### No Advertising
Advertising hosting companies in your username is not allowed.

## Partnered Hosts
You may notice some users on our server have blue names, this indicates that they are representing a host whom
we have partnered with.

### Benefits of Partnering
All of our partnered hosts must prove that they are legally operating a business entity, are able to uphold
basic security practices, and in most cases have shown that they are using Pterodactyl in unique ways.

1. Custom role on our Discord server and the ability to directly solicit clients who might be looking for hosting.
2. Permission to include a link to your company on both your username, and all company associates.
3. Access to a private partners only Discord support channel for direct communication with the Project Team.
4. Call yourself a partner on your website!
5. We'll link your logo on our website as a partner.

Overall, partnering with Pterodactyl is honestly not all that thrilling, and that is by design. We don't want companies
trying to partner solely for perks and benefits, we want to partner with companies that know what they're doing and
are there for the community and helping to build a great product.

### Becoming a Partner
We are quite selective about who we partner with. This is for a few reasons, the first being that we don't want to
allow any random hosting company to partner with us and then go under, or, be subject to a data breach.

Please review the requirements below to see if you might qualify to become a partner with us. If you believe
you meet these requirements, please send an email to dane@[this domain].io. Please refrain from contacting any
of the Project Team directly about this, it is disruptive and rather annoying.

1. *MUST* be able to show proof of business registration in your country.
2. *MUST* be able to show an easily found page on your company website that lists at least two (2) sources for contact
from the following list: ticketing system, public twitter page (with activity), phone number, email address,
and/or company address.
3. Your company must have at least 6 months of public operations under its belt. Sorry, but we cannot accept companies
that have not yet launched, or are just launched. We highly prefer companies that have been around for at least a year.
4. Please include information about how you're using Pterodactyl — including any customizations or features that make
you stand out from the rest.

Please ensure your email requesting partnership is sent from your company domain. We will not accept requests from
email addresses not belonging to the requesting company's domain.

### Terms & Conditions
1. We reserve the exclusive right to terminate partnerships at any time, without notice, for any reason.
2. You are responsible for the behavior of your staff on our Discord server, and are not immune to the server rules.
We have a 1 strike policy for our hosts: we'll give you a stern warning once if someone breaks our rules and is kicked
or muted because of it. After that your partnered status will be revoked. If any of your staff are banned your host's
partnership status will be terminated immediately.
3. If you are rebranding your company, or otherwise dissolving or creating a new company using the ashes of your current one,
you are _required_ to disclose this to any Project Team member, and your role may be revoked depending on the circumstances.
4. Please ensure you and your staff maintain appropriate nicknames on our server. Make sure your company URL or name is
displayed in the nick. For example `Dane | Pterodactyl.io` is a good nick, `spicy mcnugget` is not — but `spicy mcnugget | Pterodactyl` is.
5. Be reasonable with the amount of staff you want to have a role assigned to in our server, we'd prefer you not have 20
or 30 people that need a role, and we will likely deny those requests. Don't forget you're responsible for their actions.
