You logged in like usual.
But something felt off immediately.
Certain features were disabled.
Uploads failed.
Settings were locked.
Then you saw the notice.
“Your account violated our Terms of Service.”
No detailed explanation.
No clear next step.
What a Terms Violation Restriction Means
- Your account is still active but limited
- Specific features are temporarily disabled
- Restrictions depend on violation severity
- Full suspension may happen if unresolved
Common Triggers Behind the Restriction
- Content flagged as policy-violating
- Automated spam or bulk activity detection
- Copyright or licensing complaints
- Abusive or prohibited behavior reports
How to Restore Full Access
- Review the platform’s Terms of Service
- Check violation details in account notices
- Submit an appeal if the restriction is incorrect
- Remove or correct flagged content
Terms violations don’t always mean permanent bans.
But ignoring the notice can escalate restrictions quickly.
