`The Internet Archive's Policy for Responding to
`Information Requests
`
`The following sets forth the Internet Archive's policy with regard to requests for documents or other
`records for use in legal proceedings. Please also read our frequently asked questions in their entirety
`for additional information.
`
`The Internet Archive is a nonprofit organization dedicated to archiving the Internet and other digital
`materials, and providing public access to these records. We are not in the business of responding to
`requests for affidavits, or authenticating pages or other information from the Wayback Machine; this is
`why we make our collections available at no cost via our Web site, http://www.archive.org. As a
`nonprofit, our resources are limited, and these kinds of requests are a significant drain on our time and
`funds. Please remember that an affidavit from the Internet Archive may not be necessary.
`
`Before asking the Internet Archive to authenticate your documents, we ask that you please seek judicial
`notice or simply ask your opposing party to stipulate to the documents' authenticity. Of course, the best
`source of such information is the party who posted the information on the URLs at issue, and the
`second-best source of such information is someone who actually accessed the historical versions of the
`URLs.
`
`However, if you are determined to obtain an affidavit authenticating printouts from the Internet Archive's
`Wayback Machine, we will do our best to help you in accordance with this policy.
`
`To initiate your request, you must send us payment as described below and an electronic list of the
`extended URLs for each page you would like us to print out. By extended URL, we are referring to the
`full URL that appears in the Address field of your Web browser when you are looking at the page in
`question (e.g., http://web.archive.org/web/19970126045828/http://www.archive.org/). If you want more
`than one page from a particular domain, you must supply the extended URL for each page. Due to the
`undue burden on our limited resources, we cannot respond to requests for all linked pages at some
`particular domain. The list of extended URLs should be emailed to info at archive dot org. Please
`include your contact information in your email.
`
`Our standard fee is $250 per request, plus $20 for each extended URL therein, excepting URLs that
`contain downloadable/printable files. Any such URLs (for example, .pdf, .doc, or .zip files) instead cost
`$30 per extended URL. The Internet Archive does not automatically notarize the affidavit. If you would
`like your affidavit notarized there is an additional $100 fee.

`
`We can only accept payment by check, which should be payable to the Internet Archive, or by means of
`PayPal (please send payment to info@archive.org via paypal.com, DO NOT SEND PAYMENT VIA
`OUR DONATION PAGE). If using PayPal, it is important to include a note with the transaction
`indicating that payment is for an "affidavit request". Please note that you must pay us up front; we will
`not begin working on your request until payment in full is received as well as all of the paper and digital
`request. Both are needed to have us start on your request. This policy is necessary because a number
`of requestors have not paid the Internet Archive after receiving our responses. The Internet Archive's
`mailing/shipping address is:
`
`Internet Archive
`300 Funston Avenue
`San Francisco, CA 94118
`
`When you submit payment, please make sure that the Internet Archive can readily identify the request
`to which your payment relates. For example, if you send a check, include a copy of your request in the
`envelope with the check. If you send payment via PayPal, email info at archive dot org immediately
`after sending payment letting the Internet Archive know that you just sent payment and identifying your
`request.
`
`The Internet Archive will provide printed pages and a standard affidavit of authenticity. We strive to
`have reasonable requests completed for shipping within fifteen business days from receipt of payment,
`but do not make any guarantees regarding turn-around time. Requests for especially large numbers of
`URLs may take longer or we may contact you and ask that you limit your request. Errors contained in
`your request will also delay the process. Please be patient so we can fix these errors for you.
`
`If you would like us to send you the documents and affidavit by FedEx, please provide us with a FedEx
`account number. If we do not receive a FedEx number, we will send the documents by regular mail. We
`do not fax results.
`
`Unless otherwise specified, all requests will be printed using the Firefox browser. If you would rather
`have the results printed from Internet Explorer or Safari browsers, please make that clear in the
`request.
`
`Our policy is to respond to reasonable requests within these parameters. We reserve the right to refuse
`any request that we deem to be unreasonable, and may require you to reimburse other costs we incur
`as a result of your request.
`
`Thank you for your cooperation.
