These Terms of Use (the “Terms”) outline the rules and restrictions that govern your use of the Accessibility Scanner made by QA Madness.
The Terms govern the relationship between you as a visitor of our Website (“User” or “you”) and QA Madness (“Company”, “we”, “us”), registered under the law of Poland with a registered address at 151 Aleje Jerozolimskie, Office 10, Warsaw, 02-326, Poland.
By using any part of our Services, you enter into a legally binding contract with us. We kindly ask you to read the Terms carefully before using the Services. If you do not agree to these Terms, please do not use our Services. As we do care about your privacy, please find some time to go through our Privacy Policy as well.
If you have any questions, comments, or concerns regarding these Terms or the Services in general, please contact us at hello@qamadness.com.
Accessibility Scanner Services
The Services are available via the web interface at https://scan.qamadness.com/. We provide an automated tool designed to scan websites for accessibility compliance. Our Service helps identify technical accessibility barriers by analyzing the HTML structure of the provided URL.
Please keep in mind that automated tools generally detect only approximately 30% of accessibility issues. A “clean” scan report does not guarantee that a website is 100% compliant with legal standards or fully accessible to all users. The scan is performed on individual pages. To analyze a full domain or track history, a registered account and/or specific subscription may be required.
Registration
You can access our Services as a guest or a registered user. Access without registration allows you to perform a “Free automated scan” for individual pages and view basic WCAG reports without an account. However, advanced features require registration. To start the Registration Process, you must provide your name and a business or personal email address. After signing up, a verification message will be sent to your email; you must follow its instructions to activate your account.
Regarding B2B Account Usage, accounts may be used by individuals acting on behalf of an organization. By registering with a corporate email, you confirm you have the authority to bind your organization to these Terms. In a B2B context, the organization is responsible for managing its users. Business users must ensure they have the legal right to scan the websites they submit to the Service.
Your Data and Privacy
Beside these Terms, QA Madness has a Privacy Policy. Together with the Terms, the Privacy Policy forms the foundation of our binding relationship. The Policy explains how we collect and process your personal data and what rights you have regarding it. We may suspend or delete your account and associated data upon your request, if you violate these Terms, misuse the Services, or where required by applicable law. If we determine that you are not eligible to use our Services, or you are engaging in misleading usage, we reserve the right to investigate any such case and delete an account.
For detailed information about how we collect, use, store, and process your data, as well as your rights and applicable data retention periods, please refer to our Privacy Policy.
Children Data Processing
Under the GDPR, parental consent is required for processing the personal data of children in relation to online services.
QA Madness does not intentionally gather or request personally identifiable data from children. If you are below the age at which you can lawfully provide consent to the processing of your personal data under applicable law, please do not register for our Services or share any personal details with us. Once we discover that we have collected such information, we will promptly delete it and close the related account. If you suspect that a child has provided us with personal data, please reach out to us at hello@qamadness.com.
