Acceptable Use Policy
Last updated: April 1, 2026
This policy governs what you can and cannot do with Proxly. It's written to be read, not to be obfuscated. If you have a use case you're not sure about, email us before you build on it.
Permitted use
Web scraping and data collection
Collecting publicly available data from websites — prices, listings, search results, news, public social content. The data must be publicly accessible without authentication.
Ad verification
Checking that your ads appear correctly in different regions, that competitors aren't running fraudulent ads using your brand, and that publisher placements look as contracted.
Brand and IP monitoring
Monitoring for trademark infringement, counterfeit products, and unauthorized use of your brand across e-commerce platforms and marketplaces.
Security research
Testing systems you own or have written authorization to test. Bug bounty programs typically constitute sufficient authorization for their defined scope.
SEO and market intelligence
Monitoring search rankings, competitor pricing, and market conditions using public data sources.
Prohibited use
Credential stuffing and account takeover
Using the network to test stolen username/password pairs against login forms, or to gain unauthorized access to accounts you don't own. This is a hard prohibition with no exceptions.
Spam
Sending unsolicited messages of any kind — email, SMS, social media DMs, forum posts, contact form submissions. This includes scraping contact information for unsolicited outreach.
Unauthorized access
Bypassing authentication or access controls on systems you don't have permission to access. This includes scraping behind-login content you aren't authorized to view.
Malware and botnets
Distributing malware, participating in botnet command-and-control, or using the network for any purpose that causes harm to third-party systems.
Reselling without agreement
Reselling access to the Proxly network to third parties without a written reseller agreement. Contact us if you want to build a product on top of the API.
Enforcement
We monitor network usage for patterns consistent with prohibited activity. When we identify a violation, we'll suspend the account and notify you by email. You have the right to contest a suspension — email trust@proxly.cc and we'll review within 2 business days.
Questions
If your use case isn't clearly covered, email trust@proxly.cc before you build. We'll give you a clear answer.
