Account Funds abuse
Account Funds are designed solely to pre-fund Sentinel purchases. Users who top up large amounts and then attempt to extract the balance via support requests, chargebacks, or social-engineering will have their accounts and balances frozen pending review. Sentinel SERP reserves the right to forfeit Account Funds balances that are determined to have been topped up with the intent to extract value rather than purchase Sentinel products.
Trial-system abuse
Each trial is bound to a hardware fingerprint on our license server. Repeatedly submitting trial-extension requests, submitting requests that misrepresent your circumstances, or attempting to obtain trials on behalf of a third party are all violations. Confirmed abuse may result in permanent denial of trials and a flag on any future paid orders for additional verification.
Enforcement
Violations may result in immediate suspension or termination without refund and, where appropriate, referral to law enforcement. Sentinel SERP maintains an internal audit trail of license events, hardware fingerprints, IP addresses, payment events, and customer-portal actions, which it may use as evidence in any dispute or chargeback.
