Acceptable Use Policy
Last updated: 30/06/2026
This Acceptable Use Policy ("AUP") sets out the rules for using the website at elevatemi.co.uk and its subdomains, and our products, tools and APIs (together, the "Services"), operated by Elevate Market Intelligence Limited (company number 16329736), registered office 6 Lucky Lane, Exeter, EX2 4UJ ("Elevate", "we", "us"). It applies to everyone who uses the Services and forms part of our Website Terms of Use and any product-specific terms. Where a product's own terms set additional or stricter rules, those also apply.

You must use the Services lawfully, honestly and only for their intended purposes. You must not use them in any way that breaks the law, infringes anyone's rights, or harms or risks harming us, our Services or other users.
2. Prohibited uses
You must not:
(a) use the Services in breach of any applicable law or regulation, including the UK GDPR, the Data Protection Act 2018, the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003 (PECR), direct-marketing rules, or any applicable export, sanctions or anti-fraud laws;

(k) remove, obscure or alter any proprietary notices, or misrepresent your identity, your affiliation, or the origin of any content; or
(l) use the Services in any way that places an unreasonable or disproportionately large load on our infrastructure, or that could damage, disable or impair the Services.

4. Monitoring and enforcement
4.1 We do not routinely monitor use of the Services, but we may do so where we reasonably need to, for example to protect the Services, comply with the law, or investigate suspected breaches of this AUP.
4.2 If you breach this AUP, we may take any action we consider appropriate, including issuing a warning, restricting, suspending or terminating your access or account, removing content, and reporting activity to the relevant authorities. We may act without notice where we reasonably consider prompt action necessary.
