Terms of Service

Rules for using HackerOnStreet: ethical learning only, accounts, advertising, and your responsibilities.

Agreement

By accessing https://hackeronstreet.com or using HackerOnStreet services (the “Site”), you agree to these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy and Cookies Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Site.

Educational & ethical use only

Content is for learning, research in authorized environments, and defensive security awareness. You must only practice techniques on systems you own or have explicit written permission to test.

Unauthorized access, attacks on third-party systems, fraud, malware distribution, or any illegal activity using Site content is strictly prohibited and may result in account termination and reporting to authorities.

Accounts & customer data

If you create a Student Lab or Studio-related account, you must provide accurate information, keep credentials confidential, and notify us of unauthorized use. You are responsible for activity under your account.

We process account and customer-support data as described in the Privacy Policy. We do not sell your personal information. You may request deletion or export of account-related personal data subject to legal retention needs.

Site content & intellectual property

Site branding, layout, and original writing are owned by HackerOnStreet Systems or its licensors. You may link to public pages and quote short excerpts with attribution for non-commercial commentary. Scraping at abusive rates, republishing full articles without permission, or removing notices is not allowed.

You retain rights to content you lawfully submit (e.g. bug reports). By submitting, you grant us a non-exclusive license to use that material to operate, secure, and improve the Site.

Advertising

The Site may display Google AdSense and similar ads. Ads are provided by third parties and may use cookies or similar technologies subject to your consent choices and our Cookies Policy. We are not responsible for third-party ad destinations or offers.

Acceptable use

You agree not to:

  • Attempt to break into, disrupt, or overload the Site or related infrastructure.
  • Bypass authentication, rate limits, or security controls.
  • Upload malware, spam, or unlawful content.
  • Misrepresent affiliation with HackerOnStreet.
  • Use automated scraping that harms service availability.

Disclaimers

Content is provided “as is” for educational purposes. Security tools and techniques can cause harm if misused. We do not warrant that content is complete, current, or fit for a particular purpose. You assume all risk for how you apply information from the Site.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, HackerOnStreet Systems and its operators are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of data, profits, or business arising from your use of the Site. Our aggregate liability for claims relating to the Site is limited to the greater of fees you paid us in the prior 12 months (if any) or USD $50.

Indemnity

You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from claims arising from your misuse of the Site, violation of these Terms, or infringement of others’ rights.

Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of United States (with GDPR protections for EEA/UK visitors), without regard to conflict-of-law rules, except where mandatory consumer protections in your country apply. Courts with jurisdiction over the operator’s principal place of business shall hear disputes, subject to those mandatory rights.

Changes

We may update these Terms. Continued use after the Effective date changes means you accept the updated Terms. Material changes will be noted on this page.
