Update frequency & delivery

  • Sources: government open-data registries only (US city license portals, UK FHRS) — the self-serve packs contain zero OSM/ODbL records.
  • An ODbL edition (OSM-merged) exists for approved buyers — request access.
  • Every package ships with a MANIFEST (row counts, bytes, sha256).

Compliance & provenance

Collected only from publicly accessible pages and endpoints — no login-required data, no CAPTCHA solving, no forged authentication. Collection is rate-limited with an identified User-Agent, and collection logs are retained. PII is removed or pseudonymized. Every record carries its source URL and collection timestamp. Sold under a tiered commercial license.
