Terms of service

This is a contract between you and the sponsor of BibloGraph.net: OCLC Inc (referred to in this agreement as the "Sponsors", "we" or "us"). By using the BiblioGraph.net.org website (the "Website") you agree to be bound by the following terms and conditions (the "Terms of Service").

Scope of Terms of Services: License

These Terms of Service govern your use of the Website, which contains a schema specifying a vocabulary you can use in a web document ("the Schema"). The Sponsor's copyrights in these schemas are licensed to website publishers and other third parties under the Creative Commons Attribution License (version 3.0). To view a copy of this license, please visit http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/. In addition, if the Sponsors have patent claims that are necessarily infringed by including markup of structured data in a webpage, where the markup is based on and strictly complies with the Schema, they grant an option to receive a license under reasonable and non-discriminatory terms without royalty, solely for the purpose of including markup of structured data in a webpage, where the markup is based on and strictly complies with the Schema. The license may be conditioned on reciprocity, defensive termination, defensive suspension, and/or other reasonable terms. In some cases, this website may indicate that some but not all of the Sponsors have recognized a particular extension to the Schema; in those cases, as to that extension, the above rights are granted by only those recognizing Sponsors.

Scope of Terms of Services: Schema.org

BibloGraph.net schema is designed to work in conjunction with, and therefore make reference to schema defined by Schema.org. As such the sponsors recognise and acknowledge the Schema.org terms and conditions. The sponsors draw users attention to those terms and conditions as users of any Schema.org terms are still bound by them.

Changes in Website and Terms and Conditions; Change in Schema

We may modify or terminate the Website, for any reason, and without notice. We also reserve the right to modify these Terms of Service from time to time without notice, and you expressly agree to be bound by such modifications when posted on the Website. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Sponsors agree that no change that we make to these Terms of Service will terminate or modify the license granted under paragraph 1 above with respect to any use or implementation of the Schema occurring prior to the date that the change is published. Please review these Terms of Service from time to time so that you will be apprised of any changes. The Sponsors reserve the right, at any time, with or without notice to you, to make changes to the Schema, including, without limitation, to make changes that result in your existing Schema content becoming non-compliant with the revised Schema. The Sponsors shall have no liability to you for any such changes. Each of the Sponsors reserves the right to use, or not use, the Schema in whole or in part, on any or all of its products or services, and no Sponsor shall obligated to index, read or otherwise make use of any Schema content published by you. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each of the Sponsors reserves the right at any time to discontinue use of the Schema on any or all of its products or services.
