Terms of Use
By accessing or using the Site Speed Audit service (the "Service"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use ("Terms").

These Terms of Use govern the Site Speed Audit service, which is owned and operated by Jacob Ellis ("we", "us", or "our").
The Service
The Service is a tool designed to analyze a user-submitted URL for the purposes of measuring site speed and identifying technical issues. The results are based on automated analysis and should not be taken as professional or legal advice.
User-Submitted Content (URLs)
The Service allows you to submit URLs for analysis. By submitting a URL, you represent and warrant that:
- You are the owner or authorized agent of the URL/website being submitted, or you have explicit permission from the owner to perform the requested analysis.
- You will not submit any URL that is, or links to, content that is illegal, fraudulent, defamatory, harassing, or harmful.
- You will not use the Service to overburden, stress-test, or maliciously attack any website, including your own or a third party's.
- The Service takes no responsibility for the content, privacy practices, or actions of any third-party website linked to by a submitted URL.
The Service analyzes third-party websites based on user-submitted URLs. We are not responsible for any impact, damage, disruption, or consequences resulting from the analysis of any website. You are solely responsible for ensuring you have permission to analyze any submitted URL.
Acceptable Use Policy (AUP)
