Terms of Service

BioPlayground publishes bioscience knowledge so it can be read and used widely. Public availability does not grant permission for unlimited copying or automated collection that burdens the service.

Effective: September 21, 2026Copyright & Content Use

Uses we welcome

  • Personal reading and study
  • Sharing ordinary links
  • Reasonable quotation with attribution
  • Normal search indexing that follows site instructions and rate limits

! Uses requiring permission

  • Republishing or mirroring all or a substantial part
  • Commercial resale or redistribution
  • Repeated or systematic bulk extraction
  • Copying into or redistributing training datasets, vector databases, or RAG corpora

1. Scope and acceptance

These terms apply to the BioPlayground website and its public content, tools, and community features. By using the service, you agree to follow these terms and any additional conditions shown on a specific feature.

2. Public content

Unless a separate license is shown, articles, editorial compilations, figures, explanations, code, and database arrangements may be protected by BioPlayground or another rights holder.

Nothing in these terms narrows quotation, fair use, or other exceptions provided by applicable law. We do not claim ownership of facts, ideas, or scientific principles themselves.

3. Automated access

Ordinary search indexing and access at a reasonable rate are welcome. We may restrict automation that threatens service stability or normal use.

  • Circumventing robots instructions, technical controls, or rate limits
  • Distributing one collection job across IPs, accounts, or sessions to evade limits
  • Reading or storing all or a substantial part of the site in a short period
  • Removing attribution or falsely implying that BioPlayground endorsed a redistribution

4. AI and dataset use

Prior written permission is required to reproduce or incorporate protected expression or all or a substantial part of a database into model training, fine-tuning, evaluation datasets, vector databases, RAG corpora, or derivative data products.

This does not restrict uses independently permitted by law or by an open license displayed on particular content.

5. Community and third-party material

Users generally retain rights in their posts and allow BioPlayground to process them as needed to operate, display, and back up the service.

External papers, images, data, marks, and links remain subject to their original terms. BioPlayground cannot grant rights it does not hold.

6. Scientific and medical notice

Content and tools are for education and information. They do not replace medical diagnosis, treatment instructions, legal advice, or other professional advice. Check primary sources and qualified professionals for important decisions.

7. Proportionate protection and changes

Where abuse, a security threat, or service disruption is reasonably suspected, we may apply proportionate measures such as rate limits, verification, or temporary restrictions. Material changes will be posted here with an effective date.

8. Permission requests

For bulk use, translation, course-pack inclusion, partnerships, or redistribution, contact us through the site’s official channel and describe the purpose, scope, duration, and attribution.

This is a general service policy and does not limit rights guaranteed by applicable law.

Reading, linking, and lawful quotation stay open; high-speed bulk collection and unauthorized redistribution do not.

Unless stated otherwise, content rights belong to BioPlayground or the relevant rights holder.
