**Internet 
                      Archive's Terms of Use, Privacy Policy, and Copyright Policy** **Terms 
                      of Use**
                      10 March 2001
                    This 
                      terms of use agreement (the "Agreement") governs 
                      your use of the collection of Web pages and other digital 
                      content (the "Collections") available through 
                      the Internet Archive (the "Archive"). When accessing 
                      an archived page, you will be presented with the terms of 
                      use agreement. If you do not agree to these terms, please 
                      do not use the Archive’s Collections or its Web site 
                      (the "Site").
                    Access 
                      to the Archive’s Collections is provided at no cost 
                      to you and is granted for scholarship and research purposes 
                      only. The Archive, at its sole discretion, may provide you 
                      with a password to access certain Collections, provided 
                      that you complete any required application process and provide 
                      accurate information in your application. You may use your 
                      password only to access the Collections in ways consistent 
                      with this Agreement — no other access to or use of 
                      the Site, the Collections, or the Archive's services is 
                      authorized. You agree not to interfere with the work of 
                      other users or Archive personnel, servers, or resources. 
                      Further, you agree not to recirculate your password to other 
                      people or organizations or to copy offsite any part of the 
                      Collections without written permission. Please report any 
                      unauthorized use of your password promptly to [email protected]. 
                      You acknowledge that you have read and understood the Archive’s 
                      Privacy Policy and agree that the Archive may collect, use, 
                      and distribute information pursuant to that policy. If you 
                      provide any content to the Archive, you grant the Archive 
                      a nonexclusive, royalty-free right to use that content.
                    Some 
                      of the content available through the Archive may be governed 
                      by local, national, and/or international laws and regulations, 
                      and your use of such content is solely at your own risk. 
                      You agree to abide by all applicable laws and regulations, 
                      including intellectual property laws, in connection with 
                      your use of the Archive. In particular, you certify that 
                      your use of any part of the Archive's Collections will be 
                      noncommercial and will be limited to noninfringing or fair 
                      use under copyright law. In using the Archive's site, Collections, 
                      and/or services, you further agree (a) not to violate anyone's 
                      rights of privacy, (b) not to act in any way that might 
                      give rise to civil or criminal liability, (c) not to use 
                      or attempt to use another person's password, (d) not to 
                      collect or store personal data about anyone, (e) not to 
                      infringe any copyright, trademark, patent, or other proprietary 
                      rights of any person, (f) not to transmit or facilitate 
                      the transmission of unsolicited email ("spam"), 
                      (g) not to harass, threaten, or otherwise annoy anyone, 
                      and (h) not to act in any way that might be harmful to minors, 
                      including, without limitation, transmitting or facilitating 
                      the transmission of child pornography, which is prohibited 
                      by federal law and may be reported to the authorities should 
                      it be discovered by the Archive.
                    You 
                      agree that we may contact you from time to time with surveys 
                      or other questions regarding your opinions about and uses 
                      of the Archive, as well as with information we believe may 
                      be of interest to you. We encourage you to respond to these 
                      surveys because we value your input, which will assist us 
                      in improving the Archive. In addition, we request that, 
                      according to standard academic practice, if you use the 
                      Archive's Collections for any research that results in an 
                      article, a book, or other publication, you list the Archive 
                      as a resource in your bibliography.
                    While 
                      we collect publicly available Internet documents, sometimes 
                      authors and publishers express a desire for their documents 
                      not to be included in the Collections (by tagging a file 
                      for robot exclusion or by contacting us or the original 
                      crawler group). If the author or publisher of some part 
                      of the Archive does not want his or her work in our Collections, 
                      then we may remove that portion of the Collections without 
                      notice.
                    The 
                      Archive may immediately terminate this Agreement at its 
                      sole discretion at any time upon written notice (including 
                      via email) to you. Upon termination, you agree that the 
                      Archive may immediately deactivate any password it has issued 
                      to you and bar you from accessing the Collections or the 
                      Site.
                    The 
                      Archive may modify this Agreement from time to time, and 
                      your continued use of the Collections and/or the Site constitutes 
                      your acceptance of any and all modifications. The Archive 
                      will attempt to notify you of substantial modifications 
                      via the email address that you have registered with us, 
                      if any.
                    Because 
                      the content of the Collections comes from around the world 
                      and from many different sectors, the Collections may contain 
                      information that might be deemed offensive, disturbing, 
                      pornographic, racist, sexist, bizarre, misleading, fraudulent, 
                      or otherwise objectionable. The Archive does not endorse 
                      or sponsor any content in the Collections, nor does it guarantee 
                      or warrant that the content available in the Collections 
                      is accurate, complete, noninfringing, or legally accessible 
                      in your jurisdiction, and you agree that you are solely 
                      responsible for abiding by all laws and regulations that 
                      may be applicable to the viewing of the content. In addition, 
                      the Collections are provided to you on an as-is and as-available 
                      basis. You agree that your use of the Site and the Collections 
                      is at your sole risk. You understand and agree that the 
                      Archive makes no warranty or representation regarding the 
                      accuracy, currency, completeness, reliability, or usefulness 
                      of the content in the Collections, that the Site or the 
                      Collections will meet your requirements, that access to 
                      the Collections will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or 
                      error free, or that defects, if any, will be corrected. 
                      We make no warranty of any kind, either express or implied.
                    You 
                      agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Internet Archive 
                      and its parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, agents, officers, 
                      directors, and employees from and against any and all liability, 
                      loss, claims, damages, costs, and/or actions (including 
                      attorneys’ fees) arising from your use of the Archive’s 
                      services, the site, or the Collections. You agree that this 
                      Agreement is governed by California law and that any suit 
                      arising from this Agreement will be brought in San Francisco, 
                      California, and you further agree that on the election and 
                      reasonable notice of either party any litigation shall be 
                      referred to arbitration pursuant to the California Code 
                      of Civil Procedure, §§1280 et seq. In addition, 
                      you agree that should any provision in the Agreement be 
                      found invalid, unlawful, or unenforceable, that provision 
                      shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining 
                      provisions.
                    Under 
                      no circumstances, including, without limitation, negligence, 
                      shall the Archive or its parents, affiliates, officers, 
                      employees, or agents be responsible for any indirect, incidental, 
                      special, or consequential damages arising from or in connection 
                      with the use of or the inability to use the Site or the 
                      Collections, or any content contained on the Site or in 
                      the Collections, or resulting from unauthorized access to 
                      the Collections or your transmissions of data, including, 
                      without limitation, damages for loss of profits, use, data, 
                      or other intangibles, even if the Archive has been advised 
                      of the possibility of such damages. Some jurisdictions do 
                      not allow the limitation or exclusion of liability for incidental 
                      or consequential damages, so some of the above may not apply 
                      to you.
                    This 
                      Agreement, the Privacy Policy, and other policies posted 
                      on the Site constitute the full and complete agreement between 
                      you and the Archive and are not intended to inure to third-party 
                      beneficiaries.
                    We 
                      welcome your input. Please contact us with any comments 
                      or questions at [email protected].
                    
