The Acceptable Use Policy (AUP) is designed to protect the integrity, security, and reliability of the FlashRDP network. Violations of this AUP will result in immediate consequences, up to and including the permanent destruction of your services without a refund.

​
Permitted Use and Resources

You are granted full Administrator/root access to your server. Each plan includes the vCPU, RAM and storage listed for it. vCPUs are shared with other servers on the same host; RAM and storage are allocated to your server. You may not use your server in a way that degrades the host for other customers, such as sustained abuse of CPU, disk I/O or network capacity beyond normal use of your plan. You may use FlashRDP infrastructure to conduct business, host applications, run organizational workloads, or for personal projects, provided that all activities are legal, ethical, and do not negatively impact the underlying host node. Intentionally abusing the hardware limits to disrupt node stability may result in a resource cap or intervention.

​
Strictly Prohibited Activities

To maintain our 99.9% uptime target and pristine network reputation, the following activities are strictly prohibited on all FlashRDP infrastructure.
Zero Tolerance: Engaging in any of the following activities will result in the immediate and permanent termination of your server. All data is destroyed under the Data Destruction Protocol, and no refunds will be provided.
  • DDoS / DoS Attacks: Participating in, facilitating, or launching Distributed Denial of Service attacks (outbound DDoS/booters) is strictly forbidden.
  • Network Scanning: Running port scanners, vulnerability scanners, or attempting to map external networks without explicit written consent. (Note: Scanning your own FlashRDP server is permitted).
  • Malicious Scripts: Hosting or executing scripts designed to exploit vulnerabilities, brute-force credentials, or disrupt external systems.
  • Spam & Phishing: Sending unsolicited bulk email (spam), hosting phishing sites (e.g., fake PayPal/bank login pages), or utilizing our network to distribute malicious links.
  • Malware Distribution: Hosting or distributing viruses, trojans, ransomware, RATs, or botnet command-and-control servers.
  • Exploitative Material: Hosting, viewing, or distributing child exploitation material. This will result in an immediate ban and a report to the relevant authorities.
  • Financial Crime: Utilizing servers for carding, identity theft, or operating fraudulent financial schemes.

​
IP Blacklist Penalty

If your actions result in a FlashRDP IP address being blacklisted (e.g., Spamhaus, Barracuda), you will be held financially responsible for a $50.00 USD cleanup and replacement fee per affected IP. Affected services remain suspended until the fee is paid. Repeated or deliberate abuse leads to termination.

​
Restricted Activities

The following activities are not allowed on FlashRDP servers. If we find them, we may suspend or terminate the affected server:
  • Cryptocurrency mining: mining or any other sustained use of the CPU to generate cryptocurrency. Running blockchain nodes or trading bots is allowed.
  • Peer-to-peer file sharing: BitTorrent and other P2P sharing of content you don’t have the rights to distribute.
  • Open proxies and anonymity networks: open or public proxies, public VPN services, and Tor exit nodes.
  • Unlicensed streaming: IPTV or other streaming of content without a license from the rights holder.
  • Aggressive scraping: automated scraping that ignores robots.txt or a site’s terms, or overloads the target site.
  • Reselling: reselling or sub-letting FlashRDP servers to third parties without our written agreement.
If you’re not sure whether a workload is allowed, ask the Presale Desk before you deploy.

​
Fair Bandwidth Policy

All FlashRDP plans come with a High-Speed (1 Gbps, 1000 GB per month included) network connection. Bandwidth is provided at full 1 Gbps speeds up to 1000 GB of data transfer per month, whatever your billing cycle. The allowance resets on the first day of each calendar month. Your first period runs from your purchase date to the first day of the next calendar month, so it may be shorter than a full month. After 1000 GB of usage in a month, your network speed will be automatically limited to 512 Kbps to ensure fair resource allocation across the node. If you require continued high-speed transit after hitting the cap, you can buy additional bandwidth by support ticket at a rate of $5.00 per 1000 GB.

