google-places-api - 存储 Google Places API 数据 - 是否允许？

Question

我正在创建一个网站，该网站本质上是一个属于特定类别的美国企业的目录。为了填充数据库，我使用 Google Places API 来收集符合我的条件的企业名称和地址列表。

我可以无限期地存储这些数据吗？我找不到任何明确禁止存储 Places API 数据的文档，但我知道其他 API 对您可以保留数据的时间有限制。

Answer 1

根据使用条款，这是不允许的。使用 Google Places API 的应用程序必须遵守规定的 Google Maps/Google Earth API 服务条款 here :

All applications that use the Google Places or Google Places Autocomplete APIs must adhere to the requirements described in the Developer Policies and the Google Maps/Google Earth API Terms of Service. The Google Places API and the Google Places Autocomplete API share a usage quota as described in the Usage Limits documentation.

Google Maps/Google Earth APIs Terms of Service section 10.1.3 (b)不允许出于临时缓存以外的目的存储内容:

You must not pre-fetch, cache, or store any Content, except that you may store: (i) limited amounts of Content for the purpose of improving the performance of your Maps API Implementation if you do so temporarily (and in no event for more than 30 calendar days), securely, and in a manner that does not permit use of the Content outside of the Service; and (ii) any content identifier or key that the Maps APIs Documentation specifically permits you to store. For example, you must not use the Content to create an independent database of "places" or other local listings information.

所以不，你不能无限期地存储这些数据。
