Acceptable Use Policy

Allowed use

• Run a Site Audit, Conversion Audit, or Content Quality Audit on any public website — you don't need to own it or have the owner's permission.
• Review public pages, robots.txt, and sitemaps the crawler is allowed to fetch.
• Use reports to fix technical, SEO, performance, accessibility, and security issues on those sites.

Sites you haven't verified ownership of — including any third-party site — audit at a lower page cap and a higher AI credit cost than sites you've verified with a DNS TXT record. See pricing for plan limits.

Not allowed

• Trying to bypass logins, paywalls, CAPTCHAs, bot challenges, rate limits, or robots.txt.
• Using WPAQ to find exploits, harvest personal data, send spam, or overload a host.
• Automated bulk auditing that is designed to evade our queue or rate limits.
• Reselling raw Site Audit output as if it were a human review or legal certification.

How the crawler behaves

WPAQBot identifies itself, respects robots.txt, stays on the submitted host, and uses conservative concurrency. Details are on the WPAQBot page. We may refuse, throttle, or cancel Site Audits that look abusive.

Enforcement

We may block URLs, IP addresses, or accounts that violate this policy. Report abuse to [email protected].
