Frequently Asked Questions
Is the act of web data collection (“scraping”) generally allowed?
Yes. Simply accessing publicly available information via automated means is considered permissible under the applicable regulatory and legal frameworks. Bright Data’s services are based on its automated solutions, which strive to emulate the behavior of an individual end user. There is nothing that can be done through Bright Data’s services that cannot be done by a human with a web browser. This is considered as a legitimate practice, which is also essential in securing relevant and efficient access to public data.

How does Bright Data ensure compliance with applicable privacy laws?
As an enthusiastic advocate of internet security and privacy, Bright Data understands the importance of providing data subjects with greater control on their privacy and data. Therefore, we have made considerable efforts to ensure that our privacy practices comply with data protection laws, including the GDPR and CCPA, and the industry’s best practices regarding, among other things, respecting data subjects’ requests to exercise their rights. We are constantly examining applicable legal developments and the relevant provisions of the applicable laws to develop tools for our customers’ compliant use of our services.
Bright Data has designed a detailed Privacy Policy to provide all required information about its privacy practices.
Does Bright Data collect personal data during web scraping?
Bright Data collects publicly available data only, i.e., information that does require log-in or sign-in to access. Some of the public information collected by us from the internet may occasionally include personal data, even though personal data collection is not our main business or objective.
What security measures does Bright Data have in place to protect customer data?
Bright Data manages data for over 15,000 organizations around the world. We understand that our customers expect us to protect their data with the highest standards and are committed to providing them with a highly secure and reliable environment. Our security model and controls are based on international standards and industry best practices, such as ISO 27001, ISO 27018, CSA Star level I, and OWASP Top 10, as well as best practice regarding Data encryption, Infrastructure Security and External Security Audits.
How often do you update the data?
Our datasets are refreshed upon request prior to purchase to ensure the most current information. Additionally, the periodicity of updates varies depending on the specific dataset in question.
Do you include images in the dataset?
Records include URLs to images. In some cases, the images can be acquired as separate datasets.
Can I get a larger sample to check the data with my system?
Yes, we can provide larger samples; please contact our sales representatives.
Can you combine 2 datasets for me?
We can perform queries combining two different datasets, assuming a common identifier in both datasets we can use as a reference. Please contact our data experts if you have such a need.
Do you have historical data for these datasets?
When we refresh a dataset, we store some or all of its past values; we have up to 1 year of historical data for most datasets.
