As Scaleway place great importance on keeping the internet safe and complying with legislation, it has set up a form allowing you to report illegal content or behaviour hosted on its services by one of its customers.

We hereby remind you that reporting content or activity as illegal in order to obtain its removal or to stop its distribution, when you know this information to be inaccurate, is punishable by one year’s imprisonment and a fine of 15,000 euros.
You can obtain information concerning the host and/or owner of the IP addresses, servers or websites on which the illegal content or behaviour is hosted, by using an online IP address or domain name search tool, commonly known as the “Who Is” service.

What information should be included in my report?
In order to analyse and process your request, Scaleway requires certain information.
Reports which do not contain sufficient information will not be processed.
In order to help you provide the required information, please see the definitions provided below:
In accordance with the French Law on confidence in the digital economy (LCEN), the reporting of illegal content also requires the following information to be communicated:
if you are a legal entity – your corporate form, business name and your email address
if you are an administrative authority – authority name and email address
How is my report processed?
Once you have completed the report abuse form available at this address https://abuse.scaleway.com, an email confirming the opening of your report will be sent to the contact address provided in the form.
After you confirm your report, the report is verified by the Trust & Safety team. The team verifies the exactness of the report, that all of the necessary information has been provided for the report to be processed and whether the report indeed relates to explicitly illegal behaviour or content with regard to French regulations and the evidence and information you have provided.
If your report meets the above criteria, it will be validated by the Trust & Safety team and sent to Scaleway’s customer so that the necessary corrective measures can be taken.
You will receive the customer’s answer via the email address provided in the form.
Should Scaleway’s customer not respond, or should the transferred report not be processed correctly, appropriate measures will be taken by Scaleway. These measures may vary from a simple warning to termination of all services of said customer.
If your report is rejected, you will be informed of the reasons why by email.
Please note that massively reporting the same practices or content forces the Trust & Safety team to carry out unnecessary actions which have a negative impact on their work. As such, it is counterproductive to massively report the same practices or content.
We would like to remind you that it is important to remain courteous when communicating with the Trust & Safety team. The team will not process any reports containing offensive, vulgar or threatening language.
