IndianCounter Policy ::
INFORMATION COLLECTION AND PRIVACY POLICY.
This information collection and privacy policy shows how we get information from http://www.IndianCounter.com
site (the "Site") and controls the information you give us. The policy doesn’t control the entries or
edits you submit to the Site. That information is dealt with singly at this link Terms and Conditions
of Use. Any changed and revised information collection and privacy policy shall come into force right
after posting on the Site.
In case of questions or concerns concerning this statement, users can contact IndianCounter.com or send
mail to Website Administrator (see mail at the bottom of this page). We will try to respond to
every inquiry.
But the volume of inquiries we receive is very high so we may respond to your inquiry after a while.
IndianCounter obtains information concerning websites from the public "whois" databases which domain
name registries and registrars publish on the Internet. We also receive information concerning
websites from other public sources . Then we make that
information available, together with a link to the websites, screenshots, and logos one centralized
place of the Site. We also put a map that is some kind of a spatial representation of otherwise public
information. Everybody can build this map using free web
mapping applications available in the Internet. As we only make available from the Site information
which is publicly available, we may make available contact information for a website.
If you don’t wish our bot to collect information about your website just follow the instructions on
the ROBOT:Bot Sites.
Control of User Provided/Edited Posts:
Users of IndianCounter can freely edit entries. Here we don’t control the identity of any user
who provides information or make edits. An "Owner Contributed Information" feature will allow
you as the owner of a website to control the basic information about that website. In any case
you should know that we haven’t controlled information and you should control this information
yourself before relying on it.
IndianCounter Respects Intellectual Property Rights:
IndianCounter respects the intellectual property rights of third parties. It will never be involved
in measures which contain copyright or trademark violation. IndianCounter is meant for providing
free information concerning domain names and related websites. Here, you can find educational,
critical and accurate information about websites. We don’t publish texts or images from a site
with the purpose of their providing. We just make them available to provide information about
the site itself. We can’t precisely provide full information about a site without watching the
information from the site itself.
IndianCounter presents information which may not be entitled to copyright defense in the first
instance. Display of smaller thumbnail-size images and of public text falls under "fair use".
Copyright and trademark law include exclusions for "fair use". Fair use is a statutorily recognized
exception to copyright law. United States courts apply a four factor test to define whether a
use constitutes "fair use" under copyright law. According to this test, IndianCounter’s use
constitutes fair use. First of all, IndianCounter’s use of the information differs from the initial
expressive purpose of the information. IndianCounter has collected this information in a single
place with the aim of providing knowledge concerning domain names and websites, open for
editing by the user.
Secondly, IndianCounter doesn’t use the expressive value of text or images we make available.
We use the text and images in order to inform users about the domain names and website where
the complete text and full images may be found. Thirdly, the restricted or reduced use of
the texts and images is compatible with transformative purpose of IndianCounter. And finally,
IndianCounter doesn’t harm the market with the underlying data. Reproducing data about your
website we are simply raising potential exposure for your website. Thus IndianCounter’s use
of the information constitutes fair use after application of the fair use test. You can
watch additional information and discussion about IndianCounter’s position on fair use and
intellectual property policy at Intellectual Property Policy.
If you don’t want to include information from your site, please opt-out consistent with
the above instructions.
