Acceptable Use Policy (AUP)
Effective Date: May 21, 2026
Last Updated: May 21, 2026
1. Purpose & Enforcement Scope
This Acceptable Use Policy ("Policy") establishes a zero-tolerance framework for the use of Sendme.alt. By utilizing our signaling infrastructure, you agree to comply entirely with these strict constraints.
While our Zero-Knowledge architecture prevents us from directly auditing the contents of the physical files you transfer, we heavily monitor our signaling endpoints. We possess the capability and the sovereign right to permanently ban network access for any entity identified as abusing the platform.
2. Zero-Tolerance Content
You are unequivocally prohibited from utilizing our Service to broker the transfer of the following materials. Violation will result in immediate termination of access:
Illegal Content
Any materials that violate local, state, federal, or international law, including the promotion of terrorism, illegal arms, or illicit narcotics.
Malware & System Exploits
Distributing viruses, trojans, ransomware, logic bombs, or any malicious code engineered to compromise hardware, software, or network security.
Exploitative & Extreme Material
Any content depicting the exploitation of minors, non-consensual explicit media, or extreme real-world violence.
Piracy & Copyright Abuse
Engaging in the unauthorized distribution of copyrighted works, proprietary software (warez), trade secrets, or stolen databases.
3. System & Network Abuse
Our infrastructure exists to facilitate peer-to-peer handshakes. You agree not to degrade or weaponize this infrastructure. The following actions are strictly banned:
Denial of Service (DoS/DDoS)
Intentionally overloading, flooding, or executing volumetric attacks against our signaling APIs or WebRTC STUN/TURN servers.
Automated Exploitation
Utilizing scripts, bots, or scrapers to rapidly generate transfer tokens, spam WebRTC offers, or harvest connection metadata.
Platform Weaponization
Using the Service as a command-and-control (C2) channel or attempting to reverse-engineer our endpoints to bypass rate limits.
4. Spam & Unauthorized Sharing
Sendme.alt is built for intentional, consent-driven file sharing. You may not use the Service to distribute unsolicited mass messages, spam files, or trick unaware users into accepting unwanted payloads.
5. Incident Reporting & Law Enforcement
Because we do not host user data, we cannot comply with takedown requests for specific files. However, we aggressively enforce IP-level bans against abusers of our signaling network.
If you receive dangerous files, immediately discard them and report the sender to your local cybersecurity authorities. To report critical network abuse or API exploitation, please alert our security team via our official GitHub repository. We cooperate fully with law enforcement regarding systemic network attacks.
