Vulnerability Disclosure

At Vacation Tracker Inc. we care deeply about your privacy, and we take pride in being a good steward of any data you choose to share with us. If you have any questions about how we use or handle user data, just ask and we’ll get back to you in a jiffy.

Introduction

Vacation Tracker welcomes feedback from security researchers and the general public to help improve our security. If you believe you have discovered a vulnerability, privacy issue, exposed data, or other security issues in any of our assets, we want to hear from you. This policy outlines steps for reporting vulnerabilities to us, what we expect, what you can expect from us.

Systems in Scope

This policy applies to publicly facing Vacation Tracker platform systems and digital assets owned, operated, or maintained by Vacation Tracker Technologies Inc. The Vacation Tracker systems in scope are located at:

• https://app.vacationtracker.io/– Vacation Tracker platform
• https://vacationtracker.io/ – Vacation Tracker website

Out of Scope

• Any assets or other equipment not owned by parties participating in this policy.

Vulnerabilities discovered or suspected in out-of-scope systems should be reported to the appropriate vendor or applicable authority.

Testing Guidelines

Vacation Tracker will consider your reports to be valid only if you adhere to the following conditions:

1. Your activities are limited exclusively to:
   1. Testing to detect a vulnerability or identify an indicator related to a vulnerability
   2. Sharing the information about identified vulnerabilities or indicators related to a vulnerability solely with Vacation Tracker via defined communication channels (see How To Report section of this document)
2. You will do no harm and will not exploit any vulnerability beyond the minimal amount of testing required to prove that a vulnerability exists or to identify an indicator related to a vulnerability.
3. You will avoid intentionally accessing the content of any data stored on Vacation Tracker systems – except to the extent that the information is directly related to a vulnerability and the access is necessary to prove that the vulnerability exists – as long as you are accessing your own data on our platform.
4. You will not exfiltrate any data under any circumstances.
5. You will not intentionally compromise the privacy of any Vacation Tracker personnel or any third parties.
6. You will not intentionally compromise the intellectual property or other commercial or financial interests of any Vacation Tracker personnel or entities, or any third parties.
7. You will not publicly disclose any details of the vulnerability, indicator of vulnerability, or the content of information rendered available by a vulnerability, except upon receiving express written authorization from Vacation Tracker.
8. If during your research you are inadvertently exposed to information that the public is not authorized to access, you will effectively and permanently erase all identified information in your possession as directed by Vacation Tracker and report to Vacation Tracker that you have done so.
9. You will not conduct denial of service testing.

10. You will not conduct physical testing (e.g. office access, open doors, tailgating) or social engineering, including phishing campaigns, concerning Vacation Tracker personnel or customers.
11. If at any point you are uncertain whether to continue testing, please engage with our team via appropriate channels described in the “How to report” section of this document.

Please make sure that you test according to the described best practices:

• Make sure that scanners have a narrow scope set that is limited to the in-scope systems only. Aggressive, overly broad scans or those that could jeopardize operation of the Vacation Tracker platform without permission will be considered invalid.
• Do not perform any actions that may negatively affect operations of Vacation Tracker platform or its users (e.g. Spam, Brute Force, Denial of Service…)
• Do not access or attempting to access data or information that does not belong to you
• Do not destroy or corrupt data or information that does not belong to you
• Do not conduct any kind of physical or electronic attack on Vacation Tracker personnel, property or data
• Do not not send unsolicited bulk messages (spam) or unauthorized messages.
• Do not knowingly post, transmit, upload, link to, or send any malware.
• Do not attack Vacation Tracker customers, partners or suppliers

Our Commitment

When working with us, according to this policy, you can expect us to:

• Respond to your report promptly, and work with you to understand and validate your report.
• Strive to keep you informed about the progress of a vulnerability as it is processed.
• Work to remediate discovered vulnerabilities in a timely manner, within our operational constraints.
• Extend Safe Harbor for your vulnerability research that is related to this policy.

Our Expectations

In participating in our vulnerability disclosure program in good faith, we ask that you:

• Play by the rules, including following this policy and any other relevant agreements. If there is any inconsistency between this policy and any other applicable terms, the terms of this policy will prevail.
• Report any vulnerability you’ve discovered promptly.
• Avoid violating the privacy of others, disrupting our systems, destroying data, and/or harming user experience.
• Use only the official channels to discuss vulnerability information with us.
• Provide us a reasonable amount of time (at least 180 days from the initial report) to resolve the issue before we disclose it publicly.
• If a vulnerability provides unintended access to data: Limit the amount of data you access to the minimum required for effectively demonstrating a Proof of Concept; and cease testing and submit a report immediately if you encounter any user data during testing, such as Personally Identifiable Information (PII), Personal Healthcare Information (PHI), credit card data, or proprietary information.
• You should only interact with test accounts you own or with explicit permission from the account holder.
• Do not engage in extortion.
