Security and responsible capture
Stravue opens public web pages and takes a picture of them, because a customer asked it to. This page explains how it behaves, what it will never do, and how to reach a person.
If our traffic is a problem for your site
Email support@stravue.com and we will stop capturing your site. No form, no argument, no justification needed. We would rather lose the page than be a nuisance.
Security reports go to security@stravue.com. Machine-readable contacts are at /.well-known/security.txt.
How Stravue visits a page
- A real browser loads the page once, the same way a person would, and takes a full-length screenshot on desktop and phone.
- Requests to the same site are spaced out. Stravue paces itself so a capture arrives as a visit, never as a burst.
- Only public pages. Stravue does not log in, does not accept invitations, and does not pass paywalls.
- Captures happen because a customer asked for that specific address. Stravue does not wander a site looking for more.
What Stravue will never do
- Scan networks or IP addresses. Stravue requests web pages over HTTPS and nothing else.
- Solve or defeat a verification challenge. If a site says no, the customer is told it said no, and gets an honest empty result rather than an invented one.
- Collect personal data, or capture anything behind a login.
- Use a fake source address, or hide who to complain to.
Reporting a vulnerability
Stravue is run by one person, so there is no bounty programme and no triage team. What there is: a reply. Send the detail to security@stravue.com and give it a reasonable window before publishing. Anything affecting customer data gets worked on the day it arrives.
