Terms of Service

By accessing downdetectordowndetectordowndetector.com ("the site"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you disagree with any part of these terms, you may not access the site.

downdetectordowndetectordowndetector.com is owned and operated by Hasher Technologies LLC. These terms apply to the service provided through this monitoring project.

This site provides an independent status-monitoring service that checks whether downdetector.com is accessible.

The service includes:

• A web interface displaying the current status of downdetector.com along with recent history and incident timelines
• A public API (including the documented /api/v1/* endpoints) for programmatic access
• Account signup for optional incident email alerts, API keys, authenticated settings access, and optional multi-factor authentication (MFA) for sign-in
• A contact form for inquiries

The public monitor and documented API access are provided free of charge. Hasher Technologies LLC does not operate checkout, subscriptions, or payment processing on this site.

The status information provided is based on automated HTTP checks and may not accurately reflect the true availability of downdetector.com. Factors that can affect accuracy include:

• Bot detection and Cloudflare protection on downdetector.com
• Network conditions between our server and the target
• Partial outages that affect some users but not others
• The inherent limitations of monitoring from a single location

Do not rely on this service for critical decision-making.

You agree not to:

• Attempt to disrupt or overload the service
• Use automated tools to excessively query the API
• Attempt to gain unauthorized access to the service
• Share, sell, or publish API keys issued to your account
• Use the contact form for spam or harassment
• Misrepresent this site as being affiliated with DownDetector or Ookla

API keys are for your own account use. You are responsible for keeping them private and revoking keys you no longer need.

We may suspend or terminate access to accounts, API usage, or contact-form access if you violate these Terms, abuse the service, create security or legal risk, or interfere with the site or other users.

You may stop using the site at any time. For account or support questions, use the contact options described on the site.
