Why it crawls your site
The crawler visits websites specifically to generate accessibility reports and visual records, such as screenshots, which help store owners identify and fix barriers for users with disabilities. It does not use the collected data for AI model training or general indexing purposes. Site owners can verify the bot's identity through its specific User-Agent, the 'Signature-Agent' header, and the public directory of HTTP message signature keys provided on the operator's documentation site.
