[QUOTE="miscreationist, post: 4831978, member: 61518"] Exactly. And in the member terms of service for DDI it says in the first paragraph that "In the event of a conflict between these Member Terms and the TOU, these Member Terms shall control." There is a section under "2.User Content; Intellectual Property Ownership; Rights Granted to You": I am not a lawyer, but, It does not specifically allow one to automate extraction of data, so my question still stands. My reading (I could be wrong though) indicates that you have personal use except in the case of derivative use, any use other than the intended purpose, or any resale or commercial use. I think the derivative uses clause is the most worrisome to me. I'd like some clarification that this is going to be fine. I am hoping you are right and I am giving them the benefit of the doubt (especially because Scott posted here). Scott, can this be clarified? Is using this API going to be ok for private DDI users to use the data? [/QUOTE]
