Third-party permissions
If your website uses third-party hosting, payment providers, customer systems or connected services, additional permissions may be necessary. We may decline, limit or defer work if authorization or safety constraints cannot be established.
Reporting concerns
If you find a potential issue in the Defendoria site itself, refer to the Security Disclosure Policy before taking any further steps. That page is not an authorization to carry out testing.
Changes and contact
We may update this policy as the service develops. Questions can be sent using the contact form.
