AI Adventuresque does not guarantee the copyright status of materials within its public or private knowledgebase and cannot ensure the accuracy of information provided on item details or collection pages regarding copyright or other intellectual property rights. According to our Terms of Use, users must utilize the knowledgebase at their own risk and ensure their use complies with all applicable laws and is non-infringing.

AI Adventuresque is committed to respecting the intellectual property and proprietary rights of others. Under certain circumstances and at our discretion, AI Adventuresque may remove or disable access to content that seems to infringe on the copyright or other intellectual property rights of others. If you believe your copyright has been infringed, you can either flag the content or contact us at flag@shatter-the-veil.com. Flagged documents are removed immediately but may be restored if further review determines the flagging was erroneous.

This Terms of Use Agreement (the "Agreement") outlines your use of the public or private knowledgebase available through Shatter the Veil ("STV"). By subscribing, you will be presented with these terms. If you do not agree to them, please do not subscribe or use the website (the "Site") or any of its applications.

Access to the public knowledgebase is free of charge. You must set up a free account on STV to access the knowledgebase. Your account should only be used to access the knowledgebase in ways that are consistent with this Agreement — no other use of the website, the knowledgebase, or the AI Adventuresque services is authorized. You agree not to interfere with the activities of other users or STV personnel, servers, or resources. Furthermore, you agree not to share your account with others. Please report any unauthorized use of your password promptly to flag@archive.org. You acknowledge that you have read and understood the STV Privacy Policy and agree that STV may collect, use, and distribute information in accordance with that policy. If you provide any content to the knowledgebase, you grant STV a nonexclusive, royalty-free right to use that content.

Some content available through STV may be subject to local, national, and/or international laws and regulations, and your use of such content is 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 knowledgebase. Specifically, you certify that your use of any part of the knowledgebase will be limited to non-infringing or fair use under copyright law. When using the STV site, knowledgebase, and/or services, you further agree (a) not to violate anyone's privacy rights, (b) not to act in a way that might lead 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 a way that might be harmful to minors, including, but not limited to, transmitting or facilitating the transmission of child pornography, which is prohibited by federal law and may be reported to the authorities if discovered by STV.

While we collect publicly available Internet artifacts, sometimes authors and publishers request that their documents not be included in the knowledgebase. If an author or publisher does not want their work in our knowledgebase, we may remove that work without notice.

The Archive may 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 knowledgebase or the Site.

STV 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. STV will attempt to notify you of significant modifications via the email address you have registered with us, if any.

Because the content of the knowledgebase comes from various sources around the world, the Collections may contain information that might be deemed offensive, disturbing, pornographic, racist, sexist, bizarre, misleading, fraudulent, or otherwise objectionable. STV does not endorse or sponsor any content in the knowledgebase, nor does it guarantee or warrant that the content available in the knowledgebase is accurate, complete, non-infringing, or legally accessible in your jurisdiction, and you agree that you are solely responsible for complying with all laws and regulations that may be applicable to the viewing of the content. Additionally, the knowledgebase is provided to you on an as-is and as-available basis. You agree that your use of the Site and the knowledgebase is at your sole risk. You understand and agree that STV makes no warranty or representation regarding the accuracy, currency, completeness, reliability, or usefulness of the content in the knowledgebase, that the Site or the knowledgebase will meet your requirements, that access to the knowledgebase 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 STV 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 the laws of Washington and that any suit arising from this Agreement will be brought in the state of Washington. Additionally, 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.