​
DMCA Policy

FlashRDP infrastructure is located in the United States (Phoenix, AZ) and France (Paris). This policy applies to services in both locations. We respond to notices of claimed copyright infringement under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), 17 U.S.C. § 512. Designated agent. Send copyright notices and counter-notices to our designated agent: FlashRDP LLC, Attn: DMCA Agent, 30 N Gould St, Ste R, Sheridan, WY 82801, United States. Email: legal@flashrdp.com. What a notice must include (17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3)(A)):
  1. A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or a person authorized to act for them.
  2. Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to be infringed (or a representative list, if several works are covered by one notice).
  3. Identification of the material claimed to be infringing, with enough information for us to find it, such as the IP address and URL.
  4. Your contact information: address, telephone number, and, if available, email address.
  5. A statement that you have a good faith belief that the use of the material is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
  6. A statement that the information in the notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you are authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner.
What happens after a valid notice:
  1. We forward the notice to the customer whose service hosts the material.
  2. The customer must remove or disable access to the material, or send a counter-notice, within 48 hours.
  3. If the customer does neither, we restrict access to the material or suspend the service.
  4. Where the material is manifestly illegal or the risk of harm is serious, we may restrict access or suspend the service as soon as we receive the notice, before step 2.
What a counter-notice must include (17 U.S.C. § 512(g)(3)):
  1. Your physical or electronic signature.
  2. Identification of the material that was removed or disabled, and where it appeared before it was removed or disabled.
  3. A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification.
  4. Your name, address, and telephone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for the judicial district of your address (or, if your address is outside the United States, any judicial district in which FlashRDP may be found), and that you will accept service of process from the person who sent the notice or their agent.
Restoring material after a counter-notice. When we receive a valid counter-notice, we send a copy to the person who sent the original notice. We restore the material, or stop disabling access to it, no less than 10 and no more than 14 business days after we receive the counter-notice, unless the person who sent the notice tells us first that they have filed a court action to stop the customer from infringing. Repeat infringers. A repeat infringer is an account that has been the subject of valid DMCA notices on multiple occasions. We terminate the accounts of repeat infringers. EU notices. For content hosted in Paris, notices under the EU Digital Services Act can be sent to the same address.

​
Law Enforcement Cooperation

FlashRDP complies fully with valid legal processes and court orders. We reserve the right to immediately suspend your service and cooperate with law enforcement agencies if we suspect your server is involved in severe criminal activity. No refunds are provided if a service is suspended due to law enforcement intervention.

​
Network Management Rights

FlashRDP reserves the right to implement traffic management, bandwidth throttling, rate limiting, port filtering, and network shaping as reasonably necessary to maintain the stability, security, and performance of the FlashRDP network. This includes the right to block specific ports presenting network abuse risks without prior notice.
  • Outbound Port 25: To protect our IP reputation, outbound traffic on port 25 is blocked by default on all servers. We lift this block on request if you submit a valid business justification to our support team.

​
IP Addresses

IP addresses are assigned to your service from address space that FlashRDP leases from its network and data center providers. They are not your property and are not permanently tied to your service.
  • “Dedicated” means assigned to you, not owned by you. A dedicated IP address is used only by your service while that service is active and paid up to its due date. It gives you no ownership of the address and no right to keep it.
  • Unallocated addresses return to the pool. When a service is cancelled, terminated, or not renewed by its due date, its IP addresses become unallocated and may be assigned to another customer. We cannot reserve or restore them.
  • Addresses can change at any time. If a provider changes or ends the lease of a subnet, if FlashRDP ends that contract, or for network, security or abuse reasons, we may change the IP addresses of your service at any time. When we know about a change in advance, we email you 6 to 8 hours before it; otherwise we tell you as soon as we can.
You are responsible for updating anything that depends on your IP address, such as DNS records, allowlists and software licenses.

​
Right to Investigate & Refuse Service

FlashRDP reserves the right to investigate suspected AUP violations by accessing server metadata, network traffic logs, and resource utilization data as technically necessary to investigate abuse reports or fulfill law enforcement requests. This right does not extend to accessing the contents of your server without a valid legal order. FlashRDP reserves the right to refuse, suspend, or terminate service to any person or entity for any lawful reason, including prior AUP violations, ban evasion, fraud indicators, sanctions list matches, or abusive conduct, at FlashRDP’s sole discretion.

​
Set-Off, Reporting & Account Inactivity

  • Set-Off Rights: Any amounts owed by you - including late fees, IP cleanup penalties, or handling fees - may be deducted from your account credit. Set-off is applied only to amounts you owe and is shown on the invoice it pays.
  • Abuse Reporting Immunity: FlashRDP may report suspected illegal activity, child exploitation material, or credible threats of harm to appropriate law enforcement authorities. FlashRDP incurs no liability for making such reports in good faith, and you waive all claims against FlashRDP arising from any such report.
  • Account Inactivity: Accounts with no active services and no login activity for twelve (12) consecutive months may be purged after 30 days’ email notice. Signing in or using your credit during the notice period keeps the account active. If you ask during the notice period, we refund your remaining account credit; any account credit still on the account when it is purged is forfeited.
