## Online Search Policy Agreement
|
|
|
|
The search functionality provided by No Moss 3 Carbo Landfill Online Library, operated by David Allen Ball
|
|
("David A. Ball"), is intended to enhance user experience by enabling the retrieval of information contained
|
|
within documents stored on the website. This Search Policy ("Policy") outlines some of the understood
|
|
functions of the search feature as well as some limitations of the service. This Policy may not cover all of
|
|
the limitations of the search feature.
|
|
|
|
### Optical Character Recognition (OCR)
|
|
|
|
Sourced mostly from the public domain, this service utilizes Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technology
|
|
to extract text from images embedded in PDF files. This website relies heavily upon Apache Tika, PDFKit, and
|
|
Tesseract in order to perform this function.
|
|
|
|
While some initial effort is made to ensure the accuracy and completeness of the OCR process, it is important
|
|
to note that OCR results may not always be error-free. Inaccuracies may occur due to various factors, including
|
|
but not limited to, the quality of the original document, variations in font styles, image resolution, image tilt,
|
|
skew, image visibility, color, etc.
|
|
|
|
In some cases, I may choose to correct any anomalies discovered during the OCR process and index the changes
|
|
based on these corrections. I can not guarantee the completeness of any metadata, even if partially corrected.
|
|
|
|
### YouTube Auto-Generated Subtitles
|
|
|
|
Relying heavily upon YouTube's automatic subtitles feature, this service utilizes `youtube-dl` in order to
|
|
copy YouTube videos along with any subtitles and generated automatic subtitles.
|
|
|
|
The publisher of the subtitles or the YouTube generator of the automatic subtitles is responsible for that
|
|
content.
|
|
|
|
### No Guarantee or Warranty
|
|
|
|
No Moss 3 Carbo Landfill Online Library does not provide any guarantee or warranty regarding the accuracy,
|
|
reliability, or suitability of the OCR results obtained through the search functionality. Users acknowledge and
|
|
accept that the accuracy of OCR-generated text may vary and should exercise discretion when relying on search results.
|
|
|
|
### User Responsibility
|
|
|
|
Users are solely responsible for verifying the accuracy and relevance of the information retrieved through the
|
|
search functionality. It is recommended to cross-reference OCR-generated text with the original source documents
|
|
whenever possible.
|
|
|
|
### Limitation of Liability
|
|
|
|
In no event shall No Moss 3 Carbo Landfill Online Library or its affiliates be liable for any damages, losses,
|
|
or liabilities arising from the use of the search functionality or reliance on OCR-generated text, including but
|
|
not limited to, indirect, incidental, or consequential damages.

|
|
|
