+### HSTS
+
+The HSTS policy configures [HTTP Strict Transport Security](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Strict-Transport-Security), instructing browsers to enforce HTTPS connections to the host for a specified duration.
+
+For example, the following policy configures a 30-day HSTS duration and extends the policy to all subdomains of the host:
+
+```yaml
+hsts:
+  maxAge: 2592000
+  includeSubDomains: true
+```
+
+When deployed behind a proxy or load balancer that terminates TLS upstream of the Ingress Controller, enable `behindProxy`. In this mode, NGINX uses the `X-Forwarded-Proto` request header to determine whether the connection is HTTPS, rather than checking the `$https` variable directly:
+
+```yaml
+hsts:
+  maxAge: 2592000
+  behindProxy: true
+```
+
+A VirtualServer that references an HSTS policy must:
+
+- Enable [TLS termination]({{< ref "/nic/configuration/virtualserver-and-virtualserverroute-resources.md#virtualservertls" >}}), or `behindProxy` if TLS is terminated upstream.
+- Reference the policy in the VirtualServer [spec]({{< ref "/nic/configuration/virtualserver-and-virtualserverroute-resources.md#virtualserver-specification" >}}). It is not allowed to reference an HSTS policy in a [route]({{< ref "/nic/configuration/virtualserver-and-virtualserverroute-resources.md#virtualserverroute" >}}) or in a VirtualServerRoute [subroute]({{< ref "/nic/configuration/virtualserver-and-virtualserverroute-resources.md#virtualserverroutesubroute" >}}).
+
+If the conditions above are not met, NGINX will send the `500` status code to clients.
+
+{{< call-out class="note" >}}
+
+The feature is implemented using the NGINX `add_header` directive and the [ngx_http_ssl_module](https://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_ssl_module.html) `$https` variable.

+
+#### HSTS Merging Behavior
+
+A VirtualServer can reference only a single HSTS policy. Every subsequent reference will be ignored. For example, here we reference two policies:
+
+```yaml
+policies:
+- name: hsts-policy-one
+- name: hsts-policy-two
+```
+
+In this example NGINX Ingress Controller will use the configuration from the first policy reference `hsts-policy-one`, and ignores `hsts-policy-two`.

 ## Using Policy
 
 You can use the usual `kubectl` commands to work with Policy resources, just as with built-in Kubernetes resources.
