2. Information we collect

Information you provide

When you contact us, request an audit, or sign up for a service, we may collect: your name, email address, company name, website URL(s), billing details, and any other information you choose to share with us.

Information about your website

To deliver our services, we crawl, scan, and analyze the public-facing pages of websites you submit. We may store the resulting data, including page content, structure, and accessibility findings, for the duration of your engagement.

Automatic information

We automatically collect technical information when you visit our website: IP address, browser type, device type, referring URLs, pages viewed, time spent, and similar usage data. We collect this information through cookies, server logs, and similar technologies.

3. How we use information

We use the information we collect for any lawful business purpose, including to:

• Provide, operate, maintain, and improve our website and services;
• Respond to inquiries, deliver audits, ship fixes, and provide reports;
• Send service-related communications, invoices, and updates;
• Send marketing communications (where permitted by law and subject to your right to opt out);

4. Sharing and disclosure

We do not sell your personal information. We may share information in the following circumstances:

Service providers and subprocessors. We share information with third-party vendors who help us operate our business — including hosting, analytics, payment processing, customer support, and email delivery. These providers are bound by appropriate confidentiality and data-protection terms. We may add or change subprocessors at any time.

Business transfers. If we are involved in a merger, acquisition, financing, reorganization, sale of assets, or bankruptcy, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction.

Legal requirements. We may disclose information if required by law, subpoena, court order, or other legal process, or if we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, your safety, or the safety of others.

With your consent. We may share information with your consent or at your direction.

Aggregated or de-identified data. We may share aggregated, anonymized, or de-identified data that cannot reasonably be used to identify you.

5. Cookies and tracking

We use cookies and similar technologies to operate our website, remember your preferences, analyze usage, and (where applicable) deliver advertising. You can control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect website functionality.

6. Data retention

We retain information for as long as we determine necessary to provide our services, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, enforce our agreements, and for other legitimate business purposes. Retention periods may vary based on the type of information and the context in which we collected it.

7. Security

We implement commercially reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect information against unauthorized access, use, alteration, or disclosure. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee the security of any information. You provide information at your own risk. In the event of a security incident, we will comply with applicable notification laws.

8. International transfers

We may process and store information in any country in which we, our affiliates, or our service providers operate. Data-protection laws may differ from those in your country of residence. By using our services, you consent to the transfer of your information to countries outside your country of residence.

To exercise these rights, contact us using the information below. We will respond to your request as required by applicable law. We may verify your identity before fulfilling a request and may decline requests that are unreasonable, repetitive, or as otherwise permitted by law.

If you are a resident of the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or California, you may have additional rights under applicable laws (e.g., GDPR, UK GDPR, CCPA/CPRA). We will honor those rights as required by law.

10. Children's privacy

Our website and services are not directed to children under 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16. If we learn we have collected such information, we will delete it.
