Acceptable Use Policy (AUP)

This Acceptable Use Policy outlines the rules, ethical responsibilities, and legal standards that govern the use of our remote access and IT management products, including GoMyid and GoMyit. The purpose of this policy is to ensure that all users operate the software in a lawful, transparent, secure, and fully authorized manner. By using our platform, you agree to the guidelines described in this document and acknowledge your responsibility to protect user privacy, maintain data integrity, and avoid any misuse of remote access technology.

1. Purpose of This Policy

The objective of this policy is to define acceptable and unacceptable usage of GoMyid / GoMyit. Remote access software, by its nature, has the potential to be misused if not managed responsibly. Therefore, it is essential that every user, administrator, and organization adheres to the standards outlined in this policy. The AUP ensures legal compliance, protects individuals from unauthorized activity, and creates a safe operational environment for all remote sessions. This document is a core part of our commitment to transparency, safety, and responsible digital interaction.

2. Scope of the Policy

This Acceptable Use Policy applies to every individual and organization interacting with our software. This includes:

• Administrators who configure and manage the system
• Employees who use company devices with GoMyid installed
• Contractors and outsourced IT personnel
• End users receiving remote assistance
• Any party who remotely connects to a device through the platform

The entire usage lifecycle—from installation to remote access to session termination—is governed by this policy. Compliance is mandatory, regardless of region, jurisdiction, company size, or device ownership.

3. Core Principles of Acceptable Use

GoMyid is built on a foundation of privacy, transparency, and ethical responsibility. To maintain safety and legal compliance, all users must observe the following core principles:

• Transparency: The software must never be used covertly or in hidden mode to access someone’s device.
• User Consent: Remote sessions require clear, informed, and voluntary approval from the device owner/user.
• Security: Secure authentication (passwords, access keys) and strong encryption must be used at all times.
• Lawfulness: All activities must comply with privacy laws, cybersecurity regulations, and corporate policies.
• Integrity: Users must not manipulate, alter, or delete data unless authorized.
• Accountability: All remote access must be traceable and linked to a known authorized operator.
