# EasyAIActLabelsBot: What the bot reads and how to block it

Last updated: 30 September 2026

EasyAIActLabelsBot is the program behind the store check in the free [AI image checker](/en/ai-image-checker/) by Easy AI Act Image Labels. It only fetches a store when someone enters that store’s address in the checker, and it only reads what the store shows every visitor publicly.

## What does the bot read?

Per request, at most:

-   the store’s `robots.txt`, first and before any other request,
-   `/products.json` and `/collections.json`, the public product and collection lists of a Shopify store, to count products, product images and collections,
-   the home page and up to 3 product pages, to see whether an EU label for AI images appears there,
-   up to 30 image headers: of up to 30 delivered product images, the first 512 KB each via a range request, to count on how many copies a provenance marker (C2PA, IPTC) can be read.

The bot fetches nothing else. It does not sign in anywhere, does not enter passwords and does not bypass any browser check.

## What does the bot store?

No copies: it reads images and pages and discards them right away. The result of a request consists of numbers (products, product images, collections, whether an EU label is visible, on how many copies a marker can be read); the checker makes no statement about individual images of a store.

## How do you block the bot?

The bot follows `robots.txt` (RFC 9309) and looks for the token `EasyAIActLabelsBot`. If there is no group for it, it follows the rules for all programs (`User-agent: *`). To exclude it from your whole store, add:

```
User-agent: EasyAIActLabelsBot
Disallow: /
```

In Shopify you change `robots.txt` through the theme template `robots.txt.liquid`. If `robots.txt` excludes the bot, the checker stops the request and tells the person who asked.

## How do you recognize the bot?

Its user agent contains `EasyAIActLabelsBot` and a link to this page.
