Schedule 1 (Acceptable Use Policy)
1. Introduction
1.1 This acceptable use policy (the "Policy") sets out the rules governing:
(a) the use of our services on the website you specified during account set up or any successor website, (the "Services"); and
(b) the transmission, storage and processing of our content by you, or by any person on your behalf, using the Services ("Our Content"). Our content consists of lexical information such as, but not limited to, headwords, translations, definitions, sample sentences and pronunciation information. Note that our content has been published under licence by third parties and may also be subject to additional terms and conditions published on their websites. All data we provide has a hyperlink to the source where you can see the licence under which it was published and any requirements for re-use or redistribution.
(c) the transmission, storage and processing of your content by us, or by any person on our behalf, using the Services ("Customer Content"). Your content consists of words from your website sent to our servers as an API call to request lexical information about those words.
1.2 References in this Policy to "you" are to any customer for the Services and any individual user of the Services (and "your" should be construed accordingly); and references in this Policy to "us" are to Woodpecker Learning Limited (and "we" and "our" should be construed accordingly).
1.3 By using the Services, you agree to the rules set out in this Policy.
1.4 We will ask for your express agreement to the terms of this Policy before you or your website users upload or submit any Customer Content or otherwise use the Services.
1.5 You must be at least 18 years of age to enter into this agreement; and by using the Services on your website, you warrant and represent to us that you are at least 18 years of age.
2. General usage rules
2.1 We don’t want our Service to be used on any website that offers other dictionary services, is an aggregator of dictionary services or primarily serves to offer dictionary services. The reason for this is that we are concerned about the behaviour of the users on websites like that and their impact on our API. If you think your website is in this category, please email us the link to your website and we will confirm the terms on which we are willing to offer you our service.
2.2 Our Service is not designed to be used as a look-up service for words other than those already on your website. You can’t build a box for users to type-in words and get definitions. You also can’t use any automated service to look for definitions. Our plugin and related API service is designed to enable individual users to more efficiently browse content by clicking or touching on words for which they want additional lexical information. If you use our Service or allow others to use our Service in ways other than this, we may suspend or stop providing our Services to you. We will also suspend our Services if we are investigating suspected misconduct.
