Essentially Amsterdam publishes content supplied by others, such as business listings in our directory, job ads and items readers send us. Under the EU Digital Services Act (Regulation (EU) 2022/2065) that makes us a hosting service. This page explains how to reach us and how to report content you believe is illegal.

Report illegal content

We do not use automated systems to decide on reports. Every report is read by a person.
