Acceptable Use Policy & Telecommunication Guidelines
Virtual-sims operates physical baseband SIM routing for legitimate verification. This policy governs permitted use, ethical boundaries, and enforcement against platform misuse.
Engineered for Privacy, DevQA, and Identity Protection
Virtual-sims exists so security researchers, developers, and privacy-conscious users can obtain temporary verification credentials without exposing personal phone numbers to every signup form, loyalty kiosk, or data reseller.
Permitted & Legitimate Verification Uses
Authorized uses within tier rate parameters and destination-service terms.
2FA & phone auth pipeline testing
OTP latency, carrier fallback, and registration-flow testing during product development.
Shielding against data aggregators
Keeping personal numbers off public signups, reverse-lookup databases, and robocall lists.
Authorized messaging & social onboarding
Creating accounts on digital networks within each service’s terms—no mass automated spam farms.
Segmented client workspace setup
Legitimate brand or agency workspaces on behalf of authorized clients, without fraud.
Strictly Prohibited & Malicious Activities
Violations may result in immediate permanent termination, balance forfeiture, and reporting where required by law.
Financial fraud, banking scams & SIM swaps
Bypassing bank/exchange 2FA, unauthorized payments, card theft validation, or SIM-hijacking.
Automated spam & credential phishing
Bulk spam accounts, scam botnets, mass messaging blasts, or brand impersonation.
Sanctions evasion & CSAM
Any use violating sanctions/export controls, terror financing prohibitions, or facilitating CSAM.
Baseband flooding & DoS
Scripted loops that overwhelm gateways, lock modem channels, or attempt carrier disruption.
Telecommunication Integrity & Anti-VoIP Standards
Unlike mass-market VoIP resellers that are frequently blocked by security filters, Virtual-sims routes through genuine physical SIM arrays connected to cellular infrastructure. Abusive high-frequency queries degrade quality for everyone and risk carrier reputation flags—so fair-use limits apply.
Automated Abuse Detection & Quotas
Concurrency throttle
Excessive concurrent reservations or burst request rates trigger cool-downs and HTTP 429 responses.
Fair rate envelopesPattern heuristics
Repetitive cycles targeting high-risk financial endpoints may be slowed, challenged, or blocked.
Risk scoringReputation gates
Traffic from known abusive networks may face additional friction or denial.
ASN / abuse feedsTiered Enforcement & Account Forfeiture
Soft rate dampener
Temporary rate dampening after connection spikes; restores when cadence normalizes.
API suspension
Time-boxed API freeze for scraping or unauthorized concurrency; review may be required.
Wallet / escrow lock
Credits frozen pending audit for fraud signals or policy violations.
Permanent purge
Ban with forfeiture of unspent balances and blacklisting of related credentials.
Law Enforcement Cooperation
Virtual-sims respects civil privacy while complying with valid legal process. We typically:
- Disclose information only in response to a binding court order, warrant, or valid MLAT / equivalent process from competent authority.
- Cannot produce ephemeral content that has already been purged under our retention schedule (see Privacy Policy).
- Maintain zero tolerance for child exploitation material and cooperate with mandated reporting channels.
Report Abuse or Security Vulnerabilities
Carriers, researchers, and regulators who detect malicious traffic involving our gateway nodes should report promptly:
