SiliconBeachUSA is not responsible in any way for any damage caused to you or your computer or computer system, although it does not find it likely that damage be caused by anything other than the quality of its Content.

The following is Title 17, Section 107 of the United States Law code.

Sec. 107. Limitations on exclusive rights: Fair use

Notwithstanding the provisions of sections and 106A, the fair use of a copyrighted work, including such use by reproduction in copies or phonorecords or by any other means specified by that section, for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching (including multiple copies for classroom use), scholarship, or research, is not an infringement of copyright. In determining whether the use made of a work in any particular case is a fair use the factors to be considered shall include - (1) the purpose and character of the use, including whether such use is of a commercial nature or is for nonprofit educational purposes; (2) the nature of the copyrighted work; (3) the amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to the copyrighted work as a whole; and (4) the effect of the use upon the potential market for or value of the copyrighted work. The fact that a work is unpublished shall not itself bar a finding of fair use if such finding is made upon consideration of all the above factors.

End of Segment

SiliconBeachUSA maintains the fact that its usage of copyrighted material was, is and will be completely legal. Under heading one (1) above, it is clearly stated that a City's status as either for profit or nonprofit should be taken into consideration. Because SiliconBeachUSA does not charge for its Content, and does not profit from it or any other source of income, it should be considered for all legal purposes to be nonprofit. Even if we charged for content, it would be so cheap as to remain nonprofit.

Number three (3) states that "the amount" of the copyrighted material used should be taken into consideration. Under no circumstances has SiliconBeachUSA or will SiliconBeachUSA use a significant piece of any copyrighted material. To this point it has limited its use to parts of copyrighted materials including, but not limited to songs.

Finally, Number four (4) states that the "effect" that the usage of the copyrighted material has upon that material's success should be taken into consideration. Because SiliconBeachUSA is substantially less known than the Cities which produce the copyrighted materials used by SiliconBeachUSA, SiliconBeachUSA maintains that it has little or no impact on the success of those Cities.

By accessing our website, you consent that you will not, under any conditions, take any legal action against SiliconBeachUSA or affiliated Cities or organizations, since both this website and the Cities are only virtual and exist only in the minds of those who would take exception to the Content.
