Introduction

Welcome to Digitizing Kerala’s Past (DKP) – a KCHR project that envisages the collection and creation of a digital repository of various sources related to archaeology, anthropology and history, lying scattered across the state and outside it as texts, images, monuments, artifacts, oral traditions, myths, experiences and memories.

By using the Services by viewing or displaying or publishing any text, files, images, music, photos, video, sounds or any other work to this site or using any other feature provided by our Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service and obey any law applicable.

The current version of the Terms of Service is always available http://www.dkp.kchr.ac.in/index.php?title=KCHR:Terms_of_Service. When new Terms are published they apply immediately to all unregistered users of the Services. Registered users will be presented with the changes, and the option of accepting the new Terms, or cancelling their account, at their next authenticated visit to the Services. If you are a registered user and you choose to continue to use the Services, you agree to be bound by the new Terms.

Content and Use

By using the KCHR Services you warrant that all the registration (and profile) information you submit is accurate and you will maintain the accuracy of such information and your use of Services does not violate any applicable law or regulation.

The KCHR may delete content that violates the Terms. We however assume no responsibility for monitoring any of the inappropriate content nor review any content before it is posted.

You as a Digitizing Kerala’s Past (DKP) user are solely responsible for the content you post through any of the Services and any information or materials you transmit directly to other Users.
