I would like to develop a web application that works in the following way: The user finds links to multiple resources. The link is not actually stored in the site, but is built by dinamically querying Google for a specific set of terms. By clicking the link a query is passed to the Search API and the first result found is then used to redirect the user.
For example the page features the following: Find Item 1 on Site X Find Item 2 on Site Y Find Item 3 on Site Z Each link triggers a different query that is associated with it. Once the api feeds the results the first result of the set is used to redirect the user to specified page. My worries are the following: 1) Search Results manipulation is prohibited by the TOS at chapter 1.4 (b). In this case the results are not manipulated nor obscured but in fact hidden from the user. 2) The users does not explicitly press a "SEARCH" button nor does he manually input the search terms. It is unclear if this is a requirement in the TOS or not. 3) The query's will be very similar to one another and this may trigger the "automated querys" block. I would be grateful if you could share your opinion on this or direct me to the correct person able to respond to these questions.
