SERVICE OF PROCESS: SUBPOENAS, WARRANTS, COURT ORDERS

DreamHost respectfully requests that all subpoenas, warrants, or other orders be personally served upon our California Registered Agent:

C T Corporation System 330 North Brand Boulevard, Suite 700 Glendale, CA 91203

All service of process must be addressed to the appropriate entity (e.g., DreamHost, LLC). Service addressed to an improper party may be rejected and unable to be processed.

While we accept service at our corporate headquarters, serving our Registered Agent will result in immediate notifications to our Legal team and quicker turnaround times.

Please note that DreamHost does not accept subpoenas, warrants, or other court orders by email or physical mail (including certified mail). All data requests and orders of this nature must be personally served according to federal guidelines. DreamHost will not process any subpoenas, warrants, or other court orders unless they have been personally served upon either to DreamHost or C T Corporation System by a valid process server.

Preservation Requests

DreamHost accepts preservation requests from law enforcement in connection with official criminal investigations. Pursuant to 18 USC § 2703(f), we'll preserve the requested account records for a 90-day period pending our receipt of formal legal process. We will also accept one 90-day extension if received within the first 90-day period.

Note that preserved data will be deleted immediately following the current 90 day period if we are not sent an extension or served with a production order. The statute does not provide for additional extensions, so the maximum time we will preserve data for is 180 days.

Preservation requests can either be served upon our Registered Agent (see address above), can be mailed to legal@dreamhost.com, or can be physically mailed to:

PMB #327
417 Associated Rd.
