Use data“Without a plan, the API is for personal and non-commercial use — your own job search, research, or a tool you run for yourself. Showing our postings in a product or service you offer to others, paid or not, needs a plan.” [...] “While your account holds an API plan, you may store the data you read through our API and show it in your own product, including a commercial one. [...] You may not resell or redistribute the raw data — as a download, a dataset, or an API or feed whose purpose is to hand the postings on to other services. When the plan ends, stop showing the postings in your product, you may keep what you stored for your own internal analysis.”
