Repository-verified link behavior snapshot
The behavior below is a repository-verified snapshot. It is not a guarantee that every production host, route, redirect, cookie, or attribution setting is available. Before production use, security, privacy, attribution, cookie-consent, and Scout-terms review must confirm the behavior. Read the public Scout route and Trust page for the current public boundary.
| Input | Current result | Safe handling |
|---|---|---|
https://rightmark.ai/r/{code} with a valid code | Redirects into the referral route | Use the exact case and do not edit the code |
https://bscout.ai/{code} with a valid code | Resolves through the public Scout referral route | Test both host and canonical destination |
Bare or malformed /r/ path | Redirects to /scouts/ | Do not print it as a live referral link |
?ref={code} once with a valid code | Redirects through the referral route and lands on the same page when it is a plain internal path (lowercase segments); any other path lands on / | Use only a valid code and a plain internal landing path |
Repeated or malformed ref parameter | The parameter is stripped and the visitor stays on the same page | Do not rely on malformed parameters |
| The four campaign tags | Sanitized lower-case tags can be carried | Use only utm_source, utm_medium, utm_campaign, and utm_content |
| Other query parameters | Dropped by the public attribution boundary | Do not place private data in a URL |
General information, not legal advice.
A typed code is a lower-priority signal than a recorded click. The current Scout terms govern disclosure, conduct, conflicts, and any referral benefit. They do not promise a price, a buyer, or an outcome.
Link QA worksheet
General information, not legal advice.
| Check | Result |
|---|---|
| Code copied with exact case | pass / fix |
| Code is within the approved character and length pattern | pass / fix |
| Canonical host and path are printed beside the QR | pass / fix |
| QR opens the approved URL on a clean device | pass / fix |
Invalid-code fallback reaches /scouts/ | pass / fix |
| No email, owner name, archive detail, or private token is in the URL | pass / fix |
| Campaign tags are limited to the four campaign tags | pass / fix |
| Exact referral disclosure appears near the link: “I am a Rightmark Scout, and Rightmark pays me for introducing you.” | pass / fix |
| No price, buyer, approval, or compensation promise appears | pass / fix |
Do not put a one-time hop token, session token, password, or personal identifier into a printed QR. If a link is retired, stop distributing it and use the current Scout route. Referral codes are not a substitute for an owner’s consent or a rights review.
Fictional scenario
A Scout wants to add a QR to a conference handout. The Scout first receives an approved code, creates a QR outside this guide’s scope, and encodes https://rightmark.ai/r/{code}. The handout prints the URL and says, “I am a Rightmark Scout, and Rightmark pays me for introducing you.” It makes no price claim. The Scout tests the code, an invalid code, and a tagged URL on a clean browser. The Scout does not add the owner’s email or archive details to the query string.
