Important Notice
VK Finder does NOT host any content. We are a search facilitation tool that formats queries for Google's search engine. We do not store, upload, or distribute any copyrighted material.
All content found through our Service is hosted by third parties (primarily VK.com). Copyright infringement claims should be directed to the content host.
1. Our Role as a Search Tool
VK Finder operates similarly to a search engine. We help users discover content that is already publicly available on the internet. Our Service:
- Formats search queries to target specific domains
- Redirects users to Google's search results
- Does not store or cache any content
- Does not upload or distribute any files
- Operates entirely within users' web browsers
2. DMCA Compliance
Despite not hosting content, we comply with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) and similar international copyright laws. We will respond to valid DMCA notices regarding our website content or service.
