How scanning works
Market data comes from scans with registered users' keys, inside Torn rate limits. Opt-ins control which scans your key joins. All optional. Change them in Settings → API.
The options
| Opt-in | What it does | Why enable |
|---|---|---|
| Unregistered Bazaar Scanning | Helps scan non-registered bazaars | Fresher listings for everyone |
| Item Market Scanning | Contributes item market snapshots | Better price comparisons |
| Ranked Weapon Scanning | Contributes ranked listings | Better Ranked Weapons results |
| Faction Scanning | Faction lookups via your key | Faction-aware features |
| Personal Stats | Shares personal stat snapshots | Leaderboards and My Stats |
| Eliminations scanning | Reads public elimination brackets and teams. Optional battlestats on the same key lets Targets compute your personal fair fight (at most once per 12 hours). You can type the four stats on the board instead. | Use the Eliminations board target finder |
| Hide My Bazaar From Tracking | Stops scanning your profile/bazaar, removes current listings, hides your bazaar from public listing views | Only if you want off the public aggregator |
Hide My Bazaar From Tracking
This is stronger than hiding a competitor. It takes your bazaar off the site's public listings.