                    **Privacy 
                      Policy**10 March 2001
                    The 
                      Internet Archive (the "Archive") is committed 
                      to making its constantly growing collection of Web pages 
                      and other forms of digital content (the "Collections") 
                      freely available to researchers, historians, scholars, and 
                      others ("Researchers") for purposes of benefit 
                      to the public. The Archive offers access to some of its 
                      Collections mainly by allowing Researchers to access its 
                      Unix machines. This open approach is somewhat like the situation 
                      in a public library, where staff and patrons might see who 
                      else was in the library and a bit of what they were working 
                      on. When Researchers using the Collections log on to the 
                      same Unix machine using different accounts, some sharing 
                      of information may take place. While the Archive endeavors 
                      to enforce its Terms of Use (http://www.archive.org/terms/index.html) 
                      and maintain standard computer security, it is important 
                      for both those who visit the site ("Visitors") 
                      and Researchers (collectively, "Users") to be 
                      aware of the open nature of the Archive.
                    The 
                      Archive may make changes to this policy from time to time 
                      and will notify you of such changes by posting an updated 
                      date in the Terms, Privacy, and Copyright link at the bottom 
                      the home page of the Archive's Web site (the "Site"). 
                      Your continued use of the Site and/or the Collections constitutes 
                      your acceptance of any changes to the Privacy Policy concerning, 
                      but not limited to, both previously and prospectively collected 
                      information.
                    
