	If you believe a problematic content report has not been satisfactorily acted on, or if you have been subjected to a moderation action that you wish to challenge, you may be able to submit an appeal, following the office actions policy (proposal, to be adopted) and the appeal routes explained to you at the time or in the help pages of the relevant Market or Portal.

	The Foundation would reserve the right to suspend (temporarily, or permanently) the handling of reports or other correspondence from users or third parties, whether about allegedly illegal or otherwise problematic content or conduct, or requesting appeals against moderation actions, if such correspondence was made in bad faith, repetitive, unfounded, and/or abusive. In appropriate circumstances, your email address may even be blocked on the email system, and you would then need to contact the Foundation at its postal address in Geneva if you wish to further correspond with it during that block. For less serious cases (for example up to three polite emails about one or more meritless complaints), this is likely to be temporary. More frequent or more abusive communications are more likely to lead to permanent measures.
