If you have identified a vulnerability in any of our online assets, you must disclose that to Kingfisher in accordance with this Responsible Disclosure Policy using the submission form below. Kingfisher may, at its sole discretion, engage with security researchers where a vulnerability is reported pursuant to this Responsible Disclosure Policy. Where a security vulnerability is proven and verified by Kingfisher, we will remedy such vulnerability.
