Vulnerability Disclosure Policy
Last updated: May 19, 2026
Our commitment
DiscoveryCo takes the security of offduty and the privacy of our users seriously. We welcome responsible disclosure of security vulnerabilities from the security community.
If you discover a security issue, please report it to us before making it public. We will investigate all legitimate reports promptly and work with you to understand and remediate the issue.
How to report
Please send vulnerability reports to:
Include as much detail as possible:
- A description of the vulnerability and its potential impact
- Steps to reproduce the issue (proof-of-concept, screenshots, or video)
- The affected URL, endpoint, or component
- Your name or handle (if you would like acknowledgment)
What to expect
Acknowledgement within 48 hours
We will confirm receipt of your report and begin our initial assessment.
Investigation and triage
We will investigate the report, reproduce the issue, and assess its severity. We'll keep you updated as we make progress.
Remediation
We aim to remediate confirmed vulnerabilities within 30 days for high-severity issues and 90 days for lower-severity findings, depending on complexity.
Disclosure coordination
We will coordinate with you on public disclosure timing. We ask that you do not disclose details publicly until the vulnerability has been resolved.

Good faith expected
We ask that researchers act in good faith: avoid accessing or modifying data that belongs to other users, do not disrupt the Service, and do not use vulnerabilities to extract data beyond what is necessary to demonstrate the issue.
