Am I allowed to use Overwolf, without being banned or suspended from Warframe?

Question

What is Overwolf?

My message from support.

"I have recently seen a Topic on the forums about a person's friend that has been banned/suspended, yet his friend claimed he only had "Overwolf" in the background.

Now I'm not going to get inside their business, but it did make me cautious whether I should even run it while Warframe was on.

I'm going to use Overwolf for recording, and for a FPS Meter purposes, I might later in the future decide to use it for live streaming, If I continue to use Overwolf.

So my question is. Am I allowed to use Overwolf without being banned or suspended?

Thanks!"

But DE didn't really answer my question... seems like a bot message.

So Ill ask you guys instead, have you tried Overwolf with Warframe, and had no trouble using it? Or know any information that I can use it and not be banned/suspended?
Because if you reply with a "maybe" or "I don't know", then I'm better off not to take the risk. Which is also fine.

Thanks for your time.

I don't see how a recording/streaming program can get you banned...

Warframe seems to have an auto-ban system in for using cheating programs and stuff, but I don't know the extent of it. All I've seen happen is my game close when I forget to close Cheat Engine and say "don't have that open pls"

I wouldn't use it until I received an answer from the support. You will just have to wait, it takes some time to process and answer all the requests.

They did respond.

I have to be careful, because even though it's a recording program, DE could detect it as some sort of cheat/hack.
Really don't want to wait 1-2 weeks to get my account back from a mistake.

i don't have Overwolf, but if it really only records and has a fps meter i'd think i would be fine. who knows maybe the anti-cheat system warframe has thinks it is a hack program?

but don't take my word for it I don't know much about this stuff :(
