"You may not use Klaviyo to engage in any activity that interferes with or disrupts the platform or its infrastructure, including but not limited to transmitting viruses, malware, or other harmful code, or attempting to gain unauthorized access to any part of the platform.— Excerpt from Klaviyo's Klaviyo Acceptable Use Policy
1. REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: This provision engages the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (CFAA) for US-based violations, and equivalent statutes in the EU (Network and Information Security Directive) and UK (Computer Misuse Act) for international users. The provision creates contractual liability in addition to any applicable criminal or civil liability. 2. GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Low. This is a standard platform security provision found in substantially all SaaS acceptable use policies. The primary compliance implication is ensuring that authorized API access and integration configurations do not inadvertently trigger this provision. 3. JURISDICTION FLAGS: Developer and API users should ensure that automated data import and integration workflows comply with Klaviyo's API rate limits and access authorization requirements to avoid triggering this provision. EU users should note that unauthorized access provisions may engage national cybercrime statutes in addition to contractual enforcement. 4. CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Businesses using third-party integrations or API-connected tools to access Klaviyo should ensure those integrations operate within authorized parameters. Vendor contracts for third-party Klaviyo connectors should include representations about authorized access and security compliance. 5. COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: IT and security teams should review all API integrations and automated workflows connected to Klaviyo to confirm they operate within authorized access parameters. Security incident response plans should address the potential for account suspension following any detected security event involving Klaviyo credentials.
