Hi Avinash, thank you for your message!
One Case Number is: 09254941
Another Case Number: 09067273
Then I had some Appeal ID in my mail: Appeal[C-p0E1ZkhlEmkk]
I did a GDPR Request to find out the reason why I was banned, there the Case Number: 09081814
I didn’t get any answer with a reason why I was banned. The ban still persists. Last answer to an appeal was “We will no longer consider additional requests to appeal this case.”
I stopped implementing ChatGPT for my customers since this is a huge risk for them and for my business.
