Terms of Service ImageStamper (referred to as "the site") is a free online tool designed to keep dated copies of license conditions associated with creative commons images (referred to as "the service"). On this site, such copies are referred to as "timestamps", and the act of generating such timestamps is referred to as "timestamping". A timestamp of an image consists of a copy of its internet address (URL), a copy of the image itself and of the associated web page content and the date and time when the timestamp was generated. A timestamp is accessible through the ImageStamper account (referred to as "the account") of the user who requested the timestamp to be created. ImageStamper extracts the above information independently from users, therefore the timestamp of an image is intended to be used as evidence of the image's license conditions at the time of the timestamp's creation. By accessing ImageStamper or using the services offered by ImageStamper you agree to the Terms of Service described herein (referred to as "terms"). If you do not agree to these terms or to our privacy policy (available here), please do not access the site or use the services. ImageStamper reserves the right to change these terms at any time. We recommend that you periodically check this site for changes. 1.

ImageStamper and its owners expressly state that they do not claim anywhere on the site that witnessing and storing content with ImageStamper by means of a timestamp provides the same legal value as witnessing and signing the same content by a traditional lawyer or notary. ImageStamper and its owners make no claim about the legal value of the service, and it is up to you to evaluate how it meets your needs. 3. Intellectual Property (Trademarks & Copyrights) ImageStamper retains copies of images you request to be timestamped as evidence of image content.

Other When you request ImageStamper to timestamp an image, ImageStamper acts as a witness of the image content and the image's license. As such, ImageStamper gathers information about the image upon your request, but does so from a location and in a manner that are independent from you. ImageStamper shall not provide a facility for you to modify such information. ImageStamper and you are independent entities, and nothing in the terms, the privacy policy (available here) or via use of the site or services, will create any partnership, joint venture, agency, franchise, sales representative, or employment relationship between ImageStamper and you. These terms supersede any previous agreement and represent the entire agreement between ImageStamper and you. ImageStamper is based in London, England.
