Terms of Service

These Terms govern your use of trusttraffic.net, the TrustTraffic dashboard, and the @trusttraffic/tracker package (together, the “Service”), operated by TrustTraffic (“we,” “us”). By creating an account or installing the tracker, you agree to these Terms. If you don’t agree, don’t use the Service.

1. The Service, and its stage

TrustTraffic detects AI-crawler traffic to websites and reports it in a dashboard, and on paid plans checks whether AI answer engines cite your site. The Service is in public beta: features may change, break, or be removed without the notice you’d expect from a mature product, and access is currently gated behind a shared pre-launch access code. We’ll do our best to give notice of material changes, but beta means beta.

2. Accounts

Sign-in uses your email address with no password and, at this stage, no email verification step. That means anyone who enters your email address can access the account associated with it. Don’t use an email you don’t control, don’t share your access code, and tell us at nathanadevv@gmail.com if you believe your account has been accessed without authorization. You’re responsible for activity that occurs through your account.

3. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

• Circumvent, probe, or overload rate limits or other abuse protections
• Use the robots.txt checker to target, scan, or disrupt sites you don’t have permission to test
• Install the tracker on a site you don’t own or have authorization to instrument
• Share, sell, or resell your access code, account, or tracker tokens
• Reverse-engineer the Service to circumvent metering, gating, or usage limits
• Use the Service for anything unlawful, or that infringes anyone else’s rights

4. Your site data

You own the traffic data your installed tracker sends us. You grant us a license to process, store, and display it back to you as part of the Service. You’re responsible for having the right to install the tracker on any site you connect, and for your own site’s compliance with laws that apply to you — including telling your own users about your use of third-party tools, if your jurisdiction requires that. As explained in our Privacy Policy, the tracker only reports requests identified as AI crawlers; it does not collect personal data about your site’s human visitors unless you explicitly opt in to the aggregate human-count feature, which itself stores no per-visitor data.

5. Fees

The Service is currently free during beta. The pricing shown on our site reflects plans we intend to charge once citation tracking and billing go live. We’ll give you notice before any plan you’re on starts being billed, and you’ll be able to cancel before that happens.

6. Termination

You can delete a site or your account at any time from the dashboard; doing so deletes its associated traffic data as described in our Privacy Policy. We may suspend or terminate access for violation of these Terms, for abuse of the Service, or as needed to operate or wind down the Service, with notice where practical.

7. Disclaimers

The Service is provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including accuracy or completeness of crawler detection, robots.txt interpretation, citation results, uptime, or fitness for a particular purpose. AI-crawler user-agent strings are self-reported by third parties; we can’t guarantee every crawler correctly identifies itself, or that our detection list stays exhaustive.

8. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, TrustTraffic will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of data, revenue, or profits, arising from your use of the Service. Our total liability for any claim relating to the Service will not exceed the amount you paid us in the twelve months before the claim arose (or $50 if you’re on a free plan).

9. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold TrustTraffic harmless from claims arising from your misuse of the Service, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any third party’s rights (including by installing the tracker on a site without authorization).

10. Changes

We may update these Terms as the Service evolves. We’ll update the “Last updated” date above; continued use after changes take effect means you accept the revised Terms.
