Proxy access must be used for lawful, authorized purposes and in accordance with destination terms, privacy obligations, and applicable rules.

Steps

1. Confirm that the workflow has a lawful purpose and appropriate authorization.
2. Respect robots directives, access controls, rate limits, and destination terms where applicable.
3. Minimize collection of personal or sensitive data.
4. Use bounded concurrency and backoff to avoid service disruption.
5. Stop the workflow and investigate unexpected access or data behavior.

For account-specific values, use the endpoint, port, credentials, and location shown in your MaskProxy dashboard. Do not publish proxy credentials in screenshots, tickets, or public code repositories.
