This article is here to break it down and help you navigate these alerts with ease.
What Are Automated Behavior Alerts?
So, what exactly are automated behavior alerts? Think of them as early warning signs. They pop up when our system detects usage patterns that resemble automated processes—like excessively high requests or data mining that just doesn’t fit the mold of typical user behavior.
These alerts are a precaution, ensuring that our service remains fair and accessible to everyone.
It’s important to note that according to our terms and conditions, News Group Newspapers Limited has a strict no-tolerance policy for automated access or data collection without explicit permission.
