4. Ongoing Verification and Rules

To ensure the fairness and effectiveness of the program, we have the following verification mechanisms:

• Regular Checks: Our system automatically checks your README.md file weekly to confirm that the promotional badge still exists
• Manual Verification: You can trigger verification at any time through the platform to confirm your project status is normal
• Violation Handling: If a violation is detected (such as removing the promotional badge), the system will:
• Immediately record the violation and permanently remove your project from the program
• Deduct unused promotional reward credits from your account
• Send a violation notification email
• Mark your account to prohibit resubmission of that project
• One-Strike Rule: With just one violation, your project will be permanently removed from the program and cannot be resubmitted
• Application Deletion: You can delete rejected promotion applications that allow resubmission at any time, but approved applications cannot be deleted

5. Anti-Abuse Policy

To maintain the integrity of the program, we strictly prohibit the following behaviors:

• Creating fake or content-free projects solely to obtain rewards
• Using multiple GitHub accounts or Stima API accounts to circumvent submission limits
• Frequently adding/removing promotional badges to attempt to circumvent regular checks
• Automating or batch submitting applications in any improper way
• Submitting promotional applications by non-project participants

Users who violate the anti-abuse policy may face:

• Immediate revocation of all reward credits
• Permanent ban from participating in the promotion program
• In severe cases, possible restriction or termination of Stima API account privileges

Violation Handling Statement

To maintain a fair participation environment, Stima API reserves the right to execute the following actions against users who violate promotion terms:

• Blacklist the account, permanently losing eligibility to participate in promotional activities
