Questions & Answers

You can rescan a website by clicking the blue button "Update Report" that is present in the report page of every analyzed website, example google.com. You can rescan a website after 15 minutes from the last scan date, but please do not abuse this option or we will need to restrict its usage.

You should use APIVoid's Domain Reputation API that lets you scan in real-time (results are always up-to-date) a domain with multiple domain blacklists, it provides also server details such as IP address, geolocation, ISP, etc.

URLVoid is a free service that queries other third-party services and cannot be used/integrated in commercial services/products. If the service detects automated URL submissions made by robots/scripts, the service may automatically ban the IP address that is responsible for making too many requests within N seconds.

You may temporarily store information gathered by URLVoid somewhere, but you cannot sell/resell/transfer for a value that data. The information shown by URLVoid may be copyright of URLVoid, of different DNSBL services and/or of other web services and you may not use that data commercially without prior contacting them directly.

When you submit an URL or a host on URLVoid's service you grant us the permission to do anything with the data you have submitted. When a domain has been detected by at least 1 engine, we may share it with third-party security companies and security researchers. We may share and/or sell the database of URLs/hosts (not including the detections), just the list of submitted URLs/hosts.

URLVoid is not responsible for false positive detections, this service is used to gather information about a website by querying external services that are not managed by URLVoid. All the false positive issues should be addressed directly with the company or individual that owns the scanning engine.

We check only the rating field related to the trustworthiness (user's comments are ignored), we want to avoid to detect a website related to a porn website as being dangerous. We are only interested about the trustworthiness of a website.

I would recommend to read these external links:

• My site is blacklisted by WOT
• My site was blacklisted by a third party, how can I fix this?
• I think my ratings are manipulated, what can I do?
• How can I get more/improve ratings for my site?
• My site has no reputation, what can I do?
• Are the ratings based only on users' input?
• How reliable are the ratings?
• How do I request a site review?

You should contact us at info[at]novirusthanks.org and send us some details about your service. Please note that we require that your scanning engine is fast, it should take no more than 2 or 3 seconds to output information about a submitted website and it should allow URLVoid's service to make thousands of queries per day.
