[...] In particular: when you show results to people, show the source and link to the original article, don't rebuild, republish or redistribute articles from excerpts, don't keep excerpts or descriptions for more than 30 days (you may keep links and headlines), don't use results to train or fine-tune AI models, don't use typesearch to get around paywalls, logins or publishers' blocks, when we tell you that a publisher opted out, stop using the stored results from it within 30 days. |
