Terms of Service

Last updated: February 2026

1. Service Description

CheckYourVibe ("we," "us," or "the Service") is a security scanning service for web applications. We perform read-only, non-invasive scans of publicly accessible URLs to identify common security vulnerabilities and misconfigurations.

Our scanner examines HTTP headers, TLS/SSL configuration, DNS records, exposed paths, and client-side code. It does not modify, write to, penetrate, or exploit your application in any way.

The scanner identifies itself via the HTTP User-Agent header as CheckYourVibe-Scanner/0.1 in most requests. Site owners may use this identifier to allow or block our scanner at their discretion.

Scan results include plain-English explanations and copy-paste fix prompts designed for AI coding tools like Cursor and Claude. These results are informational only and do not constitute professional security consulting, a comprehensive security audit, or a guarantee of security.

2. Account Terms

  • You must provide a valid email address to create an account.
  • You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account.
  • You must be at least 18 years old or have the legal capacity to enter into these terms in your jurisdiction.
  • One person or entity may not maintain more than one free account.
  • You must notify us promptly at privacy@checkyourvibe.dev if you become aware of any unauthorized access to your account.
  • We reserve the right to reclaim or reassign account names that are inactive, misleading, or infringing on trademarks.

3. Free Preview Accounts

Free Preview accounts are provided so you can evaluate the Service before subscribing. Free Preview accounts are subject to the following limitations:

  • Limited to a fixed number of scans and monitored sites, as displayed on our pricing page.
  • Free Preview accounts expire after a limited evaluation period. After expiry, scanning functionality is disabled until you subscribe to a paid plan.
  • Scheduled and verification re-scans are not available on the free tier.
  • We may modify or discontinue the free tier at any time without notice.

4. Acceptable Use

You agree to use CheckYourVibe only for lawful purposes. Specifically, you must not:

  • Scan URLs that you do not own or do not have explicit, documented authorization to scan.
  • Use the Service to scan targets for malicious, competitive intelligence, or harassment purposes.
  • Attempt to circumvent scan limits, rate limits, account restrictions, or other usage controls.
  • Create multiple free accounts to circumvent plan limitations.
  • Reverse-engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract the source code of the scanner engine.
  • Resell, redistribute, or commercially exploit scan results as part of a competing service.
  • Interfere with or disrupt the Service or its infrastructure, including through excessive automated access beyond normal usage.
  • Use the Service in any manner that could damage, disable, overburden, or impair our servers or networks.

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms, at our sole discretion and without prior notice. In cases of severe or repeated violations, we may permanently ban the associated email address and IP address from the Service.

5. Subscription Plans & Billing

CheckYourVibe offers multiple subscription tiers, including free and paid plans. Current plan details, features, and pricing are listed on our pricing page.

  • Billing cycle: Paid subscriptions are billed monthly through Stripe, our third-party payment processor.
  • Free trials: Certain plans may include a free trial period. If you do not cancel before the trial ends, your subscription will automatically convert to a paid plan at the listed price.
  • Cancellation: You may cancel your subscription at any time through the Stripe billing portal or by contacting us. Your access continues until the end of the current billing period. No partial-month refunds are issued for cancellations.
  • Refunds: Refund requests are evaluated on a case-by-case basis. If you believe you were charged in error or during a trial period, contact us at privacy@checkyourvibe.dev.
  • Price changes: We may change subscription pricing with at least 30 days' notice. Existing subscribers retain their current price until the end of their billing period following the change. Continued use after a price change takes effect constitutes acceptance of the new price.
  • Payment processing: All payment processing is handled securely by Stripe. We do not store, process, or have access to your full credit card number. Stripe's handling of your payment data is subject to Stripe's Privacy Policy.
  • Failed payments: If a payment fails, we may retry the charge as permitted by Stripe. If payment cannot be collected after reasonable attempts, your account may be downgraded or suspended.

6. Intellectual Property

Our property: The Service, including its scanner engine, analysis logic, user interface, documentation, and branding, is owned by CheckYourVibe and protected by applicable intellectual property laws. These Terms do not grant you any right, title, or interest in the Service beyond the limited right to use it in accordance with these Terms.

Your data: You retain ownership of the URLs you submit and any data associated with your sites. By using the Service, you grant us a limited license to access your publicly available URLs solely for the purpose of performing the scans you request.

