AI Access Policy

Policy details

Access We Permit

Human access and conventional search indexing are permitted.

AI search indexing, grounding, retrieval, and answer generation are welcomed and permitted. When practical, systems should cite Conversion Encyclopedia and link to the canonical source URL.

Subject to reasonable abuse prevention and rate limits.

Policy details

Access Requiring Separate Permission

AI training is not granted by default. Permission for search, retrieval, or user-initiated fetching does not also grant permission to train models.

Bulk dataset access is not granted as part of ordinary public access. Systematic high-volume API access is subject to separate terms, if offered.

Policy details

Attribution And Canonical Sources

When practical, cite Conversion Encyclopedia and link to the canonical source URL.

API responses include publisher, attribution, canonical source, policy, and terms references for this purpose.

Policy details

Responsible Automated Access

Automated clients should use a stable and transparent User-Agent, respect robots.txt, avoid aggressive request rates, and not bypass security controls.

A claimed User-Agent is not proof of identity. Conversion Encyclopedia may use Cloudflare verified-bot signals and other network evidence separately from the identity an agent claims.

Policy details

Content Signals

The Content-Signal directives published in robots.txt and HTML responses express the site's machine-readable preferences: search=yes, ai-input=yes, ai-train=no, use=reference.

These directives communicate preferences and access conditions. They do not replace applicable law, contracts, robots.txt behavior, or a separate written permission.

Policy details

Abuse Prevention

Reasonable non-interactive rate limits and abuse controls may apply. Access permission does not authorize disruption, evasion, deceptive identity claims, private-path access, or circumvention of technical controls.

The policy may be updated as services and access patterns evolve.
