LGS

Terms of Service

In force since 5 September 2026

This copy is not complete. The operator's legal identity and contact address have not been configured on this deployment, so they are not shown rather than shown wrong. Everything below describes what the service actually does with your data.

1. What the service does

LGS downloads a web page, examines it across twelve areas, and returns a report of what it found with the evidence for each item and what to do about it. The findings are an informed diagnosis, not a certification: passing an LGS audit is not a guarantee that a site is secure, accessible or compliant, and no tool can promise that.

We do not promise any particular search ranking, traffic or revenue outcome. Anybody who does is selling you something else.

2. What you may point it at

A passive audit reads a page the way a visitor's browser would, and obeys robots.txt and a polite request rate.

Anything more intrusive requires that you prove the domain is yours. Crawling a whole site, opening it in our browser, load testing and injection testing only run against domains you have verified. This is not only a rule here — the software enforces it, and it checks the host you actually land on after redirects, so a redirect cannot carry a scan onto somebody else's site.

You must not use this service to test, probe or overload a system you are not authorised to test. If you do, we will close your account.

3. Your account

4. What it costs

None of this limits rights you have under consumer law that cannot be contracted out of — in Australia, the Australian Consumer Law guarantees.

5. Availability

We aim to keep the service up and we do not offer a service level agreement. Audits are queued and can take longer when a site is slow to answer, which is a property of the site being audited rather than of the queue.

6. Your content

The URLs you submit and the reports produced from them are yours. We use them to run the service and for nothing else, and we do not publish them. See the Privacy Policy.

7. Fair use

Automated resale of audits, sharing one account across an organisation, or using the service in a way that degrades it for others are grounds for us to ask you to stop and, if it continues, to close the account.

8. Liability

To the extent the law allows, our liability for any claim connected with this service is limited to what you paid us in the twelve months before the claim. We are not liable for lost profit or lost data. Nothing here excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded.

9. Ending it

You can close your account whenever you want. We can close it if these terms are broken — in particular the part about what you may point the service at — and we will tell you why.
