2. AI Crawler Policy

We welcome AI assistants that help users discover and understand our services, but we opt out of bulk model-training crawlers. Our robots.txt reflects this distinction.

Explicitly allowed

• •GPTBot (kept in OpenAI’s corpus so ChatGPT can cite HostCloud)
• •OAI-SearchBot
• •ChatGPT-User
• •ClaudeBot
• •PerplexityBot

Blocked (training-only crawlers)

• •Google-Extended
• •Bytespider
• •CCBot

Blocking training-only crawlers does not affect Google Search indexing or live browsing by assistants such as ChatGPT and Claude when a user asks about HostCloud. This page mirrors our robots.txt exactly.
