Caching of Yahoo API data, permitted?

Question

Just a quick query really. Is it against the TOS to cache data extracted from Yahoo? For example if I were to use the Yahoo Geocode API, and cached the location data every time a search was completed, essentially storing it in my database so that location was then permanently stored for the future use and I wouldn't have to use the Geocode data?

Many thanks

Answer 1

It is against the ToS.

From the terms of service:

f. YOU SHALL NOT:
