Fine Print

webmonitor.ninja is provided as an alerting and reporting aid, not as a guarantee that every outage, slowdown, DNS issue, SSL problem, payment interruption, or third-party service failure will be detected, diagnosed, delivered, or resolved.

Monitoring depends on networks, mail providers, SMS gateways, hosting environments, cron schedules, remote services, and configuration choices that may be outside our control. Alerts may be delayed, filtered, blocked, throttled, misrouted, or missed entirely.

By using this service, you agree that you remain responsible for your websites, applications, customers, backups, security decisions, incident response, regulatory obligations, and business continuity planning. Use the dashboard as one signal among many, and verify critical events independently.

The service is offered "as is" and "as available" to the fullest extent permitted by law. No promise is made that it will be uninterrupted, error-free, or fit for a particular purpose. Liability is limited to the amount you paid for the service during the billing period tied to the claim, where such limitation is allowed.
