Acceptable Use Policy
What may not be hosted or done with DomainHostly domains, hosting and cloud services.
Last updated 16 October 2026
Why this policy exists
Our hosting and cloud services are shared with other customers and connected to the wider internet. This policy protects them, you and us. It forms part of our Terms of Use.
You must not use our services to
- Host or send anything illegal in India or where it is accessed, including child sexual abuse material, terrorist content or pirated software, films and music.
- Send spam or bulk email to people who have not opted in, or run open mail relays.
- Host phishing pages, malware, botnets, or command-and-control servers.
- Attack, scan or probe other systems without permission, including denial-of-service attacks.
- Mine cryptocurrency on shared hosting, or use resources in a way that degrades service for other customers.
- Infringe trademarks, copyright or other people's rights, or impersonate others.
- Sell, store or share personal data without a lawful basis.
What happens if the policy is broken
We may remove content, limit resources, or suspend or end the service, depending on how serious the problem is. Where it is safe to do so we will contact you first. We report illegal content to the authorities when the law requires it. No refund is due for services suspended under this policy.
Report abuse
Report spam, phishing, malware or other abuse involving a DomainHostly-hosted site or domain to support@domainhostly.com with "Abuse" in the subject, including the domain or URL and evidence such as email headers. We act on valid reports within 24 hours.
