### Will my account get banned if I use this tool?
Currently no user has reported their account getting banned after using Zotify.
We highly recommend using Zotify with a burner account.
Alternatively, there is a configuration option labled ```DOWNLOAD_REAL_TIME```, this limits the download speed to the duration of the song being downloaded thus not appearing suspicious.
This option is much slower and is only recommended for premium users who wish to download songs in 320kbps without buying premium on a burner account.
**Use Zotify at your own risk**, the developers of Zotify are not responsible if your account gets banned.
### What do I do if I see "Your session has been terminated"?
If you see this, don't worry! Just try logging back in. If you see the incorrect username or password error, reset your password and you should be able to log back in.
