Acceptable Use Policy

This Acceptable Use Policy ("AUP") sets out what you must not do with the GPUBox Service. It supplements our Terms of Service. Breach of this AUP is material breach of the Terms.

1. Illegal content and conduct

You must not use the Service to generate, store, request, or distribute:

• child sexual abuse material (CSAM); any sexual content involving minors; sexualised depictions of fictional minors;
• content that incites or facilitates terrorism or violent extremism;
• content that promotes or facilitates serious self-harm or suicide;
• content that incites violence, harassment, or unlawful discrimination against an individual or a protected group;
• content designed to commit fraud, identity theft, phishing, financial-market manipulation, tax evasion, or money laundering;
• content that infringes a third party's intellectual property (including unlicensed copies of copyrighted works) or violates confidentiality / trade-secret obligations;
• malware, exploits, or instructions whose primary purpose is to compromise systems you do not have authorisation over;
• any content that breaches applicable law in the United Kingdom or the jurisdiction you are operating from.

2. Privacy and personal data

• Do not submit special-category personal data (UK GDPR Art. 9), criminal-offence data (Art. 10), children's personal data, biometric data used for unique identification, or PCI cardholder data, unless we have separately and expressly agreed to support that processing in writing.
• Do not use the Service to surveil or profile individuals without a lawful basis or to make significant decisions affecting them without appropriate human review.
• You must have lawful authority for any personal data you transmit and you must give the data subjects the notices required by law.

3. Service abuse

You must not:

• attempt to circumvent rate limits, billing, the per-call cap, or any other technical limit;
• share API keys outside your tenant or resell access without our written agreement;
• probe, scan, or load-test the Service beyond your normal use, or in a manner that materially degrades the Service for other customers;
• attempt to reverse-engineer, decompile, or extract the model weights or other proprietary configuration we use to provide the Service;
• use the Service to train a competing AI model on outputs we generate.

4. AI-specific rules

• Do not represent AI-generated content as authored by a real identifiable person without their consent.
• Do not generate content designed to impersonate, defame, or deceive a specific real person, brand, or institution into believing the content is genuine.
• Do not use the Service to generate non-consensual sexual imagery, deepfakes designed to harass, or AI-generated voice clones of real people without their consent.
• High-risk professional applications (medical diagnosis, legal advice given to consumers, safety-critical systems, autonomous financial trading at scale) require a written agreement with us before deployment.

5. Enforcement

We may, at our discretion: warn you; require you to remove or stop producing the offending content; rate-limit or suspend your tenant; revoke API keys without refund; terminate your account; report unlawful content to law enforcement or the relevant regulator.

We do not actively read your inputs and outputs. We do reserve the right to inspect a sample of traffic where we have a reasonable belief of AUP breach, and to investigate any abuse report. Where we do so, we will act with the minimum scope necessary.

6. Reporting violations

If you believe content generated through GPUBox violates this AUP or the law, contact us at [email protected] with the request id (in the response headers) and a description of the issue. We will investigate and respond promptly.

7. Changes

We will post material changes to this AUP with at least 14 days' notice on this page. Continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance.
