Acceptable Use Policy

This policy sets out what you may and may not publish or do with a website provided through SearchSoda Launchpad. It applies to every Launchpad site, whether on a .searchsoda.com address or your own connected domain. By subscribing to Launchpad you agree to these terms. It forms part of your subscription agreement with SearchSoda.

1. Prohibited content and activities

You must not use a Launchpad site to host, link to, promote, or facilitate any of the following:

• Adult content. Pornographic, sexually explicit, or adult-oriented material of any kind, and any service whose primary purpose is such content.
• Anything unlawful. Any content or activity that is illegal under the laws of the United Kingdom or the United States, including (without limit) fraud, the sale of illegal goods or controlled substances, counterfeit goods, and content that infringes intellectual-property rights.
• Pyramid schemes and MLM. Pyramid schemes, Ponzi schemes, matrix programmes, multi-level marketing (MLM), "get rich quick" schemes, and comparable recruitment-driven money-making models. These are prohibited by our hosting provider and are not permitted on Launchpad.
• Harmful or deceptive material. Malware, phishing, spyware, or any content designed to deceive, defraud, or compromise visitors.
• Abuse and hate. Content that harasses, threatens, or incites violence, or that promotes hatred against people based on a protected characteristic.
• Child safety. Any content that sexualises, endangers, or exploits minors. This results in immediate removal and a report to the relevant authorities.
• Spam and abuse of the platform. Bulk unsolicited email, misleading SEO manipulation, or using the site to attack or overload other systems.

2. Your responsibility

You are responsible for everything published on your site, including content you add yourself through the dashboard and anything submitted by your own visitors. You must hold all rights needed for the images, text, and other material you upload.

3. Enforcement

If we reasonably believe a site breaches this policy, we may pause it (take it offline) while we investigate, ask you to remove the offending material, or, for serious or repeated breaches, remove the site and close the account. Where the law requires it, or where a breach threatens the safety of others or the stability of the platform, we may act immediately and without notice. Breach of this policy is not grounds for a refund.

4. Third-party hosting

Launchpad sites are hosted on infrastructure operated by our hosting provider, whose own acceptable-use rules also apply to your site. The categories above are aligned with those rules; where the provider's terms are stricter, the stricter terms apply.

5. Questions
