API Abuse Policy

Please note that National Statistical reserves all rights to temporarily throttle data speeds or impose additional data limits in cases of abuse, an excessive number IP addresses accessing the API simultaneously via the same key, improperly written code that affects other customers' use of the API in any way, or construction of an identical paid app or website that utilizes a high percentage of National Statistical's data in an effort to directly replicate our services.

Offending parties will be given one written warning via the email address linked to their accounts, along with a manual API key reset. On the second infraction, API keys will be revoked, access will be temporarily suspended, with the option to cancel the account with a refund issued for any and all remaining account credit. On the third infraction, API access will be permanently terminated without any further recourse or refund.
