Help me understand point 12 of the TOS

If channel/user metadata is not allowed to be stored for more than 24 hours, would not sites like these:


http://stats.twitchapps.com/
https://twitchtools.com/stats

be breaking that part of the TOS, since they have kept data from a few months back for the purpose of the metrics? I figure I must not be interpreting the TOS correctly. Thanks

Unless SocialBlade has been granted permission to use data in the way they do, then yes, they are probably violating the ToS.

As for TwitchApps.com and TwitchTools.com, they are not exactly storing channel or user metadata (just the names of channels and top games). It’s a grey area for their use case given the ambiguity of the ToS, but they’re probably not in violation.
