REQUEST FOR REMOVAL OF LINKS OR CACHED MATERIALS
Imaginestics occasionally receives requests from people to remove links from its
VizSeek indices. Although Imaginestics reserves the right to address such requests
individually, the general approach that Imaginestics takes reflects the following
principles:
VizSeek's indices consist of information that has been identified, indexed and compiled
through both Suppliers uploading their information in their respective Supplier
Center and an automated process with no advance review by human beings. Given the
enormous volume of web site information added, deleted, and changed on a frequent
basis, Imaginestics cannot and does not screen anything made available through its
indices. For each web site reflected in VizSeek's indices, if either (i) a site
owner restricts access to his or her web site or (ii) a site is taken down from
the web, then, upon receipt of a request by the site owner or a third party in the
second instance, Imaginestics would consider on a case-by-case basis requests to
remove the link to that site from its indices. However, if the operator of the site
does not take steps to prevent it, the automatic facilities used to create the indices
are likely to find that site and index it again in a relatively short amount of
time.
VizSeek stores many web pages in its cache to retrieve for users as a back-up in
case the page's server temporarily fails. Site owners may block VizSeek from returning
cached versions of their pages by using the NOARCHIVE meta-tag. Site owners may
also request immediate removal of cached page from the VizSeek Search Service. Imaginestics
evaluates such requests for the immediate removal of cached content on a case-by-case
basis and does not guarantee that every request will be granted. The steps necessary
to remove cached pages, and to prevent a site from being cached and/or included
in the indices, please contact us.
INDEMNITY
You agree, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to indemnify, defend and hold
harmless IMAGINESTICS PARTIES from and against any claims, liability, losses, costs
and expenses (including but not limited to reasonable attorneys' fees) incurred
by any IMAGINESTICS PARTY in connection with any use or alleged use of this website
under your password by any person, whether or not authorized by you, or any other
violation of these Terms of Use by you. IMAGINESTICS, LLC reserves the right to
assume the exclusive defense and control, at its own expense, of any matter otherwise
subject to indemnification by you. In such case, you agree to cooperate with IMAGINESTICS,
LLC's defense of such claim.
