+## `is_3pid_allowed`
+
+_First introduced in Synapse v1.53.0_
+
+```python
+async def is_3pid_allowed(self, medium: str, address: str, registration: bool) -> bool
+```
+
+Called when attempting to bind a third-party identifier (i.e. an email address or a phone
+number). The module is given the medium of the third-party identifier (which is `email` if
+the identifier is an email address, or `msisdn` if the identifier is a phone number) and
+its address, as well as a boolean indicating whether the attempt to bind is happening as
+part of registering a new user. The module must return a boolean indicating whether the
+identifier can be allowed to be bound to an account on the local homeserver.
+
+If multiple modules implement this callback, they will be considered in order. If a
+callback returns `True`, Synapse falls through to the next one. The value of the first
+callback that does not return `True` will be used. If this happens, Synapse will not call
+any of the subsequent implementations of this callback.
