Is the scraping tool legal? Will it violate the target website's terms of service?
Our tool is designed in strict compliance with the ethical standards of public data acquisition. It only collects information that is publicly visible on the target website without requiring login, and adheres to the target website's robots.txt directives and rate limits. However, legal liability depends on how users utilize the data. We strongly recommend that you use the data for personal analysis, market research or internal decision-making, rather than for illegal purposes such as large-scale spam sending, direct competitive copying or infringing on user privacy, ensuring that the usage complies with the target website's terms of service and relevant local laws.
What is the scraping success rate of the tool? How will it handle anti-scraping mechanisms (such as CAPTCHAs, IP blocks)?
Our system adopts a multi-layer strategy to ensure high success rate and stability. The tool intelligently schedules requests to significantly reduce the probability of triggering defense mechanisms. When encountering CAPTCHAs or temporary IP blocks, the tool will process them automatically and make multiple attempts.
Our tool has undergone large-scale, long-term scraping tasks before launch.
Can the latest data be obtained?
Each scraping task will immediately extract the latest public data from the target platform, ensuring that the results are synchronized with the platform without relying on any cache, thus guaranteeing the timeliness of the data.
What formats can the scraping results be exported to?
You can export the results into structured formats such as JSON, CSV.
