Free Data Feed Licensing Agreement

This Agreement describes the conditions under which you are permitted to display the free magazine article listing data feeds provided by MagPortal.com (the "Feeds") on your own web site (for the Terms of Use for the MagPortal.com site itself, see Help / Terms of Use). By using the Feeds you are indicating that you accept the terms of this Agreement. Hot Neuron LLC ("Hot Neuron") may revise this Agreement at any time without notice, and your continued use of the Feeds indicates your acceptance of the revised terms. It is your responsibility to check the terms of this Agreement.

Copyright
The content of the Feeds and the software supplied to utilize them are the property of Hot Neuron and are protected by U.S. and international copyright laws. Hot Neuron grants you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-assignable, personal, terminable at any time, license to use the Feeds provided by MagPortal.com to display limited article citation listings on your own web site according to the terms of this Agreement. You are prohibited from modifying, renting, leasing, selling, distributing, mirroring, imitating the design elements of, or creating derivative works based on the Feeds, in whole or in part, other than displaying them on your web site as described, without explicit written permission from Hot Neuron. Hot Neuron may request information such as URLs where Feed data will be displayed for the purpose of verifying compliance with this agreement. You agree to provide truthful and complete responses to such inquiries.

Trademarks and Service Marks
MagPortal.com and Hot Neuron are service marks of Hot Neuron LLC. Hot Neuron Similarity is a trademark of Hot Neuron LLC. You may make fair use of these marks in referring to our products and services as long as you provide standard attribution. Any other use is prohibited. The magazine names and column names appearing in the Feeds are the property of their respective publishers.

Display Requirements and Restrictions
Use of the Feeds must be accompanied by a clearly visible link that takes the user to http://MagPortal.com or to the corresponding current articles page for that category on MagPortal.com, and the text "powered by MagPortal.com" or simply "MagPortal.com" must be clearly displayed in close proximity to the article listing. You may not display the article citations in a way that creates ambiguity about Hot Neuron's ownership of the data or the publisher's ownership of the articles, or which otherwise damages the reputation of Hot Neuron or the magazine publishers. You may not use more than 10 feeds on a site without contacting us for permission. You may not frame the articles. You may not merge the Feeds with feeds or content from other sources. You may not reproduce the content of the articles themselves without the explicit permission of their copyright owner. You may not display the feed data on sites that contain or condone pornography, bigotry, illegal activities, or are otherwise offensive as determined by Hot Neuron in its sole discretion. You may not display the Feeds on web pages that automatically reload or refresh without user action (the feed data is updated once a day, so reloading the same data every few minutes is wasteful).

Fetching Data, Caching, and Restrictions on Archiving
You may only display the article citations currently provided by the Feeds through http://MagPortal.com/nr/feed.php (or /cgi-bin/feed.cgi). You are encouraged to cache the current copy of the data feed you are using on your local server to improve the response time of your web site and reduce the strain on the MagPortal.com server. You may not, however, archive or display old data sets, and you may not display listings resulting from merging data fetched at different times. You may not fetch data from the Feeds more frequently than is reasonably necessary (they are updated once a day).

Publicity
You agree that Hot Neuron may use your name or logo in press releases and marketing materials that list users of the MagPortal.com data Feeds. You may not, without advance written permission, publish or distribute marketing materials claiming any sort of affiliation or partnership with Hot Neuron or MagPortal.com.

Control of the Data Feeds
Hot Neuron reserves the right to change or remove feeds, modify or remove article citations, magazines, or other content, and correct errors or omissions in any part of the Feeds, at any time, without cause or notice.

Access Restrictions
Hot Neuron reserves the right to terminate or restrict your access to the Feeds, at any time, without cause or notice.

Privacy
Please view Help / Privacy Policy for details on the information we collect and how it is used. Note that we may disclose information if we believe in good faith that it is necessary to satisfy any law or regulation.

Feedback Information
Any feedback information provided to Hot Neuron shall be provided on a non-confidential basis. Hot Neuron shall be free to use such information on an unrestricted basis. By providing feedback information you hereby grant to Hot Neuron a perpetual, world-wide, irrevocable, unrestricted, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use, copy, license, sublicense, adapt, distribute, display, publicly perform, reproduce, transmit, modify, edit, and otherwise exploit such feedback, subject to MagPortal.com's Privacy Policy, in all media now known or hereafter developed.

Links and Third Parties
The Feeds provide links to numerous third party web sites. Such sites may contain material that is offensive to certain users. We do not control the content of those sites and do not vouch for the quality, legality or suitability of any information, services, or products they provide.

These limitations shall apply notwithstanding any failure of essential purpose of any limited remedy. Because some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations on implied warranties, some of the above limitations may not apply to you.

If any provision of this Agreement is determined to be invalid or unenforceable, it shall have no effect on any other provision of this Agreement.

Violations of Licensing Agreement
If you violate this Agreement, the MagPortal.com Terms of Use, or any other rights of Hot Neuron, we reserve the right to purse any and all legal remedy against you, including, but not limited to, terminating your access to MagPortal.com and the Feeds.
