Terms of Service

Effective 2026-09-02. Plain terms for a product whose whole argument is that it does not overclaim.

This agreement is between you and Aygün Gönlüşen, trading as DSA Bilişim (sole proprietor, Turkish tax ID VKN 4080408038, Sarıgazi V.D. tax office), Cumhuriyet Mah. Yonca Sk. No: 11-13 Inner Door No: 2, Cekmekoy/Istanbul, Turkiye (“we”). Questions about these terms go to [email protected].

1. What the service does

ProvenVisible crawls a website you control, runs deterministic checks against it, scores it on three scoreboards (classic search, answer engines, LLM citation readiness), writes suggested fixes, and — where you have connected a publishing route — applies fixes you approve and then verifies them against the live page.

2. Your site, your permission

You may only register a site you own or are authorised to manage. Registering a competitor’s domain to run an audit against it is not permitted; the public free tools exist for looking at any public page in a read-only way.

When an audit runs, the crawler identifies itself as ProvenVisibleBot, honours the robots.txt of the site, waits between requests, and fetches only pages that are already publicly reachable. It does not sign in, and it does not read anything an ordinary visitor could not read.

3. Nothing is published without your approval

This is a commitment, not a setting. Generated fixes stay as drafts until you approve that specific change. Connector credentials are scoped to what you granted, every job is signed and single-use, and the payload is checked against an allow-list before it reaches your site. If you disconnect, we stop.

4. What the scores mean — and do not mean

Scores are produced by a deterministic rule engine: the same crawl always produces the same score. AI analysis adds context to findings but never changes a score. A score is a measurement of the signals we could observe, not a prediction of traffic, rankings or revenue.

We do not promise rankings, traffic, mentions or citations. Search engines and answer engines are third parties whose behaviour we do not control and cannot guarantee. What we do promise is that every recommendation states how you would know it was wrong, and that a finding is only marked fixed after the live page has been checked.

5. Measurement is honest about its limits

Checks that could not be evaluated are reported as “not measured”, never as passed. Where the product samples (for example, mobile rendering measures a sample of pages), the report says so. Verdicts about whether a fix worked are withheld until enough data exists on both sides of the change, and negative results are shown, not hidden.

6. Acceptable use

• Do not use the service to attack, overload or probe systems you do not control.
• Do not use the free tools as a general-purpose scraper.
• Do not resell raw output as if it were your own measurement platform without agreement from us.
• Do not attempt to bypass rate limits or authentication.

7. Accounts, plans and payment

Payments are processed by Paddle.com Market Ltd as the merchant of record. Paddle is the seller for the payment itself: it charges your card, collects any sales tax or VAT, issues the invoice, and handles refunds and chargebacks. Its name appears on your statement alongside ours, and its buyer terms apply to the transaction in addition to this agreement.

Prices are published, but purchases are not open yet: our checkout domain is still awaiting approval by Paddle.com Market Ltd. Nothing is being charged today. The price and billing cycle will be stated at checkout when purchases open; the terms for cancelling and for getting your money back are already published in the refund and cancellation policy, which forms part of these terms.

8. Third-party services

Parts of the product depend on services we do not operate — answer engines, Google Search Console and Analytics, and the model providers listed in the privacy policy. If one of them changes, rate-limits us or goes down, the affected feature may be unavailable or incomplete. We will show that state honestly rather than filling the gap with estimates.

9. Who owns what

You keep all rights to your website content and to the data you connect. The reports, findings, generated fix text and exports produced for your site belong to you — the site owner. You may publish them, hand them to a client, or keep them after closing your account; we do not need to be credited and we do not claim a licence over them.

What remains ours is the service itself: the software, the check registry and scoring methodology, the report templates, and the ProvenVisible name and marks. Owning your report does not license you to rebuild the platform from it — see the acceptable-use rules above.

We process your data to provide the service, as described in the privacy policy. You can delete a site or your whole account at any time, and deletion removes the stored crawls, audits and metrics associated with it.

10. If someone else brings a claim

Registering a site is your statement that you are entitled to analyse it, and it is the one thing we cannot verify for you — connecting Google Search Console proves ownership, but a site can also be added without it. If a third party brings a claim against us because you registered or analysed a site you were not authorised to register, you agree to cover the reasonable cost of defending that claim.

This is deliberately narrow, because the exposure is narrow. Even when a site is registered by the wrong person, the crawler reads only pages that are already public — no login, no private area, no confidential material. The obligation does not apply to claims caused by our own breach of these terms or by a defect in the service.

11. Availability and liability

The service is provided as-is while it is free. We do not warrant uninterrupted availability, and to the extent the law allows we are not liable for indirect or consequential loss, lost profit, or loss arising from search or answer-engine behaviour. Nothing here limits liability that cannot lawfully be limited.

12. Events outside our control

Neither side is responsible for a failure to perform while it is genuinely prevented by something outside its control: network or data-centre outages, failure of a provider named in the privacy policy, denial-of-service attacks, loss of power or connectivity, natural disaster, war, or a government act that makes performance unlawful. We will say what has happened rather than hide behind this clause, and if such an event continues for more than 30 days either side may end the agreement. It does not excuse amounts already due.

13. Ending the agreement

You may stop using the service and delete your account at any time. We may suspend an account that breaches the acceptable-use rules above, and will say why when we do.

14. Transfer of this agreement

You may not transfer your account or this agreement to someone else without our agreement. We may transfer it to a successor if the business is reorganised, merged or sold; your data moves with it under the same privacy commitments, account holders are told before the transfer takes effect, and anyone who would rather not continue can delete their account first.

15. Governing law

The service is operated and hosted from Turkey, and these terms are governed by Turkish law. If you are a consumer in another country, mandatory protections of your local law still apply to you.

16. Changes

If these terms change materially, the effective date at the top changes and account holders are told by email before the new version applies.
