Transparency

Sources & usage rights

Being public on the web is not permission to republish, and using AI to write code is not permission to feed a source’s data to AI. Each source gets its own check for each of fourteen actions.

How to read this page

Unknown is treated as “off”. An action runs only when it is explicitly allowed, in scope and in date. A paid plan or a public page never unlocks anything by itself. This is our reading of each source’s published terms, not legal advice.

Other sources

Other catalogs, manufacturer sites and APIs are evaluated one at a time. None is used until its terms are read and recorded here, and some (for example ones whose licences restrict AI use or image hosting) will only ever be used for the actions they explicitly allow. Sources we could not access or whose terms we could not confirm stay out.
