Welcome to Bathyk. Bathyk (“we”, “us”, “our”) is a product of dock30 (“dock30”). By accessing bathyk.com (“the Site”), submitting code or a project to us, or otherwise using our services, you agree to these Terms & Conditions (“Terms”). If you do not agree, do not use the Site or our services.
1. Who we are
Bathyk provides paid and free code-review services delivered remotely to founders, startups, and engineering teams. We are operated by dock30, registered in the European Union. You can contact us at crew@dock30.com.
2. The free 48-hour audit
When you submit a project for our free audit, you receive: three detailed findings, a total issue count, and a severity breakdown, delivered within 48 business hours of submission. The free audit is provided “as is”, with no warranty that we will identify every defect in your code.
3. Paid audits and remediation
Paid audits, fix-it-for-you remediation, and re-audit verifications are subject to a separate written engagement (statement of work or quote) issued by us and accepted by you in writing or by email. The published price ranges on the Site are starting prices and are not binding offers; final pricing depends on scope.
4. Standing non-disclosure of submitted code
All code you submit to us is treated as confidential. By submitting source, archives, repository links, or any related materials, you grant us a limited license to access, decompress, read, store, and analyse them for the sole purpose of delivering the requested audit.
We commit to:
- not disclose your code to any third party,
- limit access to one or two senior engineers directly working on your audit,
- not use your code, repositories, or any derived artefacts to train machine-learning models,
- delete your code from our active systems within 30 days of audit delivery, unless you have an active paid engagement requiring continued access, and
- sign a separate, mutual NDA on request before you submit anything, free of charge.
This non-disclosure obligation survives the end of any engagement.
5. Your responsibilities
- You confirm that you own the code you submit, or that you have written permission from the owner to share it for review.
- You will not submit code that is subject to export controls, that contains live customer data, secrets, credentials, or personal data, or that would be unlawful for us to receive.
- You will not use our findings to misrepresent the security or quality of any product to third parties.
6. Findings, deliverables and IP
You retain all ownership of your code. We retain ownership of our internal review tooling, methodology, severity rubric and any aggregated, fully anonymised metrics derived in the course of doing our work. The findings report we deliver to you is licensed to you for unrestricted internal use.
7. No warranty
Our service is a human review of a snapshot of your code. We do not guarantee that we will identify every vulnerability, bug, or design flaw. The Site and the audit are provided “as is” and “as available”. To the extent permitted by law, we disclaim all implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.
8. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, our aggregate liability to you under or relating to these Terms or any audit is limited to the amount you actually paid us in the 12 months preceding the claim, or €100, whichever is greater. We are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages.
9. Acceptable use of the Site
Do not attempt to interfere with, probe, scan, or test the vulnerability of the Site or its infrastructure beyond ordinary use, submit malware, or use the Site to harm any person.
10. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. The current version is always at this URL with an updated effective date. Material changes take effect when posted; continued use after that date constitutes acceptance.
11. Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the jurisdiction in which dock30 is registered, without regard to conflict-of-laws principles. Any dispute arising from these Terms is subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the competent courts of that jurisdiction.
