Can escorts use Squarespace?

• Sexually explicit or obscene content
• Illegal activity (broadly defined)
• Harassment, threats, incitement to violence

Squarespace's Acceptable Use Policy does NOT mention escort services, adult services, or sex work anywhere. The relevant clauses are §6.3 ("don't publish sexually explicit or obscene material") and §6.6 ("don't violate any laws"). On paper, a professional escort website with tasteful photos and service descriptions shouldn't violate either clause. In practice, however, providers have reported having Squarespace sites randomly terminated without clear policy justification. The enforcement appears inconsistent — some escort sites run for years without issue, while others are taken down abruptly. The cascade risk is the biggest concern: Squarespace controls your website, domain, Acuity Scheduling, and email campaigns from a single account. If they decide to terminate, everything goes down at once — your site, your scheduling, your client communications. Domain transfers after termination are notoriously difficult. The AUP's enforcement clause gives Squarespace the right to terminate "at any time and for any reason" at their "sole discretion" — meaning even without a specific policy violation, you're at their mercy. For a professional website, self-hosted WordPress with BlushTheme (and your own domain registrar) gives you the same quality with full ownership.
