About THAVIQBot

Last updated 10 September 2026

THAVIQBot is the crawler used for customer-requested accessibility scans. Its user agent is THAVIQBot/1.0 (+https://thaviq.com/bot) .

How it crawls

• It requests robots.txt, follows applicable disallow rules and honours crawl-delay.
• It uses sitemaps first and otherwise follows same-origin HTML links.
• It limits concurrency, spaces requests per host and backs off on 429 or 503 responses.
• It does not attempt authentication or bypass access controls.
• It audits representative templates and records how many discovered pages they represent.

Control and contact

Site owners can use standard robots.txt directives for THAVIQBot. To report unexpected crawler activity, email bot@thaviq.com with the hostname, timestamp and source request ID.
