TERMS
& ACCEPTABLE USE.
Operational rules for using Bit Happens, especially tools that perform external checks.
Test authorized assets only
Port Check, the Attack Surface active check and any other active test may only be used against systems, domains or IP addresses you administer or have explicit permission to test.
Unacceptable use
Do not use Bit Happens for vulnerability exploitation, credential attempts, brute force, evasion, availability disruption, harassment, unauthorized mass scanning, bypassing Turnstile/rate limits or unlawful activity. Do not attempt to target private, loopback, link-local or cloud-metadata addresses.
Operational safeguards
The portal may enforce Turnstile, source/target limits, public-address validation, DNS TXT proof, allowlists and other restrictions. A UI confirmation does not obligate the backend to run a test.
Technical interpretation
Results represent a point-in-time observation from the stated perspective. An open port is not the same as a vulnerability; no response does not prove a global outage; Certificate Transparency data may be historical. Confirm important findings with a second source before acting.
No continuity guarantee
The tools are provided for technical assistance and may be affected by outages, third-party limitations or implementation changes. Usage may be blocked or limited when it creates operational risk or abuse.
Data and Analytics
See Privacy & Data for what runs locally, what is sent during external queries, and how Analytics consent works.
Use at your own discretion
The tools are provided free of charge and as is, without any warranty of accuracy, completeness or fitness for a particular purpose. You are responsible for decisions made based on the results and for being authorized to run any active check.

Bit Happens is operated by Bit Happens Ltda (CNPJ 33.928.975/0001-33), Curitiba, Brazil. Write to info@bithappens.com.br. To report abuse against an asset you own, include the target, date, time and, if possible, the logs you observed. Vulnerability reports follow security.txt.
