Frequently Asked Questions

How long does approval take?
Guest access is instant. Researcher and Institution clearances are typically verified within 24-48 hours by our archival team.
Can I download original source code?
Yes. Researcher and Institution tiers can extract raw HTML, CSS, and historical assets exactly as they were served in the 1990s.
Is paywalled content archived?
We archive publicly accessible pages from the 1990-1999 era. Modern paywalls are not in scope, but we preserve early commercial portals.
How is my data secured?
All credentials are hashed and encrypted. We never sell research patterns or export logs. Privacy is foundational to digital preservation.
