Terms of Service
These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the PatchPings mobile application (the "App") and the PatchPings website at patchpings.com (the "Website"), together referred to as the "Service". The Service is operated by CodenVibe IT LLC, a company registered in the State of Wyoming, United States ("we", "us", or "our"). By downloading, accessing, or using PatchPings, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the Service. Refund terms are set out in the Refund Policy section below.
01Eligibility
You must be at least 13 years of age (or the minimum age required in your jurisdiction) to use PatchPings. By using the Service, you represent and warrant that you meet this requirement.
If you use PatchPings on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have the authority to bind that organization to these Terms, and "you" refers to that organization.
02Description of the Service
PatchPings is a tool that allows you to:
- Scan websites for security configurations, including HTTP security headers, SSL/TLS certificates, DNS records, and HTTP redirect behavior
- View scan results, including grades and detected issues
- Receive AI-generated explanations and guidance on how to address detected issues
- Save and view a history of your scans
- Access additional features that may be offered now or in the future, including monitoring and alerts
PatchPings provides informational results only
We do not guarantee that scan results are complete, accurate, or current at all times. Website configurations change frequently, and results reflect the state of a target at the moment of the scan.
PatchPings is an informational tool and is not a substitute for a professional security audit, penetration test, or legal compliance assessment.
03Acceptable use
You agree to use PatchPings only for lawful purposes and in accordance with these Terms. Your use of the scanning features is also governed by our Acceptable Use Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference.
In particular, you agree that:
- You will only scan websites and domains that you own, operate, or have explicit authorization to scan
- You will not use PatchPings to scan, probe, attack, or attempt to exploit any system without authorization
- You will not use the Service in any way that violates any applicable local, national, or international law or regulation
You are solely responsible for ensuring you have the right to scan any domain you submit
We are not responsible for any unauthorized use of the Service by you.
04Prohibited conduct
You must not:
- Use PatchPings to scan or test any website or system you do not own or have permission to test
- Attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Service, our systems, or other users' accounts
- Reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or attempt to extract the source code of the App
- Use automated scripts, bots, or other means to access the Service beyond normal app usage or to circumvent usage limits
- Interfere with or disrupt the integrity or performance of the Service
- Resell, redistribute, sublicense, or commercially exploit the Service or its results without our prior written permission
- Use the Service to transmit malware, viruses, or any harmful code
- Impersonate any person or entity or misrepresent your affiliation with any person or entity
- Use the Service in any manner that could damage, disable, or impair the Service
We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your access if you violate any of these rules.
05Accounts
Some features require you to create an account by signing in with Google.
You are responsible for:
- Maintaining the security and confidentiality of your account credentials
- All activity that occurs under your account
- Notifying us immediately at [email protected] if you suspect unauthorized use of your account
We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms, remain inactive for an extended period, or are used in a manner that may harm the Service or other users.
06Guest access
You may use certain features of PatchPings as a guest without creating an account, subject to a limit on the number of scans. Guest data, including scan count, is stored locally on your device and is not backed up to our servers. We are not responsible for any loss of guest data.
07Subscriptions, billing, and payment
PatchPings offers free features and may offer paid subscription plans ("Subscriptions").
Free features
Core scanning features are available free of charge to signed-in users. We reserve the right to modify what is included in the free tier at any time.
Paid Subscriptions
Certain features may be offered through paid Subscriptions billed on a recurring basis (for example, monthly). By purchasing a Subscription, you agree to pay the applicable fees.
Billing
Subscriptions are billed in advance on a recurring basis through our payment processor. Your Subscription will automatically renew at the end of each billing period unless you cancel before the renewal date.
No refunds
All Subscription payments are final and non-refundable. By purchasing a Subscription, you acknowledge and agree that you will not receive a refund for any amounts already paid, including for partial billing periods, unused time, or if you cancel before the end of a billing period. You accept this no-refund policy at the time of purchase. For full details, see our Refund Policy.
Cancellation
You may cancel your Subscription at any time. Cancellation stops future renewals. You will continue to have access to paid features until the end of your current billing period, after which your access to paid features will end. No refund is provided for the remaining period.
Price changes
We may change Subscription prices from time to time. We will provide reasonable notice of any price change. Price changes take effect at the start of the next billing period after the notice.
08Refund Policy
This Refund Policy explains the terms regarding payments and refunds for PatchPings subscriptions. PatchPings is operated by CodenVibe IT LLC ("we", "us", or "our"). This policy is part of and should be read together with our Terms of Service.
By purchasing a subscription to PatchPings, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agreed to this Refund Policy.
All sales are final
All payments for PatchPings subscriptions are final and non-refundable.
When you purchase or renew a subscription, you are charged in advance for the upcoming billing period. We do not provide refunds or credits for:
- Any partial billing period
- Unused time on your subscription
- Cancellation before the end of a billing period
- Subscriptions you forgot to cancel before renewal
- Periods during which you did not use the Service
- Dissatisfaction with features, results, or the Service
You accept this policy before you pay
Before you complete any subscription purchase or upgrade, you are presented with and must accept our Terms of Service, which include this no-refund policy. By proceeding with payment, you confirm that you understand and agree that your payment is non-refundable.
We make this policy clear at the point of purchase specifically so that you can make an informed decision before subscribing.
Try before you subscribe
We encourage you to fully explore PatchPings before purchasing a subscription. Our free tier gives signed-in users access to core scanning features at no cost, so you can evaluate whether the Service meets your needs before paying for any premium features.
Because a free tier is available, we do not offer trial-based refunds on paid subscriptions.
Cancellation
You may cancel your subscription at any time. To cancel:
- Manage your subscription through the platform where you purchased it (for example, your account settings or the relevant app store), or
- Contact us at [email protected]
When you cancel
- Your subscription will not renew for the next billing period
- You will retain access to paid features until the end of your current billing period
- After your current period ends, your access to paid features will stop
- No refund is issued for the remaining time in the current period
Exceptions
While all sales are final, we will comply with any refund rights that are required and cannot be waived under the laws of your jurisdiction. Nothing in this policy is intended to limit any rights you may have under applicable consumer protection law that cannot be overridden by agreement.
If you are located in a jurisdiction that grants a mandatory, non-waivable statutory right to a refund, that right will be honored to the extent legally required.
Payments through app stores
If you purchased a subscription through the Apple App Store or Google Play Store, that store's refund policies and procedures may also apply, and any refund request may need to be directed to the store rather than to us. Each app store handles billing and refunds according to its own terms, which are outside our control.
Failed or disputed payments
If a payment fails, we may suspend your access to paid features until payment is successfully processed. If you initiate a chargeback or payment dispute, we reserve the right to suspend or terminate your account.
Changes to this Refund Policy
We may update this Refund Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Changes apply to purchases made after the updated policy takes effect. Your continued use of paid features after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