Scan results: Scan results generated by the Service are provided for your use. You may use scan results internally, share them with your development team, or include them in your own reports. You may not resell raw scan output as a competing service.

7. Limitation of Liability & Disclaimers

CheckYourVibe is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, either express or implied, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.

  • No guarantee of finding all vulnerabilities. Our scanner checks for common security issues but is not a comprehensive security audit, penetration test, or substitute for professional security review. A passing scan does not mean your application is fully secure.
  • No guarantee of accuracy. While we strive for accurate results, scan findings may include false positives or miss certain vulnerabilities. You should independently verify findings before taking action.
  • You are responsible for fixing issues. We provide findings and remediation suggestions, but implementing fixes is your responsibility. We are not liable for any damages resulting from vulnerabilities, whether detected or undetected by the Service.
  • No uptime guarantee. We strive to maintain high availability but do not guarantee uninterrupted access. The Service may be temporarily unavailable due to maintenance, updates, or circumstances beyond our control.
  • Remediation prompts are suggestions only. AI-generated fix prompts are provided as a starting point. They may not be appropriate for your specific technology stack, configuration, or security requirements. Always review generated code before applying it to production systems.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, our total liability to you for any claims arising from the use of the Service is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months preceding the claim. For free accounts, our maximum liability is zero dollars ($0).

In no event shall we be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including but not limited to loss of profits, data, business opportunities, or goodwill, regardless of whether we were advised of the possibility of such damages.

8. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless CheckYourVibe, its officers, employees, and affiliates from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or related to:

  • Your use of the Service, including any scans you initiate.
  • Your violation of these Terms or any applicable law.
  • Scanning of URLs that you were not authorized to scan.
  • Any dispute between you and a third party related to scan results or remediation actions you take based on our findings.

9. Termination

  • You may delete your account at any time by contacting us at privacy@checkyourvibe.dev.
  • We may suspend or terminate your account at any time if you violate these Terms, if required by law, or if we discontinue the Service.
  • Upon termination, your right to use the Service ceases immediately. Your data will be deleted in accordance with our Privacy Policy.
  • If you have an active paid subscription at the time of termination by us (not for Terms violations), you will receive a prorated refund for the unused portion of your billing period.
  • Termination does not relieve you of obligations to pay any fees owed prior to termination.
  • The following sections survive termination: Intellectual Property, Limitation of Liability & Disclaimers, Indemnification, Dispute Resolution, and General Provisions.

10. Dispute Resolution

We want to address your concerns without a formal legal case. Before filing a claim, you agree to try to resolve the dispute informally by contacting us at privacy@checkyourvibe.dev. We will attempt to resolve the dispute informally within 30 days.

If a dispute is not resolved informally, you and CheckYourVibe agree to resolve any claims relating to these Terms or the Service through final and binding arbitration, except that either party may bring suit in court to enjoin infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights. Arbitration shall be conducted under the rules of the American Arbitration Association (AAA) on an individual basis — class actions and class arbitrations are not permitted.

Nothing in this section prevents either party from seeking injunctive or other equitable relief from a court for matters related to data security, intellectual property, or unauthorized access.

11. Changes to Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. When we make material changes, we will notify you by email (to the address associated with your account) or by posting a prominent notice on the Service at least 14 days before the changes take effect.

Non-material changes (such as clarifications or formatting) may take effect immediately. Continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms. If you do not agree to the revised Terms, you must stop using the Service and may request account deletion.

12. General Provisions

  • Entire agreement: These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and CheckYourVibe regarding the Service and supersede any prior agreements.
  • Severability: If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect. The unenforceable provision will be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable.
  • Waiver: Our failure to enforce any provision of these Terms shall not be deemed a waiver of that provision or the right to enforce it in the future.
  • Assignment: You may not assign or transfer your account or rights under these Terms without our written consent. We may assign our rights and obligations under these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, with notice to you.
  • Force majeure: We shall not be liable for any failure or delay in performing our obligations where such failure or delay results from causes beyond our reasonable control, including but not limited to natural disasters, government actions, internet or infrastructure outages, or third-party service failures.
  • Notices: We may provide notices to you via email to the address on file with your account or by posting on the Service. Notices to us should be sent to privacy@checkyourvibe.dev.
