Why it crawls your site
The bot crawls to ensure that the Peruze shopping app displays current and accurate information for products curated from independent brands. By periodically checking public-facing product pages and JSON feeds, it enables features like price-drop alerts and availability notifications for consumers. Operators can verify the bot's authenticity through its use of HTTP Message Signatures, which provides a cryptographically secure way to confirm the requests originate from Peruze Technology Limited.
