authority to act on your behalf has agreed to these terms and to be
responsible for ensuring your compliance with them in your use of
the service and any results you obtain from it. If you don't want to
be bound by these terms, do not use the service or its results. If
our monitoring systems detect an attempt to access the service in a
forbidden way, to execute systematic patterns of queries, to index
the website, or to do anything else that we feel jeopardizes the
integrity of our system or access to it by other users, we may
terminate or suspend access to the service for specific users or IP
ranges. Systematic professional or commercial use of the website,
or use for which you are being specifically paid, is only permitted
for the specific purpose of purchasing the goods available on the

queries in an attempt to extract datasets, to reverse engineer the
algorithms or data contained in the PFO website, or to probe for
vulnerabilities.
Spidering, data-mining, scraping, or probing PFO, or otherwise
attempting to abuse the service, is not only a violation of these
terms but may also constitute violation of federal and state laws
concerning unauthorized access to computer systems. You are
