Public Data Licence
Free for human research and citation, with specific permissions for general-purpose search and AI. Other systematic reuse and commercial financial-data products require permission.
Last updated: 1 October 2026
Plain-English summary
You may look up, study, quote, and cite reasonable portions of datawiser's public data. Search engines and general-purpose AI providers may crawl, index, train on, retrieve, and cite it under section 3, including in commercially operated general-purpose services. Except for the limited uses expressly permitted in sections 1 and 3, systematic collection, resale, redistribution, and use to build a commercial financial-data product or a substitute for datawiser require written permission.
This Public Data Licence ("Licence") applies to data values, tables, summaries, identifiers, metadata, and derived values made available without authentication on datawiser.ai, including pages under /free-data, /stock, and /reference (collectively, the "Public Data"), unless a page or agreement says otherwise. By copying or using the Public Data, you agree to this Licence.
The licensor is DATAWISER LTD, a private limited company registered in England and Wales under company number 16904026, with its registered office at 124-128 City Road, London, England, EC1V 2NX ("datawiser", "we", "us", or "our").
1. Uses allowed without asking
datawiser grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence, revocable as described in section 8, to:
- view and use the Public Data for personal study and research;
- use individual records or limited excerpts in education, academic research, journalism, commentary, and other non-commercial work;
- perform ad hoc human research within a business, provided the Public Data is not systematically collected, supplied to clients, or integrated into a product, service, model, or production workflow; and
- publish findings that refer to limited portions of the Public Data with the attribution required below.
These permissions apply only to rights that datawiser or its licensors are entitled to license. They do not limit rights or exceptions you may have under applicable law.
2. Attribution
When you publish, display, or communicate Public Data, identify datawiser as the source, link directly to the page from which the value came, and preserve the relevant observation date. Do not imply that datawiser endorses you, your work, or your conclusions.
For the general-purpose search and AI uses expressly permitted in section 3, that section's specific attribution guidance applies instead of this section's mandatory attribution requirements. The prohibition on implying endorsement still applies.
3. Search engines and general-purpose AI
Despite the commercial-use restrictions below, operators of general-purpose search engines, foundation models, and AI assistants may:
- crawl the public pages in accordance with published robots directives and reasonable technical limits;
- cache and index page content, including creating embeddings used solely to retrieve, rank, summarise, and cite the relevant datawiser page;
- use the public page content as part of broad, multi-source corpora to train, fine-tune, evaluate, and improve general-purpose AI models and assistants; and
- return brief excerpts or individual values in response to a user's query. Where the service presents source citations or links, it should identify datawiser and link directly to the relevant source page.
This permission applies even where the search engine, model, or assistant is operated commercially. It is limited to general-purpose search and AI uses. It does not permit a service whose primary purpose is to compile, supply, query, or analyse financial, securities-ownership, free-float, or shares-outstanding data; expose the Public Data in bulk or reconstructible form; enable systematic extraction; recreate the datawiser dataset; or substitute for a datawiser subscription or commercial data licence.
4. Uses that require written commercial permission
Except for the limited uses expressly permitted in sections 1 and 3, contact datawiser before using the Public Data in or for any commercial product, service, feature, dataset, customer deliverable, data feed, API, specialised model, report, benchmark, index, valuation, risk system, investment process, trading system, or other automated or production workflow. Permission is also required where systematic use of the Public Data replaces, competes with, or avoids the need for a datawiser subscription or commercial data licence.
5. Uses that are not permitted
Except for the limited uses expressly permitted in sections 1 and 3, and without prior written permission, you must not:
- extract, scrape, download, or reconstruct all or a substantial portion of the Public Data;
- repeatedly or systematically extract individual records in a way that recreates or substitutes for the dataset;
- sell, sublicense, redistribute, or provide bulk access to the Public Data;
- use the Public Data to train, fine-tune, evaluate, improve, or operate a model or automated system whose primary purpose is to reproduce, distribute, query, or commercialise datawiser data, or to provide a substitute for a datawiser product or commercial data licence;
- remove attribution, conceal provenance, misstate observation dates, or present datawiser-calculated values as company-reported facts; or
- circumvent access controls, rate limits, robots directives, or other technical safeguards.
6. Rights and source materials
DATAWISER LTD and its licensors reserve all rights not expressly granted by this Licence, including rights in the compilation, selection, arrangement, verification, presentation, and maintenance of the Public Data and in datawiser's derived data and written materials. Underlying company filings and third-party source materials remain subject to the rights and terms of their respective owners.
7. Accuracy, advice, and warranties
Public Data may be delayed, incomplete, or incorrect and may change without notice. It is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of accuracy, completeness, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. Public Data is not investment, legal, tax, or accounting advice. To the fullest extent permitted by law, DATAWISER LTD is not liable for losses arising from its use.
Nothing in this Licence excludes or limits liability for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, death or personal injury caused by negligence, or any other liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited. Your mandatory statutory rights remain unaffected.
8. Breach, changes, and separate agreements
Your permission under this Licence ends automatically if you breach its terms. We may change this Licence or revoke permissions for future use by updating this page and its last-updated date. A change or revocation does not retrospectively make an earlier permitted use a breach. Quotations, citations, and publications made in compliance with the version applying when they were made may remain available, subject to that version's attribution and other applicable conditions. This does not authorise new uses beyond the permissions then in force.
This Licence governs Public Data accessed without authentication. Authenticated API access, including Free accounts, and paid subscriptions are governed by our Terms of Service and the applicable plan or separate agreement. This Licence does not expand or restrict the rights granted for those services. A separate commercial agreement takes precedence for the data and uses it expressly covers.
9. Governing law and jurisdiction
This Licence and any dispute or non-contractual obligation arising from it are governed by the laws of England and Wales. Subject to any mandatory rights that apply to you, the courts of England and Wales have exclusive jurisdiction.
10. Commercial licensing
We welcome commercial use under an appropriate licence. Contact datawiser to discuss data feeds, API access, redistribution, specialised model use, or product integration.
