Acceptable Use Policy

1. Never use SimBazaar to

• commit or help commit fraud, scams, money laundering, identity theft or any other crime, including offences under the Cybercrimes (Prohibition, Prevention, etc.) Act 2015;
• impersonate a person, business or government body, or create accounts in someone else's name without their permission;
• open or take over bank, fintech, mobile-money, payment, cryptocurrency-exchange or government accounts that you are not entitled to;
• get around a ban, suspension, age check, identity check or sanctions screening placed on you by another platform;
• send spam, phishing or other unsolicited bulk messages, or run fake engagement (fake reviews, followers, votes or sign-up bonuses);
• harass, threaten or stalk anyone, or share sexual content involving minors or anyone without their consent;
• access, monitor or control any account, device, network or data without authorisation;
• distribute malware, or attack, overload or test the security of SimBazaar or anyone else without written permission.

2. Virtual numbers

• Use a number only to verify an account that you are entitled to create and that the platform's own rules allow.
• We refuse to sell numbers for some platforms, usually banks, payment apps and government services, because the fraud risk is too high. This list can change at any time.
• Do not use numbers for long-term account recovery or two-factor login. They are temporary and may be reassigned.

3. eSIMs

• eSIMs are for your own use, or for your staff or family. Do not resell them without our written agreement.
• Follow the laws and network rules of the country where you use the eSIM, including any fair-use limits shown on the product.
• Do not use an eSIM to commit or hide any activity this policy prohibits.

4. Scripts

Scripts may be used only to work with your own SimBazaar account through your own API key. Do not use them to register, control or automate accounts on other platforms, or change them to do so.

5. Tools and websites

We will not build, host or maintain anything that is unlawful in Nigeria or where it is offered, or that is designed to mislead people. This includes phishing or look-alike sites, fake shops, investment or "double your money" schemes, gambling without a licence, sites selling counterfeit or illegal goods, and content that infringes someone else's copyright or trademark.

6. RMM seats

Connect only devices you own or are authorised in writing to manage. Where the law requires it, tell the device's users that it is being monitored. Never use RMM to spy on a partner, family member, employee or anyone else without lawful grounds.

7. API and resellers

If you resell through our API, you are responsible for your customers' use, and must apply rules at least as strict as these. Do not try to get around rate limits, blocks or verification checks.

8. AI Studio

• Upload only photos you own or have the right to use. Everyone recognisable in a photo must have agreed to it being edited or animated.
• Never make sexual or nude images or videos, anything involving a child, or violent or gory content.
• Never make content that impersonates a real person or business, puts words or actions on someone they didn't say or do, or could pass as real news, evidence or an endorsement. No political figures or celebrities.
• Don't use results for scams, fraud, harassment, blackmail or to mislead anyone. When you share a result, say it was made with AI.
• Every request is checked by automatic safety filters and kept against your account with its prompt. We may review it, block AI Studio for the account, and report unlawful content to the authorities.

9. What happens if these rules are broken

• Depending on how serious it is, we may warn you, cancel orders, remove a device or seat, suspend the account, hold the balance while we review it, or close the account. Refunds in these cases follow our Refund Policy.
• We keep order records and cooperate with lawful requests from Nigerian law enforcement and regulators. We may report suspected crimes.
• To report abuse, email [email protected] with the number, order or website involved.
