Domain Name Abuse Policy
v.1 July 20, 2023
Use of the .box domain name registry (the “.box registry”) and all domain names registered thereunder, is subject to this Domain Name Abuse Policy. Please follow this policy when using our products and services. We may modify this policy so please check back here.
You agree not to use .box domain names in connection with:
- Spam: Do not send or promote unsolicited bulk messages, whether bulk marketing or otherwise.
- Malware: Do not intentionally transmit viruses, worms, defects, Trojan horses, malware, or any other content that may harm user devices, apps, servers, or personal data.
- Phishing and identity theft: Do not capture people’s information under misleading or fraudulent pretenses, such as gaining login credentials or credit card information through fake web pages. Do not use stolen credentials or financial instruments to register domain names.
- Pharming and DNS hacking: Do not redirect DNS traffic from the intended website destination to a fake site through the use of DNS hijacking or interference.
- Fast-flux techniques: Do not intentionally use fast-flux techniques to avoid detection in order to conduct illegal activities on domain names.
- Botnet control and command practices: Do not use a network of poisoned or compromised computers to inflict harm on valid computer services. This includes using this coordinated network to launch denial-of-service (DDos) attacks.
- Hacking: Do not illegally penetrate computers, accounts, networks or security defenses of the .box Registry or those of any .box registry partners. This includes any attempt that serves as a precursor to an attempted system hack.
- Child sexual abuse imagery: We have a zero tolerance policy towards content that exploits children. Do not publish or distribute child sexual abuse imagery.
- Illegal content: Do not host the distribution or publication of any information that is in violation of any applicable laws or regulations.
If your .box domain name is cancelled or transferred in accordance with this Abuse Policy or in accordance with the Registration Agreement, your
corresponding NFT will also be cancelled or cancelled and reissued to the transferee.
