ARCBot

ARCBot is ARC's automated checker. It reads public store pages, stops before payment, and leaves a store alone when robots.txt disallows it.

Checks identify themselves with this user agent:

ARCBot/1.0 (+https://www.arcreport.ai/arcbot)

ARCBot does not create an account, type a payment card, or place an order. To opt out of future checks, add this to the store's robots.txt:

User-agent: ARCBot
Disallow: /

After that, ARC stops checking the host. Earlier saved results stay frozen and are left out of the published percentages.
