Welcome and Consent to Terms<br/></h3> <p> ORCID, Inc. (referred to as “ORCID”, “us” “our” and “we”) is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization that operates certain websites at the orcid.org URL ("Websites") and an open access registry of researcher identifiers (an “ORCID iD”) and related data (the “Registry”). These Terms of Service describe conditions under which ORCID allows the public to obtain and use credentials (“Credential”) for accessing our Public Client Application, which is an API enabled by a special alphanumeric token that grants specific access permissions to a specific ORCID Record and to search the ORCID Registry. </p> <p> Public Client Applications are granted to individuals and not organizations, and your Public Client is personal to you (even if you are using it in connection with your work for an organization). Only an individual with an ORCID iD may obtain a Public Client. If you do not have an ORCID iD and would like to obtain one, you can do so at <a href="http://web.archive.org/web/20161119013434/https://orcid.org/register">https://orcid.org/register</a>. </p> <p> These Terms of Service, which include the linked <a href="http://web.archive.org/web/20161119013434/http://orcid.org/privacy-policy">Privacy Policy</a> and <a href="http://web.archive.org/web/20161119013434/http://orcid.org/orcid-dispute-procedures">Dispute Procedures</a>, create a binding agreement between you and us. If you do not agree to these Terms of Service, the Privacy Policy and Dispute Procedures, please refrain from using the Public Client. Note that these Terms of Service only apply to use of the API and the Public Client; any other use you make of our Websites and Registry will be governed by ORCID’s <a href="http://web.archive.org/web/20161119013434/http://orcid.org/legal">Terms and Conditions of Use</a>. </p> <h3> 2. Your Right to Use the Public Client<br/></h3> <p> We grant you a limited license to make non-commercial use of the Public Client to request permission from an ORCID iD holder to receive an authenticated ORCID iD, to read public information from an ORCID record, and to search public data on the ORCID Registry. By “non-commercial” we mean that you may not charge any re-use fees for the Public Client, including making the Public Client part of any bundled service for which you charge fees or otherwise use the Public Client as part of any fee-based service. </p> <p> In addition, we grant you a limited license to use any Registry data marked “public” subject to these Terms of Service. This license does not extend to materials linked to ORCID iD records, such as full text articles or datasets. </p> <p> ORCID reserves the right to throttle or otherwise limit the free use of the Public Client or require membership and associated fees for extensive or extended use, in its sole discretion; provided, however, that ORCID will provide you with advance notice (to the email address provided when you register for use of the Public Client) of any fees, and no fees shall be applied retroactively without your affirmative consent. </p> <p> All rights not explicitly granted herein are reserved by ORCID. </p> <p> ORCID reserves the right to terminate your use at any time. </p> <h3> 3. Limitations on Use<br/></h3> <p> ORCID is a community-based initiative developed by and for the research community. Any unauthorized use of the Public Client or other breach of these Terms of Service shall automatically terminate the license granted to you by ORCID. In addition, because the Public Client is a free service, ORCID reserves the right to terminate access for any user in ORCID’s sole discretion. To help us ensure that ORCID is a useful and respected community resource, the following are explicitly prohibited in connection with the Public Client: </p> <ul><li> You may not use the Public Client to perpetually poll the ORCID Websites. </li> <li> An individual may only have one Public Client. You may not obtain more than one ORCID iD for the purpose of obtaining multiple Public Clients. </li> <li> You may not share your Public Client or transfer your Public Client credentials to another individual. (If an individual leaves an organization, a new individual at the organization must register for a new Public Client for the organization to continue to access the Public Client benefits). </li> <li> You may not use any data obtained from the Registry in a manner that is false or misleading. </li> <li> You may not use email or physical addresses obtained from ORCID records to send junk mail, spam, chain letters, pyramid schemes or similar communications, and you may not send marketing or other commercial communications, unless you give the person the right to opt-out of such communications. </li> <li> You may not use the Public Client for any unlawful, illegal (in the United States and any jurisdiction in which you are located), or injurious purpose. </li> <li> You may not use the Public Client in any way that damages, disables, overburdens or impairs the operation of the Websites or Registry.

You may not export the Public Client to any countries that are subject to the export control restrictions of the United States. </li> <li> You may not use the ORCID name in any way to suggest ORCID’s affiliation or endorsement of any individual, organization, product, or service without the prior written consent of ORCID. </li> </ul><h3> 4.
