Fair Use Policy

FileUploadForm is built and run by a small team. This policy keeps it reliable and safe for form owners and for the people who send them files. It's part of our Terms of Service.

Use it for collecting files you're entitled to receive

Good uses include client documents, photos from events, job applications, assignments, artwork for print, and similar everyday file collection.

Not allowed

• Phishing and impersonation: forms that pretend to be another person, company, bank or government, or that ask for passwords, card numbers or other credentials.
• Malware: collecting or distributing viruses or other harmful files on purpose.
• Illegal content: anything that exploits children, promotes violence or terrorism, or breaks the law where you or your senders are.
• Infringement: collecting content you know infringes someone else's copyright or other rights.
• Spam and scams: forms used for unsolicited bulk messaging, fake giveaways or fraud.
• Collecting sensitive data without care: health, identity or financial documents are fine for legitimate purposes, but you must tell senders how you'll handle them and follow the law that applies to you.
• Abusing the service: automated or scripted submissions, attempts to bypass plan limits (for example with many free accounts), probing for security weaknesses, or anything that degrades the service for others.

Limits

Files go straight to your own Google Drive, so we don't cap storage; your Google storage and Google Drive's limits apply. To keep things fast and stop abuse:

• Each submission can include up to 40 files.
• Free upload pages accept files for 7 days after they're created. You can create up to 10 new pages a day on Free (50 on Pro).
• Each form accepts up to 500 submissions a day on the Free plan and 5,000 on Pro.
• We rate-limit unusually high volumes of submissions, password attempts, sign-ins or requests from a single source. Normal use never comes close.
• If a form's traffic is far outside normal use (for example, it's being used as a public file dump), we'll contact you before taking action where we can.

How we enforce this

We review reports and automated signals. Depending on how serious a problem is, we may warn you, disable a form, or suspend an account. Phishing, malware and illegal content are disabled immediately. Disabling a form stops new uploads; files already in your Drive stay there and remain yours.

If you think we got it wrong, email hello@fileuploadform.com and we'll take another look.

Report abuse

Every hosted upload page has a “Report abuse” link at the bottom. You can also email hello@fileuploadform.com with the form link. We don't tell the form owner who reported it.
