    We reserve the right to provide additional scrutiny on, suspend the use of and/or discontinue access to Notion for individuals and organizations who use the product related to industries like gambling and multi-level marketing.

While we have systems that help us quickly identify and remove offending content, we also want viewers of Notion pages to have the ability to report content that violates our terms.
