Vulnerability Disclosure Policy
We take the security of our systems seriously, and we value the security community. The disclosure of vulnerabilities helps us ensure the security and privacy of our users.
Guidelines
We require that all researchers:
- Make every effort to avoid privacy violations, degradation of user experience, disruption to production systems, and destruction of data during security testing.
- Perform research only within the scope set out below.
- Use the identified communication channels to report vulnerability information to us.
- Keep information about any vulnerabilities you’ve discovered confidential between yourself and ApprovalMax until we’ve had 90 days to resolve the issue.
If you follow these guidelines when reporting an issue to us, we commit to:
- Recognise your contribution to our Security Research Hall of Fame, if you are the first to report the issue and we make a code or configuration change based on the issue. Note that we don’t offer any monetary compensation at this time.
- Work with you to understand and resolve the issue quickly (including an initial confirmation of your report within 72 hours of submission).
- Not pursue or support any legal action related to your research.
