1. Program Overview

The DriftLine Bug Bounty Program ("Program") rewards users who discover and report software bugs, data inaccuracies, or other issues in the DriftLine application. This Program is a performance-based compensation arrangement for verified work product, not a sweepstakes, contest, or game of chance.

Rewards are issued at DriftLine's sole discretion based on the quality, severity, and impact of verified reports.

• You must have a registered DriftLine account.

Rewards are issued as digital gift cards and typically processed within 7 days of verification.

9. Prohibited Conduct

• Exploiting vulnerabilities beyond what is necessary to demonstrate the bug

10. Safe Harbor

DriftLine will not pursue legal action against participants who act in good faith, report through the designated process, and do not violate applicable laws.

11. No Review Incentives

This Program has no connection to app store ratings or reviews of any kind.

12. Privacy

Personal information is used only for report processing and reward fulfillment. Reports and personal data are not shared publicly.
