Strelux may investigate suspected violations and take any action it deems appropriate, including:
- Issuing a warning.
- Temporarily suspending access to the Service.
- Permanently terminating the account.
- Reporting illegal activity to law enforcement.
Where practicable, we will provide notice before taking enforcement action.

6. Changes to this policy
Strelux may update this AUP from time to time. We will post the revised version on this page and update the "Last updated" date. Material changes will be communicated at least thirty (30) days in advance by email or through the Service.
