Acceptable use policy<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

This guide helps you understand how to use our data and analytics tools responsibly and in accordance with the terms that your organization has agreed with us. It sets out rights and restrictions that are correct for most users.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n
\n

Your organization may have a special arrangement that gives you different or additional rights, so if you\u2019re ever unsure about what you are and are not allowed to do, your internal data subscription manager is the best person to ask.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What you can do<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As a licensed user, here\u2019s what you\u2019re usually allowed to do:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Use the product for your licensed tasks. <\/strong>You can use the product for the specific purposes your organization agreed with us \u2014for example, \u201cmarket analysis\u201d or \u201ccompetitor research\u201d. These are often called your \u201cUse Case\u201d or \u201cPermitted Use\u201d in the contract your organization has with us.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Share with other licensed users.<\/strong> You can share data with colleagues who are licensed for the same product and content set (but not with colleagues who do not have a license, or who have a license for different data).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Use small amounts of data in normal office tools.<\/strong> You can use tools like Excel, Word, or PowerPoint to work with small amounts of data.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Print and store for your own work use. <\/strong>You can print small sections of data for your own use within the limits of the license, and store small amounts for your own normal, day-to-day use. However, you should not, for example, include data in company-wide newsletters, customer updates, or marketing materials.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    What you can\u2019t do<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    To keep things fair and within the limits of your organization\u2019s license, there are a few things that are generally not allowed:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • Don\u2019t share data outside your organization.<\/strong> This includes customers, suppliers, websites, or any third-party tools (especially generative AI tools).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Don\u2019t share with unlicensed colleagues.<\/strong> Only licensed users can view the data. You should avoid sharing data with colleagues who don\u2019t have the same license as you do.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Don\u2019t build your own data library. <\/strong>Avoid storing large amounts of data and don\u2019t create your own database or archive.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Don\u2019t keep data beyond the end of your license.<\/strong> Since your organization has a license, your organization doesn\u2019t own the data. Please delete data when your access ends.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Don\u2019t scrape or automate data extraction. <\/strong>Using bots or scripts to pull data from the product isn\u2019t allowed.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Don\u2019t use generative AI tools with our data. <\/strong>Whether internal or external, generative AI tools should not be fed our data.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Don\u2019t share your login or misuse the product. <\/strong>Keep your password private. Don\u2019t use the product for anything illegal, harmful, or unrelated to your work.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Don\u2019t upload personal data<\/strong>: Only enter login details, no personal information.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      Need to do something that\u2019s not listed here? Your organization might already have the rights\u2014or can request them. Just check with your data subscription manager.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Final notes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      This policy is here to help you understand how you\u2019re usually allowed to use our data. It\u2019s not a legal contract, and if there\u2019s ever a conflict between this and your organization\u2019s contract, the contract takes priority. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      If you have any questions, please contact your account manager.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
