Acceptable use note: Affiliate and Referral Misuse Referral, affiliate, and creator rewards must not be generated through fake accounts, misleading claims, spam, self-referrals, or coupon leakage outside the intended campaign. If you think an order, account, message, or request was incorrectly flagged, contact support@starterfixsprint.com with your order number and a brief explanation. We review good-faith customer questions through our normal support process.
Use this as a drafting aid only. Keep it consistent with your visible Terms, Refund Policy, Privacy Policy, product pages, and support promises.
Where to place it
Add a short version near support, checkout expectations, account rules, community rules, or the relevant policy page. Link to your full policy when the issue affects refunds, privacy, shipping, or subscriptions.
How to soften the tone
Lead with customer fairness, site reliability, and safe support. Avoid sounding like every customer is suspicious; the best copy sets boundaries without making normal buyers feel accused.
