Terms and Conditions: Ethical Guidelines
Topic | Context |
---|---|
Illegal or unethical business models |
Questions involving illicit or unethical practices will not be answered. This includes:
|
Suspended or restricted accounts | Account suspensions and restrictions are complex and highly individualized. Support for these issues falls outside the mentor’s responsibilities. |
Document handling | Mentors can clarify what documents you may need to provide, but they’re not allowed to review, prepare, or modify any official documentation. |
Unsupported suppliers or marketplaces |
Assistance is limited to suppliers and marketplaces officially supported by AutoDS. |
Store review limitations | Full store audits require deeper analysis beyond the scope of ticket-based mentorship. You’re welcome to share screenshots or ask targeted questions instead. |
Product recommendations | Instead of giving you a ready-to-use product list, mentors focus on helping you learn how to research and identify high-potential items. |
Mentor refusal | In cases of inappropriate behavior or violations of the program’s purpose, mentors reserve the right to stop responding or remove a student from the program. |
Availability |
Mentors aim to respond within 24 business hours. Replies during weekends may take slightly longer, depending on availability. Note: If you haven't received a reply within this timeframe, please follow up in the same ticket. |
