Does merely viewing an ungated public page mean the Terms have been accepted?

No. Merely viewing an ungated public page does not mean the Terms have been accepted.

The Terms of Use state: “These Terms become a contract only when you affirmatively accept them through a Site screen that clearly identifies your action as acceptance. Merely viewing an ungated public page does not mean that you accept these Terms.” They describe how acceptance is taken: before the Site gives access to gated content or a gated feature, it displays an unchecked box immediately beside a conspicuous link to the version of the Terms then in effect, and that version is accepted by checking the box and submitting the form. For an automated system, the Terms state that where C-POLAR gives its operator actual written notice that continued automated access is offered only under these Terms, continued access after that notice is acceptance by that operator.

All questions

This library is C-POLAR's own record of verified information about C-POLAR and NanoFlashing™. Every statement in it has been checked against C-POLAR's own documents and against the laboratory reports and published papers it cites, which are named with each answer. Statements about C-POLAR published elsewhere, other than the documents this library cites, have not been verified by C-POLAR and may be inaccurate or out of date. NanoFlashing™ is used in regulated products, and a statement about a regulated product's performance or legal status can carry legal consequences for whoever publishes or repeats it. Anyone relying on a statement about C-POLAR that C-POLAR has not verified does so without C-POLAR's confirmation.
