Legal Question in Intellectual Property in California
Hello,
We are an internet advertising company that would like to take online data listings from websites that have free online searchable databases of potential advertisers (names, telephone, other contact, etc.). We want to take this information and 1) put it on our own website and 2) also generate automated sales leads from these listings? Is this something we can do?

This would likely violate the terms of use of the sites in question, and expose you to civil and/or criminal charges of trespass, conversion, and other cyber-crimes.
Read the Terms of Use carefully before you proceed.
