  CREA publishes an RFC 9116 security.txt on its corporate website, which is the estate's only
  vulnerability-disclosure channel. It is thin and partly broken: the security contact is
  CREA's web agency rather than a CREA address, and all three referenced pages return HTTP 404.
  No bug bounty programme (HackerOne, Bugcrowd, Intigriti) and no responsible-disclosure page
  could be found on crea.ca or realtor.ca.

  note: Advertised as Policy in security.txt but returns HTTP 404 as of 2026-07-26.

contact_note: >-
  Alphabet Creative is CREA's web agency; the security.txt exposes no @crea.ca or @realtor.ca
  security address. General API support is support@realtor.ca (English only), which is a
  support channel, not a security channel.

  - Policy URL returns HTTP 404.
  - Acknowledgements URL returns HTTP 404.
