Acceptable Use Policy

Acceptable Use Policy

Section titled “Acceptable Use Policy”

Last updated: August 20, 2026

This Acceptable Use Policy (“AUP”) applies to everyone who uses idea_builder. By using the platform you agree to follow it. Enforcement of this policy is stricter than the legal minimum; borderline content is reviewed by our staff, not auto-approved.

Banned categories

Section titled “Banned categories”

We do not tolerate content that:

  1. Hate — expresses hate speech against identifiable groups (race, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability, nationality), per the framing of Canada’s Criminal Code s. 319. Religious belief and argument alone are not hate.
  2. Harassment & abuse — is abusive, harassing, or profane language directed at other users or at our staff (including support tickets and voice conversations).
  3. Violence — contains threats, violent content, or instructions for physical harm.
  4. Sexual content — contains any sexual or pornographic content. Sexual content involving minors is the highest severity and results in immediate action.
  5. Illegal business — promotes unlicensed gambling, drugs, weapons, or unlicensed financial/medical schemes. All gambling-business ideas are banned, licensed or not.
  6. Fringe ideology — promotes cult, extremist, or supremacist groups as a business model. Plain religious or political discussion remains allowed.
  7. Prompt injection — attempts to override the AI’s instructions, reveal its system prompt, or force policy-violating output.
  8. Self-harm — promotes or instructs self-harm.

Enforcement

Section titled “Enforcement”
  • Clear violations are blocked at input, with a warning that cites the rule you violated.
  • Repeated violations escalate: warning → 24-hour freeze → 7-day suspension → permanent ban. Strikes expire after 90 days of clean behavior.
  • Borderline content is allowed pending review by our staff; no strike is issued until a human confirms a violation.
  • We may report serious violations (e.g. content involving minors) to authorities.

Appeals

Section titled “Appeals”

If you believe an enforcement action was wrong, appeal it from the notice you received or from Settings. Appeals create a support ticket linked to the original case; our staff will review it and can reverse the action.
