How do you ensure you are compliant?
We take extensive steps to always ensure we have permission to collect data to avoid legal risks. To stay compliant, we conduct the following:
1. Check website policies and terms of service (ToS) and abide by the rules defined by site owners, for an ethical approach to web scraping.
2. Avoid collecting personal data or violating ToS
3. Avoid scraping secured information (e.g., usernames, passwords) and sites that require authentication
4. Only collect data that is publicly available information
5. Respect the target site’s robots.txt file
6. We observe all applicable data-related regulations (GDPR, CCPA)
