When you purchase web hosting, you agree to abide by the provider's Acceptable Use Policy (AUP). This policy outlines the types of content and activities that are prohibited on their servers. These restrictions are in place to ensure security, legal compliance, and fair resource usage for all customers on the shared network.

Commonly restricted content includes:

• Illegal Material: Content that violates any law, such as copyrighted files shared without permission or promoting illegal activities.
• Malware & Harmful Scripts: Software designed to damage, disrupt, or gain unauthorized access to systems.
• Spam & Phishing: Content used for unsolicited bulk email or fraudulent attempts to steal personal information.
• Excessive Resource Usage: Scripts or processes that consume disproportionate server CPU, memory, or bandwidth, affecting other sites.

Hosting providers actively monitor for violations. If prohibited content is found, they will typically:

1. Send a notification requesting immediate removal.
2. Suspend the hosting account if the issue is not resolved promptly.
3. Terminate service for repeated or severe violations.

To avoid problems, always review your host's AUP before publishing content. If you're unsure if something is allowed, contact their support team for clarification. Responsible hosting helps keep the internet safer and more reliable for everyone.
