No Adult Material Policy

Due to different cultures, material that is appropriate in some countries may not be appropriate in others. For this reason and many others, we maintain a strict "No Adult Material Permitted Policy".

WHC defines "Adult Material" as any of the following:

1. Any photos or videos showing frontal nudity on either men or women.
2. Any photos or videos showing women's bare chests and nipples.
3. Any audio clips or text containing sexually explicit material.

1. Any sites with direct links to other sites containing such material.
2. Any site engaged in the sale of sexually explicit items.

In addition we reserve the right to determine what might be considered "sexually explicit" or "sexually related". If your site contains material that you are unsure about, please let us know before placing the order.

Adult Material Policy FAQ

Why does WHC not allow adult material on their servers?

WHC has the privilege of hosting many family sites including self-help, rehabilitation support groups, churches, and many others. As one of the world's leading Web hosting facilities, we hope our policies will set new standards in the industry as to what kind of material is "acceptable".

As a customer, how would this policy benefit me?

WHC customers enjoy the assurance that if the IP addressing ever gets mixed up, their domain name will never pull up an adult site. In addition, WHC customers enjoy the consistently fast servers and clear network. Unlike some other Web hosting facilities, we do not have our network congested with users downloading pornographic images.

Adult sites are completely legal... What about "freedom of speech"?

As a citizen of any country with freedom of speech, you have the choice of using another Web hosting facility to host your material. We do not take away the rights of any individual. Just because you can't buy liquor at McDonald's, does not mean you can't buy it at the liquor store of your choice.
