4.1 Prohibited Content

Your forum must not contain or promote:

  • Content that is illegal under applicable law
  • Content that infringes on intellectual property rights
  • Sexually explicit material that violates the law
  • Hate speech, harassment, or content that promotes violence
  • Malware, phishing attempts, or other harmful code
  • Spam or commercial content intended solely for profit without adding value

4.2 Resource Usage

While we provide free hosting, we have certain limitations on resource usage to ensure fair service for all users:

  • Storage space: Up to 200MB
  • Bandwidth: Up to 20GB monthly
  • CPU usage: Not to exceed 10% of server resources for more than 15 minutes

Forums exceeding these limits may experience temporary throttling or may need to upgrade to a premium plan.

5. Inactive Account & Forum Deletion Policy

To ensure active engagement and efficient resource management, we enforce the following policy for inactive accounts:

  • 1. Account Inactivity – If a user does not log into their client dashboard for 30 consecutive days, their forum will be flagged as inactive.
  • 2. Forum Suspension – After 30 days of inactivity, the forum will be suspended, restricting access to both administrators and users.
  • 3. Deletion Notice – Once suspended, the forum will be scheduled for permanent deletion within 7 days. A notification will be sent via email and/or support ticket, allowing the user to request reinstatement before deletion.
  • 4. Forum Recovery – If the user replies to the support ticket before the deletion date, we may reinstate the forum at our discretion. However, once deleted, forums cannot be restored.
  • 5. No Liability – We are not responsible for any data loss resulting from forum suspension or deletion due to inactivity. It is the user’s responsibility to maintain regular access to their account to prevent deletion.

By using our free forum hosting service, you agree to this policy and acknowledge that continued inactivity will result in the permanent removal of your forum..

6. Termination

We may terminate or suspend your account and access to the service immediately, without prior notice or liability, for any reason, including but not limited to a breach of the Terms.

Upon termination, your right to use the service will immediately cease. If you wish to terminate your account, you may simply discontinue using the service or contact us for account deletion.

7. Backups and Data Loss

While we provide tools for you to create backups, you are responsible for regularly backing up your forum data. Free Forum Hosting is not responsible for any data loss resulting from hardware failures, software issues, or any other cause.

We recommend creating regular backups and storing them outside of our service for maximum protection.
