# Customer Support Policies

## Expected Response Time <a href="#expected_response_time" id="expected_response_time"></a>

Most customer support requests will be responded to within one business day (often much sooner). If there is a site-wide problem that generates a large volume of requests, we may choose to respond via [our Twitter feed](http://twitter.com/stockcharts), instead of individually.

## Scope of Support <a href="#scope_of_support" id="scope_of_support"></a>

As a website operator, we are limited in the kind of technical problems that we can troubleshoot and provide help with. In general, we are only able to provide support concerning the use of the tools on our website. We are not able to provide direct help for problems that are specific to an individual computer's configuration or Internet connection, although we may be able to provide general guidance on how to narrow down such problems.

Additionally, we are unable to provide financial advice, chart interpretations or indicator recommendations. We are not financial advisers or counselors.

## Abusive Behavior Restrictions <a href="#abusive_behavior_restrictions" id="abusive_behavior_restrictions"></a>

While the vast majority of our customers abide by our policies above, people that consistently violate those policies may be banned from receiving Customer Support replies in the future.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.stockcharts.com/learning-more/policies-and-limitations/customer-support-policies.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
