Acceptable use policy

Prohibited payloads & deceptive flows

• Malware, cryptominers inside exhibitor brochures, ransomware droppers zipped as booth renders.
• Spear phishing impersonating payouts teams, spoofed domains homoglyphing Trade Fair Wala brands.
• Hidden surveillance gear marketed without attendee disclosure packets.
• Illicit substance promotions breaching organizer codes of conduct or local statutes.
• Credential stuffing tooling even if labelled load testing absent written approval.
• Mass outbound SMS blasting purchased lists lacking double opt-ins.
• High-frequency API hammering circumventing backoff strategies.
• Gambling ladders targeting minors violating jurisdictional bans.
• Counterfeit memorabilia masquerading as licensed IP without chain-of-custody paperwork.
• Political astro-turfing campaigns falsely implying endorsements from expo leadership.

Operational courtesy & escalation hygiene

Concierge responders deserve civil tone—even during outages quoting multi-hour ETA windows. Videoconference backgrounds should preserve confidentiality of neighboring booths. Incident rooms must label severity honestly to avoid SLA gaming.

Collaborative enforcement & organizer overrides

Automated removals may be paused when organizers escalate appeals citing contractual nuances. Repeated violations stack strikes across linked promoter entities; indefinite bans require human committee review documenting minority dissent notes.

Security research & sanctioned testing windows

Bug bounty entrants must honor scope CSVs; out-of-scope issues still appreciated via coordinated disclosure inbox. Unauthorized testing—even well intentioned—remains actionable unless pre-approved badges issued for onsite hardware labs.

Geographic sanctions & reseller integrity

Flows block purchases from comprehensively sanctioned regions when card BIN + IP heuristics align. Ticket resellers must onboard KYC aligning with AML programs; circumventing resale locks via scripted bots triggers promoter-wide suspensions.
