FAQ: Does DigThisData scrape numbers / data from the LCBO or other websites?

No. DigThisData has never scraped any data from the LCBO website and does not intend to. All data used is the property of the subscriber. We do not re-sell LCBO Sale of Data files. If one of the many types of LCBO data files are located in your SOD account, DigThisData will find them and ingest them into our system so you and the users you have granted access to can analyze them. 



Additionally, at no point is your data shared with any other account - this would be in violation of the Terms and Conditions for each data provider. See this help article for more information.
