PayPal Question? - GoFuckYourself.com

On a mainstream site that sells non adult items and services can you still link to an adult site and accept PayPal as a payment option?

Example: selling jewelry and have a text link advertisement to an adult site. Can I use PayPal as a payment option for the jewelry as the jewelry site is not adult nor do I sell adult related products or services?

Couldnt find that information anywhere on the PayPal Terms so curious if anyone who deals in mainstream here has come across that situation.

If you link to a porn site they will more then likley freeze and terminate your account without notice.
Sorry

Is that just an implied rule with them or am I missing something in their terms of service? Their accepted use policy only lists using PayPal as the payment option for "mature" items and services as being prohibited. Says nothing about what is accepted as content on site in question.

Considering that their TOS is wide open to interpretation, and they can pretty do what they want with your account and your money, I wouldn't chance it.