                    What 
                      Personal Information May the Archive Have on Its Computers 
                      and Systems?
                      Because the Archive uses standard Web logging in its Web 
                      servers, our Web server may automatically recognize the 
                      domain name of each Visitor, each Visitor’s IP address, 
                      what Web page the Visitor requests, and the time of the

                      the visitor’s browser. See www.microsoft.com and www.netscape.com 
                      for information about the Microsoft Internet Explorer and

                    In 
                      addition, the Archive may collect the email addresses and 
                      messages of those who communicate with it via email or who 
                      enter email addresses in forms.
                    The 
                      Archive may collect personally identifying information when 
                      a Researcher registers for access to the Collections, including 
                      the Researcher’s name, address, telephone number, 
                      and email address, and the Researcher’s proposal for 
                      using the Collections.
                    The 
                      Archive may use "cookies" to track Users' activities 
                      on the Site and in the Collections. Cookies are small files 
                      that a server transfers to the hard drive of someone who 
                      visits a site and that the server can access when the person 
                      returns to the site.
                    The 
                      primary sources of content for the Collections are publicly 
                      accessible Web pages that were collected and donated by 
                      third parties, but the Archive will expand on such sources 
                      through its own collection activities. For instructions 
                      on removing a particular set of pages currently included 
                      in the Collections, please see our policies and procedures 
                      for page removal.
                    The 
                      communications between you and the Archive may pass through 
                      many machines, operating systems, programs, browsers, Web 
                      servers, networks, routers, Ethernet switches, Internet 
                      service providers, proxy servers, intranets, the public 
                      phone system, or other devices (collectively, "Devices") 
                      on your premises, at the Archive, and in between. Some of 
                      these Devices create logs of activities that are recorded 
                      on computer systems.
                    
                    What 
                      Might the Internet Archive Do With the Information on Its 
                      Computers?
                      The Archive has no present intention to charge for access 
                      to the Collections. The Archive may transfer the information 
                      on its machines, including personally identifying information, 
                      into the Collections. The Collections are made available 
                      to researchers and may be made available on the Site, or 
                      provided to third parties, for any use, without limitation. 
                      For instance, parts of the Collections are now in the collections 
                      of the Library of Congress and the Smithsonian Institution.
                    Advances 
                      in data mining technology may make it possible to discover 
                      more personally identifiable information or profiles in 
                      the Collections.
                    The 
                      Archive may disclose any information it collects from Users 
                      if the Archive believes in good faith that such action is 
                      reasonably necessary to enforce its Terms of Use or other 
                      policies, to comply with the law, to comply with legal process, 
                      to operate its systems properly, or to protect the rights 
                      or property of itself, its Users, or others.
                    It 
                      is possible that the computers at the Archive could become 
                      compromised by others and that the information on the Archive’s 
                      computers could be collected and disseminated without the 
                      knowledge or consent of the Archive. While the Archive endeavors 
                      to block "crackers" from breaking into its machines, 
                      the Archive is not responsible or liable for any such unauthorized 
                      uses of the Archive or its data.
                    
                    **How 
                      to Update Researcher Registration Information**Researchers can help the Archive maintain the accuracy of 
                      their information by notifying the Archive of any changes 
                      in their address, title, phone number, or email address.
