Subjects > Computers > Software > Software License Agreements
Thank you for using the Google Web APIs™ service. By using
this service ("Google Web APIs") you agree to be bound by
the following terms and conditions (the "Terms and
Conditions").
PERSONAL AND LEGITIMATE USES ONLY
The Google Web APIs service is made available to you for
your personal, non-commercial use only (at home or at
work). You may only create a single account and must
provide accurate identification, contact, and other
information required as part of the registration process.
You may not create any script or other automated tool
that attempts to create multiple Google Web APIs accounts.
And you may not use the search results provided by the
Google Web APIs service with an existing product or
service that competes with products or services offered
by Google.
If you are interested in doing anything different than
the foregoing, you must first obtain Google's written
consent. If you fail to do so, Google reserves the right
to take legal action.
Furthermore, you may not use Google Web APIs in any
manner that either directly or indirectly violates any
laws or proprietary rights. This includes laws and
proprietary rights in the United States as well as
in other countries.
If you have questions on your contemplated use or if you
have comments on Google Web APIs or ideas on how to
improve it, please email api-support@google.com. Please
note that by doing so, you also grant Google permission
to use and incorporate your ideas or comments into Google
Web APIs without further compensation.
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
You agree not to remove, obscure, or alter Google's
copyright notice, trademarks, or other proprietary rights
notices affixed to or contained within Google Web APIs.
You also acknowledge that Google owns all right, title
and interest in and to Google Web APIs, including without
limitation all intellectual property rights (the "Google
Rights"). The Google Rights include rights to the
following: (1) the APIs developed and provided by Google,
(2) all software associated with the Google Web APIs
server, and (3) the search results and spell checking you
obtain when you use Google Web APIs. The Google Rights do
not include the following: (1) third-party components used
as part of Google Web APIs; or (2) software developed by
you in conjunction with using Google Web APIs.
PUBLICITY
So long as you comply with your obligations under this
Agreement, you may indicate that a product or service
that you created either used or is based on Google Web
APIs provided that those products or services do not in
Google's reasonable opinion (1) tarnish, infringe, or
dilute Google's trademarks, (2) violate any applicable
law, and (3) infringe any third-party rights. If you
wish to use the GOOGLE trademark and/or logo in any
other manner, you must first obtain Google's written
consent.
DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES
The Google Web APIs service is currently in beta form
and has not been fully tested or debugged. Accordingly,
Google disclaims any responsibility for any harm
resulting from your use of Google Web APIs.
The Google Web APIs service is provided "as is," with no
warranties whatsoever. Google expressly disclaims to the
fullest extent permitted by law all express, implied,
and statutory warranties, including, withou limitation,
the warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular
purpose, and non-infringement of proprietary rights. Google
disclaims any warranties regarding the security,
reliability, timeliness, availability, and performance of
Google Web APIs.
You understand and agree that you use Google Web APIs
at your own discretion and risk and that you will be
solely responsible for any damages to your computer system
or loss of data that results from the download or use of
Google Web APIs.
Some states or other jurisdictions do not allow the
exclusion of implied warranties, so the above exclusions
may not apply to you. You may also have other rights that
vary from state to state and jurisdiction to jurisdiction.
LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
The Google Web APIs service is being provided free of
charge. Accordingly, you agree that Google shall have
no liability arising from or based on your use of Google
Web APIs.
Under no circumstances shall Google be liable to any
user on account of that user's use or misuse of
Google Web APIs. Such limitation of liability shall
apply to prevent recovery of direct, indirect,
incidental, consequential, special, exemplary, and
punitive damages whether such claim is based on warranty,
contract, tort (including negligence), or otherwise,
even if Google has been advised of the possibility of
such damages). Such limitation of liability shall apply
whether the damages arise from use or misuse of and
reliance on the Google Web APIs, from inability to use
Google Web APIs, or from the interruption, suspension,
or termination of Google Web APIs (including such damages
incurred by third parties). Such limitation shall apply
notwithstanding a failure of essential purpose of any
limited remedy and to the fullest extent permitted by law.
Some states or other jurisdictions do not allow the
exclusion or limitation of liability for incidental or
consequential damages, so the above limitations and
exclusions may not apply to you.
INDEMNIFICATION
You hereby agree to indemnify, defend and hold Google,
and its officers, directors, agents, licensors and
licensees (collectively, the "Indemnified Parties")
harmless from and against any and all liability and
costs incurred by the Indemnified Parties in connection
with any claim arising out of your use of Google Web APIs,
including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys'
fees. You shall cooperate as fully as reasonably required
in the defense of any claim. Google reserves the right, at
its own expense, to assume the exclusive defense and
control of any matter subject to indemnification by you.
GOOGLE'S SEARCH SERVICE
The Google Web APIs service is designed to be used in
conjunction with Google's search services. Accordingly,
your use of Google Web APIs is also defined by Google's
Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. In the event of a
conflict between these Terms and Conditions and Google's
Terms of Service, these Terms and Conditions shall prevail.
TERM AND TERMINATION
If you wish to terminate this Agreement, you may simply
cease using the Google Web APIs service. In such a case,
you must delete any search result information that you may
have obtained from the Google Web APIs service. Google may
terminate this Agreement (and your account) at any time,
with or without cause.
GENERAL PROVISIONS
These Terms and Conditions will be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of
California, without giving effect to the conflict of laws
or provisions of California or your actual state or country
of residence. Any dispute arising from these Terms and
Conditions shall be adjudicated in the federal or state
courts located in Santa Clara County, California. If for
any reason a court of competent jurisdiction finds any
provision or portion of these Terms and Conditions to be
unenforceable, the remainder of these Terms and Conditions
will continue in full force and effect. These Terms and
Conditions constitute the entire agreement between the
parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and
supersede and replace all prior or contemporaneous
understandings or agreements, written or oral, regarding
such subject matter. Any waiver of any provision of these
Terms and Conditions will be effective only if in writing
and signed by Google.
