Vulnerability Disclosure Policy

Effective: Jan 3rd, 2019

At BoostUp, trust is our #1 value and we take the protection of our customers’ data very seriously.


The BoostUp security team acknowledges the valuable role that independent security researchers play in Internet security. As a result, we encourage responsible reporting of any vulnerabilities that may be found in our site or applications. BoostUp is committed to working with security researchers to verify and address any potential vulnerabilities that are reported to us.


Please review these terms before you test and/or report a vulnerability. BoostUp pledges not to initiate legal action against researchers for penetrating or attempting to penetrate our systems as long as they adhere to this policy.


Reporting a potential security vulnerability:

  1. Privately share details of the suspected vulnerability with BoostUp by sending an email to security@boostup.ai

  6. Conduct vulnerability testing of participating services using anything other than test accounts (e.g. Developer or Trial Edition instances)
  7. Violating any laws or breaching any agreements in order to discover vulnerabilities

The BoostUp security team commitment:
