Acceptable Use Policy
This Acceptable Use Policy (the "AUP") governs the use of the satooB platform, websites, and related services (the "Service") operated by Konatamo LLC ("satooB", "we", "us", "our"). It applies to every Customer of the Service and, by extension, to every End-User who participates in a Customer's loyalty program. Material breach of this AUP may result in immediate suspension or termination of the offending account under Section 9 of the Master Terms of Service.
This AUP is incorporated by reference into the Master Terms of Service, the Partner Terms, and the User Terms. Capitalised terms not defined here have the meaning given to them in those documents.
1. Purpose
The purpose of this AUP is twofold :
- To ensure the safety, integrity, and lawful operation of the Service for all Customers and End-Users ; and
- To mirror the prohibitions that bind Konatamo LLC under its own Operating Agreement, so that Customers operating on the platform do not engage in activities that would jeopardise the regulatory classification of the Service.
This AUP applies to all activities Customers or End-Users carry out on the Service, through the Service, or in connection with the Service, including offline activities (e.g. point-of-sale interactions) where those activities are tied to a satooB-administered loyalty program.

(b) Custodial wallet services
The provision of custodial wallet services, hosted wallet services, or any service involving the custody, holding, or transmission of cryptocurrencies, virtual currencies, digital assets, or other digital tokens for or on behalf of any person.
(c) Issuance, sale, or distribution of digital assets
The issuance, sale, distribution, or marketing of cryptocurrencies, virtual currencies, security tokens, utility tokens, non-fungible tokens, or any other instrument that may be characterised as a security under U.S. federal or state securities laws.
(d) Money services and payment institutions
The operation of a money services business, money transmitter, payment processor, or any other money transmission activity that would require licensure under U.S. federal law (including the Bank Secrecy Act) or under any U.S. state money-transmission law.

The conversion, redemption, or exchange of points or rewards into United States dollars or any other fiat currency, into any cryptocurrency or digital asset, or into any other monetary or quasi-monetary instrument.

7. Updates
We may update this AUP from time to time. If a modification is material — for example, the addition of a new category of prohibited activities, the tightening of an existing prohibition, or a change in enforcement procedures — we will provide at least thirty (30) days' notice before the modification takes effect, by email to the address associated with the Customer's account or through a prominent notice on the Service.
