It is incorporated by reference into the Terms of Service. Violations may result in immediate suspension or termination.

Users may not use SparrowHawk CRM to:
- violate any applicable law, regulation, or third-party right
- commit fraud, misrepresent identity, or impersonate any person or entity, including SparrowHawk CRM LLC or its personnel

- distribute malware, ransomware, viruses, worms, spyware, or other malicious code

3. Prohibited Content
Users may not upload, store, transmit, or share:
- content that infringes any copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret, or other intellectual property right
- pirated software, cracked license keys, or unauthorized aircraft maintenance manuals
- child sexual abuse material or content that sexually exploits minors — such content is reported to authorities without notice

4. Security and Integrity

- produce material designed to deceive, defraud, or manipulate individuals or markets

- represent that SparrowHawk CRM LLC has certified an aircraft, mechanic, repair station, inspection authorization, or return-to-service action
- generate or distribute forged maintenance records, inspection sign-offs, or logbook entries

9. Competitive Use

10. Responsibility for Users and End Customers

11. Enforcement
SparrowHawk CRM LLC may investigate suspected violations and take any action it reasonably considers appropriate, including issuing a warning, restricting features, removing content, suspending or terminating accounts, disclosing information to law enforcement where required or appropriate, and pursuing legal remedies.
