Terms of Service

Last updated: [date] · This is a template — have a lawyer review it before you rely on it.

Acceptance

By using Scanline ("the site"), you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, don't use the site.

What the site is for

Scanline is an informational, self-diagnostic tool. It shows you a snapshot of what your own browser and connection expose to websites. It is intended for personal and educational use.

Acceptable use

• Use the site to check your own device and connection, not to monitor, profile, or deanonymize someone else without their knowledge and consent.
• Don't rely on the VPN/proxy indicator as a security control, an access-control decision, or a legal determination about anyone's identity or location — it's a heuristic and can be wrong.
• Don't attempt to overload, scrape, or interfere with the site or the third-party services it calls.

Accuracy

Location data is approximate and derived from IP address databases maintained by third parties; it can be off by a wide margin, especially on mobile networks, VPNs, or in rural areas. The VPN/proxy signal is a best-effort heuristic. Device and browser readings reflect what your browser chooses to report, which varies by browser and settings. None of it is guaranteed to be accurate, complete, or current.

No warranty

The site is provided "as is," without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose or non-infringement.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, [your name / company] is not liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of, or inability to use, the site.

Third-party services

The site calls third-party IP-lookup and mapping services to display your results. Their availability and accuracy are outside our control, and their own terms apply to the requests your browser sends them.

Changes

We may update these terms from time to time; continued use after a change means you accept the update.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of [your jurisdiction], without regard to conflict-of-law principles.
