Acceptable use policy
Last updated 28 October 2026
Draft, pending legal review. Text in square brackets is still to be completed.
This policy applies to every workspace on the SparQ platform and to the applications and agents built on it. It sits alongside the policies of the model providers your workspace uses.
You may not use SparQ to
- Break the law, or help others to, including laws on privacy, consumer protection, export control and sanctions.
- Build or run systems that make solely automated decisions with legal or similarly significant effects on people without the human review the law requires.
- Generate or distribute content that sexualises minors, incites violence, or harasses people.
- Attempt to bypass isolation between workspaces, projects or clients, or SparQ's limits, guardrails or approvals.
- Probe, scan or attack SparQ or other customers, except under our vulnerability disclosure policy.
- Use an AI system in a way prohibited by regulation that applies to you, such as the EU AI Act.
Your responsibilities
- Tell your users when they are interacting with an AI system, where the law requires it.
- Configure compliance profiles, approvals and limits that match your obligations to your own customers.
- Keep credentials secret, and revoke any you suspect are exposed.
Enforcement
We may suspend an agent, a client, a credential or a workspace that breaches this policy, using the same kill switches available to you, and will tell you why unless the law prevents it.
