When a customer builds a website that violates our Terms of Service, we need to let them know:
- That they've violated one or more of our Terms of Service stipulations
- Which stipulation they violated
- That we've taken the site down
- That we've closed their account (though we have leeway to not do so)
To help speed the process, I've written a template for that email that you can easily edit and send in just a couple minutes. You'll find a link to that in the Resource section below.
