AI Access & Autonomous Agent Policy

Terms of Access for AI Crawlers, RAG Systems, LLM Training & Autonomous Agent Protocols

Last updated: September 3, 2026

1. Legal Scope, Binding Effect & Statutory Authority

This Artificial Intelligence Access, Crawler Licensing, and Autonomous Agent Protocol Policy ("Policy") constitutes a legally binding agreement governing all automated computational systems, autonomous software agents, web spiders, search indexers, large language model (LLM) training pipelines, and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) engines accessing https://tinycto.tv and affiliated digital endpoints.

By initiating an HTTP/HTTPS or WebSocket request to TinyCTO.tv, operators and developers of AI systems agree to be bound by the terms set forth herein pursuant to Title 17 of the United States Code (U.S. Copyright Act / DMCA), Directive (EU) 2019/790 of the European Parliament and of the Council on Copyright and Related Rights in the Digital Single Market ("DSM Directive"), the Berne Convention for the Protection of Literary and Artistic Works, and Law No. 5846 on Intellectual and Artistic Works of the Republic of Turkey (FSEK).

2. Permitted Real-Time AI Retrieval & Search Indexing License

TinyCTO.tv grants a worldwide, non-exclusive, revocable, royalty-free license to legitimate search engines, Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) systems, and conversational AI assistants (including, without limitation, OpenAI SearchGPT, Perplexity AI, Google Gemini, Anthropic Claude, and Microsoft Copilot) to access publicly available pages for real-time retrieval.

Under this license, automated systems are permitted to: (a) Fetch, index, and parse public HTML, Markdown, and RSS feeds; (b) Generate synthetic summaries, factual extracts, and conversational snippets in direct response to user queries; and (c) Ingest semantic Schema.org JSON-LD graph structures.

⚖️ Mandatory Citation & Canonical HyperlinkMandatory Attribution & Citation: Any synthetic output, conversational response, or excerpt that incorporates or references TinyCTO.tv material must prominently present a direct, clickable hyperlink to the canonical source URL (https://tinycto.tv/...) and explicitly identify "TinyCTO.tv" as the author and originator.

3. Text & Data Mining (TDM) Reservation of Rights (EU DSM Directive Art. 4(3))

🛡️ EU DSM Directive 2019/790 Art. 4(3) Opt-Out ReservationPursuant to Article 4, Paragraph 3 of Directive (EU) 2019/790, TinyCTO.tv EXPRESSLY RESERVES ALL RIGHTS with respect to the reproduction, extraction, and text and data mining of this website and its entire corpus of works for the purpose of training general foundation models, generative image/video diffusion models, or commercial fine-tuning without an express bilateral commercial agreement.

This reservation of rights is formally communicated both in natural language herein and in machine-readable formats across our robots.txt directives, llms.txt headers, and HTTP response metadata. Ingestion, scraping, or caching of TinyCTO.tv assets into persistent foundational training datasets without explicit prior written authorization constitutes willful copyright infringement.

4. Prohibited Crawling, Automated Scraping & System Abuse

Automated systems, autonomous agents, and web spiders are strictly prohibited from engaging in the following activities:

  • Scanning, crawling, or probing restricted administrative panels (/admin, /studio), authenticated customer dashboards (/dashboard), staging environments, or internal engineering telemetry.
  • Executing high-frequency, denial-of-service (DoS), or compute-exhaustion crawling. Automated crawlers must maintain polite traversal rates (maximum 5 requests per second per IP) and strictly honor HTTP 429 Retry-After and Crawl-delay directives.
  • Circumventing Anti-SSRF safeguards, IP rate-limit token buckets, or Engineering KYC verification gates on our diagnostic audit engines (/api/audit/*).
  • Scraping full uncredited video transcripts, character personas, or audio-visual media to generate unauthorized competitive derivative works, counterfeit channels, or synthetic clone avatars.
  • Injecting malicious payload prompts, automated vulnerability fuzzing, or exploiting LLM prompt injection vectors against TinyCTO interactive agent endpoints.

