Remote Desktop Terms

Last updated September 11, 2026

Chirp Remote Desktop is designed for computers you own or are authorized to control. By enabling Remote Access, you allow authenticated sessions from your Chirp account to view and control that registered computer.

Your responsibility

• Only register computers you own or have permission to access.
• Keep your Chirp account, two-factor authentication, and recovery codes secure.
• Turn Remote Access off when you do not want the computer to accept connections.

Visible access

The ChirpRD Windows app stays visible in the system tray and indicates when a remote viewer is active. The product does not include a stealth mode or a way to bypass Windows security prompts.

Device credentials

After registration, the Windows app uses a device-specific credential instead of storing your Chirp password. Removing a computer from ChirpRD invalidates that credential.

Remote session transport

ChirpRD uses authenticated, persistent realtime connections to relay desktop frames and control events through the Chirp service. The viewer only connects to computers registered to the same Chirp account, and the Windows app keeps an active-session indicator visible while a remote viewer is connected.
