1. Overview
1.1 This Acceptable Use Policy ("AUP") governs your use of the AssureTwin platform and all associated services operated by VynFi.com LLC (i.G.) ("VynFi," "we," "us"). This AUP is incorporated into and forms part of our Terms of Service.
1.2 By accessing or using the Service, you agree to comply with this AUP. Violations may result in enforcement actions as described in Section 8.
1.3 This AUP is intended to protect the integrity of the Service, the safety of all users, and the reputation of the audit profession. We expect all users to exercise professional judgment in their use of the platform.
2. Permitted Uses
2.1 AssureTwin is designed for professional and educational use. The following uses are expressly permitted and encouraged:
Audit Planning and Methodology
Using simulation results to inform audit planning decisions, evaluate methodology alternatives, and optimize engagement structures.
Training and Professional Development
Training audit staff on methodology execution, judgment calibration, and analytical procedures using synthetic data and simulated engagements.
Education and Research
Using the platform in academic courses, research projects, and scholarly publications related to auditing, accounting, and formal methods.
Tool Calibration and Testing
Calibrating audit analytics tools, testing data analysis algorithms, and benchmarking detection methods against synthetic datasets with known properties.
Client Pitches and Proposals
Using synthetic simulation results in client presentations and proposals, provided that the synthetic nature of the data is clearly disclosed.
Methodology Comparison
Comparing audit methodology frameworks (e.g., KPMG Clara vs. PwC Aura) using simulated engagements to understand structural differences and inform methodology selection.
Quality Assurance
Evaluating and improving internal quality control processes, methodology compliance, and professional skepticism through simulated scenarios.
3. Prohibited Uses
3.1 The following uses of the Service are strictly prohibited:
Misrepresentation of Synthetic Data
- Presenting synthetic data generated by AssureTwin as real audit evidence, actual financial statements, or genuine examination results
- Using synthetic data as the sole basis for actual regulatory filings without a clear, prominent, and unambiguous disclaimer that the data is synthetic
- Representing simulation results as the output of a real audit engagement
- Using formal verification results from simulations to certify compliance of real-world audit engagements
Security and Access Violations
- Sharing, transferring, or exposing API keys, authentication tokens, or access credentials to unauthorized third parties
- Circumventing, disabling, or interfering with rate limits, access controls, security features, or usage restrictions
- Attempting to gain unauthorized access to other users' accounts, data, or Service infrastructure
- Creating multiple accounts to circumvent tier limitations or rate limits
Reverse Engineering and Scraping
- Reverse engineering, decompiling, disassembling, or otherwise attempting to derive the source code of the DataSynth engine, RustGraph, or any proprietary component of the Service
- Conducting automated scraping, bulk data extraction, or systematic downloading of Service content beyond normal usage patterns
- Using bots, crawlers, or automated tools to access the Service in a manner that exceeds reasonable human usage
Client Data and Privacy
- Uploading, transmitting, or processing real client financial data through the cloud-hosted Service (use the Enterprise Desktop App for real data)
- Including personally identifiable information (PII) of real individuals in simulation configurations or AI prompts
General Prohibitions
- Using the Service for any illegal purpose or in violation of applicable laws or regulations
- Interfering with or disrupting the integrity, performance, or availability of the Service
- Engaging in any activity that could harm, disable, overburden, or impair the Service's infrastructure
- Sublicensing, reselling, or redistributing access to the Service without prior written authorization
Data Handling Requirements
3.2 When working with AssureTwin outputs, you must:
- Clearly label all synthetic outputs as synthetic data when storing, sharing, or referencing them outside the platform
- Not commingle synthetic data with real audit data in a manner that could cause confusion about which data is real and which is synthetic
- Maintain clear separation between AssureTwin simulation environments and production audit engagement files
- Ensure that any team members who receive synthetic data exports understand the synthetic nature of the data
4. Synthetic Data Disclaimer
Required Disclaimer
"All data generated by AssureTwin is synthetic. It must never be presented as real audit evidence or used as the sole basis for regulatory filings."
4.1 The above disclaimer, or a substantially equivalent statement, must be included whenever AssureTwin-generated data is used in any context where recipients might reasonably interpret the data as real. This includes, but is not limited to:
- Client presentations and pitch materials
- Internal reports distributed beyond the simulation team
- Academic papers and publications
- Regulatory submissions (even when supplementary)
- Any context where the audience may not be aware they are viewing simulated data
4.2 Within the AssureTwin platform itself, all generated data is clearly labeled as synthetic. You must maintain this labeling when exporting or sharing data outside the platform.
5. Rate Limits and Fair Use
5.1 To ensure fair access and platform stability, the following rate limits apply:
5.2 Additional rate limits may apply to specific API endpoints and features. These are documented in the API reference and communicated via standard HTTP rate limit headers (X-RateLimit-Limit, X-RateLimit-Remaining, Retry-After).
5.3 We reserve the right to adjust rate limits with reasonable notice. Sustained usage patterns that significantly exceed normal use may be subject to additional limits or require an upgrade to a higher tier.
5.4 Enterprise customers may negotiate custom rate limits as part of their Enterprise Agreement.
6. API and Integration Usage
6.1 If you access the Service via API, the following additional rules apply:
- API keys and tokens are for your use only and must not be shared, published, or embedded in client-side code
- Implement exponential backoff for retries after receiving rate limit responses (HTTP 429)
- Include a descriptive
User-Agentheader identifying your application - Respect
Cache-Controlheaders and avoid excessive polling - Do not use the API to build a competing service that substantially replicates AssureTwin's core functionality
6.2 We reserve the right to revoke API access immediately in cases of abuse, without prior notice.
7. Content Standards
7.1 When using features that allow user-generated content (such as engagement names, descriptions, annotations, and AI prompts), you agree not to submit content that:
- Contains real client names, financial data, or personally identifiable information
- Is defamatory, harassing, threatening, or otherwise objectionable
- Infringes the intellectual property rights of any third party
- Contains malicious code, scripts, or payloads designed to exploit or disrupt the Service
8. Monitoring and Enforcement
8.1 We monitor usage of the Service for security, performance, and compliance purposes. Monitoring may include automated analysis of usage patterns, rate limit compliance, and content review.
8.2 Violations of this AUP may result in the following enforcement actions, applied at our discretion and proportional to the severity and nature of the violation:
Warning
For first-time or minor violations, we may issue a written warning via the email associated with your account, identifying the violation and requesting corrective action.
Suspension
For repeated or significant violations, we may temporarily suspend your access to the Service. During suspension, your data is preserved and you will be notified of the reasons and duration.
Termination
For severe violations or continued violations after warning and suspension, we may permanently terminate your account. Termination is subject to the data export provisions in Section 12 of our Terms of Service.
8.3 In cases involving immediate threats to the security, integrity, or availability of the Service (e.g., active exploitation, DDoS attacks, or ongoing data exfiltration), we may bypass the warning stage and proceed directly to suspension or termination.
8.4 If you believe an enforcement action was taken in error, you may appeal by contacting legal@assuretwin.com within 14 days of the action. Appeals will be reviewed by a person not involved in the original enforcement decision.