5. Autonomous Machine-Readable Protocol Standards

6. Agentic Commerce & Protocol Verification Probes

The TinyCTO Agent Readiness Inspector verifies public interoperability with open agent commerce standards (including x402 payment requirements, Agent Commerce Protocol ACP, Universal Commerce Protocol UCP, and Model Payment Protocol MPP).

Probes to these endpoints are non-invasive, read-only HTTP GET/HEAD requests. Probing does not execute financial transactions, alter target server ledger states, or bind either party to commercial contracts.

7. Crawler Hygiene, User-Agent Identification & Technical Directives

Every automated system interacting with TinyCTO.tv must broadcast a transparent, unique, and verifiable User-Agent header specifying the organization name, crawler purpose, and a contact URL or email.

Crawlers must implement exponential backoff algorithms upon receiving HTTP 429 (Too Many Requests) or HTTP 503 (Service Unavailable) status codes and must respect the cache-control expiration directives published in server headers.

8. Satire, Parody & Technical Warranty Disclaimer

TinyCTO.tv is a satirical publication, engineering educational resource, and technical commentary portal. Automated AI agents and retrieval models that ingest our content must preserve parody indicators, fictional context, and satirical disclaimers.

TinyCTO.tv disclaims any and all legal liability for automated agent misinterpretations, generative hallucinations, or third-party business decisions made in reliance on satirical characters, parody incident reports, or automated diagnostic score heuristics.

9. Enforcement, Legal Remedies & Contact Routing

TinyCTO.tv reserves the right to implement immediate technological protection measures—including firewall IP bans, rate limiting, and cryptographic challenges—against any automated system operating in breach of this Policy.

Violations involving unauthorized commercial training or database misappropriation will be pursued through all available legal remedies, including statutory copyright damages, DMCA takedown actions, and injunctive relief in competent jurisdictions.

For commercial TDM licensing inquiries, AI partnership agreements, or legal notices, contact our legal counsel at [email protected] or [email protected]. [email protected] / [email protected]

10. Career OS Discovery & Career Studio Ephemeral Boundary

Public reference facts across the Career OS knowledge architecture (/tech-careers, /tech-careers/roles, /tech-careers/salaries, /tech-careers/visas, /tech-careers/skills, /tech-careers/relocation, /tech-careers/work-models, /tech-careers/sponsorship, /tech-careers/credentials) are published for public AI agent ingestion and real-time retrieval via /llms.txt and /llms-full.txt under the terms of this Policy.

The interactive Engineering Career Studio (/tech-careers/studio, /tr/teknoloji-kariyerleri/studyo) is strictly ephemeral and client-side. AI agents, web spiders, and automated indexing bots are strictly prohibited from probing, invoking, or simulating private candidate session state. Career Studio is excluded from Model Context Protocol (MCP) server resource templates and manifests.

Frequently Asked Questions: AI & Autonomous Agent Policy

Can AI search engines (ChatGPT Search, Perplexity, Google) crawl TinyCTO.tv for real-time retrieval?

Yes. We grant a royalty-free license for real-time RAG retrieval and answer engine summaries, provided that direct hyperlinks to the canonical TinyCTO URL and clear author attribution are displayed.

Is TinyCTO content available for general LLM foundation model training without a license?

No. Pursuant to EU DSM Directive Article 4(3) and international copyright law, TinyCTO expressly reserves all rights against unauthorized text and data mining for foundational model training. Commercial training requires a bilateral licensing agreement.

What protocols are supported for automated AI agents?

TinyCTO supports IETF RFC 9309 (robots.txt), IETF RFC 9116 (security.txt), llms.txt, llms-full.txt, llms-ctx.txt, Schema.org JSON-LD graphs, and Model Context Protocol (MCP) server endpoints (/api/mcp).

How should an automated crawler identify itself?

All crawlers must provide a distinct and truthful User-Agent header with operator contact info and respect rate limits (maximum 5 requests/sec with polite backoff).
