• Contacting agents, hosts, or service providers through the platform
• Making bookings, payments, or inquiries where the platform supports them

3. Prohibited Conduct

You must not use HubQuery to:

Platform abuse and automation

Permitted access: Normal use through our websites and official apps, and integrations we expressly authorize in writing, are permitted. We may block traffic that appears automated or abusive without prior notice.

4. Content and Listings

You are responsible for all content you post. Listings must be accurate and you must have the right to list the property or offer the service. HubQuery may remove or reject any content that we reasonably believe violates this AUP.

5. Enforcement

We may investigate suspected violations and take action we deem appropriate, including warnings, content removal, account suspension or termination, IP or device blocks, reporting to authorities, or legal remedies. Technical enforcement (e.g. rate limits, blocks) may apply even before manual review. We are not obligated to monitor all content but may do so.

6. Changes and Contact

We may update this AUP from time to time. Continued use after changes constitutes acceptance. For questions or to report violations, contact [email protected] or [email protected].
