How to Submit a Notice

- Identify the exact location of content (URL/path, timestamps) and describe why it is illegal with references.
- Include a good-faith statement that the information is accurate and you are authorized to act.
Processing of Notices
Hostyt reviews notices diligently, objectively, and in a timely manner; incomplete notices may be rejected with reasons where feasible.
Statements of Reasons
When restricting or removing content, Hostyt issues statements of reasons including decision taken, facts and circumstances, any automated tools used, applicable legal/contractual grounds, and redress options.
Reporting Criminal Offences
Hostyt reports suspected offences involving threats to life or safety to competent authorities as required by DSA Article 18.
