Acceptable Use Policy

What you cannot publish or do on Outbox, how to report it, and what happens when someone breaks the rules.

Last updated: October 1, 2026

What is prohibited

Phishing and impersonation: pages imitating banks, brands, services or people to obtain credentials, payments or data.
Malware: distributing or linking to malicious software, exploits, in-browser crypto miners or deceptive downloads.
Scams and fraud: investment schemes, fake giveaways, sale of non-existent goods, forged documents.
Child sexual abuse material: zero tolerance; we report it to NCMEC and the relevant authorities and preserve evidence as the law requires.
Illegal content: incitement to violence, terrorism, trafficking in illegal goods or services, non-consensual intimate imagery, doxxing.
Harassment and hate: threats, targeted harassment or content attacking people based on protected characteristics.
Rights infringement: content infringing copyright or trademarks (see Copyright).
Spam and SEO abuse: mass pages to manipulate search engines, deceptive redirects, link farms.
Infrastructure abuse: using Outbox as a CDN for unrelated files, evading quotas, mass account creation, attacking or probing systems (except as allowed in Security).
Third parties' personal data published without a legal basis, especially sensitive data.

How to report

Use the form at Support → Report content or the Report link shown on every published page. You can also write to hello@out-box.dev. Phishing and malware reports are reviewed first.

What we do

Take the page down (it then responds with HTTP 451 and a notice).
Suspend the account, temporarily or permanently, in serious or repeated cases.
Preserve evidence and notify authorities when the law requires it.

If you believe we removed your content by mistake, write to hello@out-box.dev explaining why. Where possible, a different person from the one who made the decision reviews the appeal.
