5. Lawful orders only

5.1 Do not place Orders that are fraudulent, that you do not intend to honour, that use another person's identity or address without permission, or that breach export, sanctions or consumer-protection law.

5.2 Do not place test Orders with real Brands. Use test-mode keys (`b2b_test_`) for testing.

## 6. Do not probe or attack the Service

6.1 Do not attempt to access another Account's data, bypass authentication, scopes or Caps, reverse-engineer non-public interfaces, run vulnerability scans or load tests, or send malicious content to the Service or through it to a Dealer Portal. Report suspected vulnerabilities as described in [security.txt](/.well-known/security.txt).

6.2 Do not use the Service to send instructions designed to manipulate AI Agents (prompt injection) or to exfiltrate data through them.
