Data & Scraping Disclaimer

Data & Scraping Disclaimer

Szegi Roland Attila E.V. Effective Date: [EFFECTIVE DATE]

1. Where the data comes from

The contact information in our Lead Lists is compiled from publicly available business listings on Google Maps, gathered through third-party scraping tools (including Apify). The data is public business contact information that any internet user can view without logging in, paying, or bypassing any technical access control.

2. California is excluded

We do not knowingly compile, sell, or deliver Lead Lists containing businesses located in California, and the Service is not offered to California residents. California businesses are filtered out before any Lead List is delivered, and California is not a selectable target region at the ordering stage.

3. What we DO NOT do

  • We do not log into Google accounts to scrape.
  • We do not bypass CAPTCHAs, paywalls, login walls, IP blocks, or any technical access control to obtain data.
  • We do not collect consumer personal data, demographic data, behavioral data, financial data, health data, biometric data, or sensitive personal information.
  • We do not buy data from other data brokers.
  • We do not "enrich" Leads with private identifiers (no personal mobile numbers obtained from non-public sources, no SSNs, no household data).

4. Legal framework

Under U.S. case law, notably hiQ Labs, Inc. v. LinkedIn Corp. (9th Cir. 2019, reaffirmed April 18, 2022) and Van Buren v. United States (Sup. Ct. 2021), scraping publicly accessible web data is not a violation of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (18 U.S.C. § 1030). We treat public Google Maps business listings as falling within these public-data principles.

5. Acknowledgment that Google Maps ToS prohibits scraping

Google Maps Platform Terms of Service § 3.2.3 state that the customer will not export, extract, or otherwise scrape Google Maps content for use outside the services. This is a contractual restriction between Google and the scraper, not a U.S. or EU law. We use third-party tools that operate within their own published compliance frameworks; we make no representation that our data-collection complies with Google's private contractual terms, and the Buyer takes no rights or liabilities under Google's ToS from us.

6. Buyer's responsibility for downstream compliance

Just because data is public does not mean any contact you make to it is lawful. Whether you can email, call, or text a business or individual is governed by separate laws, CAN-SPAM, TCPA, GDPR, ePrivacy, state mini-TCPA laws, DNC registries, and platform terms (LinkedIn, WhatsApp, carriers, etc.). You are responsible for compliance with all of those, and you must independently verify, scrub, and obtain any required consent before reaching out. See our Acceptable Use Policy.

7. Removal requests

If you are an individual whose information appears in one of our Lead Lists and you want it removed, email hello@dropsite.hu with the subject line "Lead Deletion Request." We will remove your information from our database and from future Lead Lists within 45 days.

8. No legal advice

Nothing in this disclaimer is legal advice. If you are unsure whether your intended outreach is lawful, consult a lawyer qualified in the recipient's jurisdiction.

This document is a template and not legal advice. Have it reviewed by a U.S.-qualified attorney before publication.
