Responsible Disclosure Policy

Purpose

To allow for the reporting and disclosure of vulnerabilities discovered by external entities, and anonymous reporting of information security and privacy policy violations by internal entities.

Scope

Favro’s Responsible Disclosure Policy applies to Favro’s core platform and its information security and privacy infrastructure, and to internal and external employees or third parties.

Background

Favro is committed to ensuring the safety, security and privacy of our customers. and employees. We aim to foster an environment of trust, and an open partnership with the security and privacy community, and we recognize the importance of vulnerability disclosures and whistleblowers in continuing to ensure safety, security and privacy for all of our customers, employees and company. We have developed this policy to both reflect our corporate values and to uphold our legal responsibility to good-faith security researchers that are providing us with their expertise and whistleblowers who add an extra layer of security to our infrastructure.

Roles and Responsibilities

Security and Privacy Compliance group is responsible for update, review and overall maintenance of this policy.

Legal Posture

Favro will not engage in legal action against individuals who submit vulnerability reports through our Vulnerability Reporting inbox. We openly accept reports for the currently listed Favro products. We agree not to pursue legal action against individuals who:

  • Engage in testing of systems/research without harming Favro or its customers.

  • Engage in vulnerability testing within the scope of our vulnerability disclosure program.

  • Test on products without affecting customers, or receive permission/consent from customers before engaging in vulnerability testing against their devices/software, etc.

  • Adhere to the laws of their location and the location of Favro. For example, violating laws that would only result in a claim by Favro (and not a criminal claim) may be acceptable as Favro is authorizing the activity (reverse engineering or circumventing protective measures) to improve its system.

Refrain from disclosing vulnerability details to the public before a mutually agreed-upon timeframe expires.
