Is this web site legal?

Is it legal to import LinkedIn profile data and save in other web site database?

  • I'm planning to build a web site where I want to allow user to import their profile from LinkedIn and then I want to keep all details in my application database. Is it legal to do? Please help.

  • Answer:

    In the terms of use Linkedin states the information in the profile belongs to each user. So If a Linkedin user voluntarily include his/her information in a different web site is legal.

We have a free plugin that copy pastes data from LinkedIn to either Pipedrive or ZohoCRM : http://goo.gl/Y6o7aX We only access the data that the user has not hidden. 30th Mar update - you can now add your own custom fields to the free plugin so you can add other additional data you require.
