Terms of use

These terms cover using Steeplejack at steeplejack.mikestreety.co.uk. Steeplejack is in early testing and free to use. These terms are an initial version and will be reviewed before it leaves testing.

Who runs it

Steeplejack is run by Mike Street, a sole trader in the UK. Email steeplejack@mikestreety.co.uk about anything in these terms.

The service

Steeplejack surveys a website’s homepage and a small sample of public pages, and reports on search, AI discoverability, security, accessibility and performance. A free survey is passive: it only requests public pages and records, as a visitor’s browser would. SteeplejackBot lists exactly what it requests.

Anyone can see a summary of a site’s latest survey. A free account with a confirmed email address shows the full report and lets you track up to five sites.

Your account

An account is for one person. Use your real email address, and keep your password and any passkeys to yourself. You can close your account at any time from your account page, which removes it straight away.

Fair use

Survey sites you have a reason to look at, such as your own, your clients’, or competitors’ public homepages. Don’t:

• use Steeplejack to harass anyone, or to imply a site owner asked for a survey when they didn’t
• get around the limits, for example with several accounts or by automating surveys
• copy reports in bulk, or interfere with the service or the sites it surveys.

Accounts that break these terms may be suspended or closed.

Shared results

Free results belong to the site rather than to whoever asked for them. Everyone tracking a site sees its latest survey, and anyone entering its address sees a summary with the security results left out. Surveys you start aren’t linked to your name in what others see.

Accuracy

Results are automated, passive and limited to the pages sampled. They can be wrong, out of date or miss things, and scores are a guide rather than a verdict on a site. Check anything before acting on it.

If you think a result about your site is wrong, email steeplejack@mikestreety.co.uk and it will be looked at.

Site owners

If you own a site and don’t want it surveyed, email steeplejack@mikestreety.co.uk. Once it’s on the exclusion list, new surveys are refused and its results are no longer shown. SteeplejackBot has more detail.

Changes

While Steeplejack is in testing, features, limits and these terms may change, and the service may pause or stop. Significant changes to these terms will be emailed to account holders before they apply.

Liability

Steeplejack is provided free and as it is, without any promise that it will be available, complete or error-free. Nothing in these terms limits liability where the law doesn’t allow it.

Law

These terms are governed by the law of England and Wales.
