bug bounty · free to join · in-house triage

Catch us — get a reward.

Our own program. We accept two kinds of findings: classic vulnerabilities (track A) and refutations of our security report (track B). Payout tiers are shared for both; the reward is credited to your platform balance.

scope

Where you can hunt.

In scope

  • createyourvpn.com and api.createyourvpn.com
  • your own storefront domains
  • an explicitly designated test server

Out of scope

  • partners' and end users' servers and data
  • denial-of-service / stress testing
  • social engineering, spam, phishing
  • physical access

Active testing is allowed only on the preprod stand (pp.*), so the hunt never touches live partners or their users. Issues that also affect production still count — just reproduce them on the stand.

best-practice notes; a missing header without an exploit

rules

Short and honest.

  • Run active tests only on the designated preprod stand (pp.*) — never against production, partner or user servers.
  • The reward goes only to the first reporter; duplicates get a hall-of-fame credit.
  • A reproducible proof of concept is required; 'you're missing header X' without an exploit is hall of fame, not a reward.
  • Responsible disclosure: 90 days of silence; we respond within 72 hours.
  • Safe harbor: we won't pursue good-faith research within scope.
  • Test only on your own accounts.
  • Out of scope: partners' and users' servers and data, denial of service, social engineering, spam, physical access.
