1. Parties and Definitions

"BoltAudit", "we", "us", "our" means HalalBrains, the operator of the BoltAudit platform.

"You", "user" means the individual or legal entity that registers for and uses BoltAudit.

"Service" means the BoltAudit platform in its entirety, including the marketing website at boltaudit.com, the application at app.boltaudit.com, the Cloudflare Workers API, and the BoltAudit WordPress plugin.

"Audit" means a single AI-powered analysis session of a connected WordPress site, producing a structured report with scores and recommendations.

"Paddle" means Paddle.com Market Ltd, our payment infrastructure provider and Merchant of Record.

2. The Service

BoltAudit provides an AI-powered audit platform for WordPress websites. The core service includes:

  • A free WordPress plugin that performs local, on-device audits without requiring an account.
  • A paid cloud service that uses Claude AI to analyse WordPress site data and generate detailed performance, security, SEO, database, and other audit reports.
  • A web dashboard at app.boltaudit.com for managing sites, viewing reports, and managing your account.

The free local audit features of the WordPress plugin are provided without charge and without any guarantee of continued availability or feature parity with paid features.

3. Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old and capable of entering into a binding contract to use BoltAudit. If you are using BoltAudit on behalf of a company or organisation, you represent that you have authority to bind that entity to these Terms.

BoltAudit is not available to users in jurisdictions where offering or using the service would be prohibited by law.

4. Accounts

You must create an account to access paid features. You agree to:

  • Provide accurate and complete information during registration.
  • Keep your password confidential and not share it with others.
  • Notify us immediately at hello@boltaudit.com if you suspect unauthorised access to your account.
  • Take responsibility for all activity that occurs under your account.

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that we reasonably believe are being used in violation of these Terms.

5. BYOK Subscription Plans

BoltAudit operates on BYOK subscription plans only. Available tiers:

PlanMonthly PriceConnected Site Limit
Starter$19Up to 3 sites
Growth$49Up to 10 sites
Unlimited$199No limit
  • All audits run using your own Anthropic API key.
  • BoltAudit does not provide or bill a prepaid credit mechanism.
  • You are responsible for any Anthropic API charges on your key.

6. Billing & Payments (Paddle)

All purchases on BoltAudit are processed by Paddle.com Market Ltd, which acts as the Merchant of Record. This means:

  • Paddle, not BoltAudit, is the legal seller on your receipt and invoice.
  • Paddle handles all payment processing, including card authorisation, fraud prevention, and PCI-DSS compliance.
  • Paddle calculates, collects, and remits applicable sales tax and VAT on all purchases.
  • Your payment information (card number, billing address) is collected and stored by Paddle, not by BoltAudit.
  • By completing a purchase, you also agree to Paddle's Buyer Terms.

Prices are displayed in USD exclusive of taxes. Tax is added at checkout by Paddle based on your location.

7. Bring Your Own Key (BYOK) Plan

You may use your own Anthropic API key to power BoltAudit audits. BYOK plans are billed monthly via Paddle.

  • Claude API costs are billed directly by Anthropic to your API key.
  • You are responsible for your Anthropic API key's security and for any charges Anthropic incurs on your key.
  • The BYOK subscription is monthly and renews automatically. You may cancel at any time from your account settings. Access continues until the end of the current paid billing period.

8. Refunds

Please see our dedicated Refund Policy for full details. In summary:

  • All BYOK subscription purchases are fully refundable within 14 days of the purchase date, no questions asked.
  • If an audit fails due to a technical error on our side, no BoltAudit platform balance is deducted because BoltAudit no longer uses prepaid balance billing.

9. Acceptable Use

You agree not to use BoltAudit to:

  • Audit websites you do not own or have explicit written permission to audit.
  • Conduct automated or scripted abuse of the API that exceeds the published rate limits.
  • Reverse-engineer, decompile, or extract proprietary AI prompts, audit logic, or scoring algorithms.
  • Resell or sublicense access to BoltAudit's AI audit API to third parties without a separate written agreement with us.
  • Use the service to generate audit reports for illegal purposes or to facilitate hacking, phishing, or other harmful activity against third-party sites.
  • Upload or transmit malware, viruses, or any code designed to interfere with the platform.

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms, without refund.

10. WordPress Plugin

The BoltAudit WordPress plugin is distributed under the GNU General Public License v2.0 or later (GPL-2.0+), consistent with WordPress.org's licensing requirements. The plugin code is open source. The cloud service accessed by the plugin is a separate, proprietary service governed by these Terms.

The plugin will not transmit any data to BoltAudit servers until you explicitly connect your site from within the plugin dashboard and complete the registration flow. You can disconnect your site at any time, which will stop all data transmission and delete your site's API keys from our servers.

11. Your Data & Privacy

Your use of BoltAudit is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference. You retain ownership of all data you provide to BoltAudit. You grant BoltAudit a limited licence to process that data solely for the purpose of providing the service.

Audit reports generated by BoltAudit belong to you. You may export, share, or delete your reports at any time.

12. Intellectual Property

The BoltAudit platform, including its design, software, AI prompts, scoring algorithms, and brand assets, is the intellectual property of HalalBrains. These Terms do not grant you any rights to our intellectual property except the limited licence to use the service as described.

The audit reports produced by BoltAudit are derived from data you provided. You own your reports. We retain a right to use anonymised, aggregated audit data (e.g., average scores across industries) for product improvement and benchmarking.

13. Service Availability

We aim to keep BoltAudit available and operational but do not guarantee 100% uptime. Scheduled maintenance, infrastructure issues, or third-party service outages (Cloudflare, Anthropic, Paddle) may result in temporary unavailability. We will endeavour to post notice of planned maintenance on our status page.

We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the service at any time, with or without notice, though we will make reasonable efforts to notify users of material changes.

14. Disclaimer of Warranties

BoltAudit is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, either express or implied, including but not limited to warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement.

Audit reports are generated by AI and are intended as guidance only. They do not constitute professional security, legal, or technical advice. BoltAudit does not guarantee that following the recommendations in an audit report will achieve any specific outcome, including improved search rankings, security posture, or site performance.

15. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, BoltAudit and HalalBrains shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including but not limited to loss of profits, loss of data, loss of goodwill, or business interruption, arising out of or in connection with your use of the service.

Our total aggregate liability to you for any claim arising under these Terms shall not exceed the greater of (a) the amount you paid to BoltAudit in the 12 months preceding the claim, or (b) $50 USD.

16. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless BoltAudit, HalalBrains, and their respective officers, employees, and agents from any claims, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from: (a) your use of the service in violation of these Terms; (b) your violation of any third-party rights; or (c) content or data you submit to the service.

17. Termination

You may delete your account at any time from your account settings. Upon deletion: your account data is scheduled for removal within 30 days and billing records are retained for 7 years as required by law.

We may suspend or terminate your account immediately if you violate these Terms, engage in fraudulent activity, or pose a risk to the platform or other users. In the event of termination for cause, no subscription refund will be issued.

18. Governing Law & Disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. This governing law choice is consistent with Paddle's jurisdiction as Merchant of Record.

Any dispute arising from these Terms or your use of BoltAudit shall first be attempted to be resolved informally by contacting hello@boltaudit.com. If informal resolution fails after 30 days, disputes shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.

Notwithstanding the above, nothing in these Terms limits your statutory consumer rights under the laws of your country of residence.

19. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. When we make material changes, we will notify you by email at least 30 days before the changes take effect, and update the "last updated" date at the top of this page. Your continued use of BoltAudit after the effective date constitutes your acceptance of the updated Terms.

If you do not agree to the updated Terms, you must stop using BoltAudit and may delete your account.
