# Licensing & Attribution

> What your plan lets you do with TheRundown data, how to attribute it, and when you need a Supplemental Agreement.

This page summarizes Section 3 of the [Terms of Service](https://therundown.io/terms). The Terms control if anything here differs.

## What each plan allows

| Plan                   | Data use                                                                                                                                                                               |
| ---------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Free, Starter          | Internal business or personal use only. No display to end users.                                                                                                                       |
| Pro and above          | Everything in Starter, plus **Commercial Display**: showing Data to end users of your own websites, apps, and products, including users who pay you. Attribution required.             |
| Supplemental Agreement | Anything beyond Commercial Display: retention past 24 hours, display without attribution, white-label or embedded distribution, and license confirmation letters for app-store review. |

"Data" means the odds, lines, scores, schedules, and related information you receive through the API. "Licensed Application" means an app, site, or product you own that displays it.

## Commercial Display on Pro and above

You may display Data, and values you derive from it such as best-price comparisons, line movement, and implied probabilities, to end users of your Licensed Applications, provided that:

* your application adds its own functionality, content, or analysis, and does not make Data available as a feed, export, download, bulk dataset, or API for use outside it;
* you do not expose raw API responses or share, embed, or sublicense your API credentials;
* every screen that shows Data, or a persistent element visible from it, carries the attribution below;
* you show sportsbook names and other source identification as delivered, without altering or misattributing them;
* your terms with your end users prohibit redistribution of the Data.

Commercial Display rights end when your Pro-or-higher plan ends or is suspended. You are responsible for your application's compliance with the laws and platform rules that apply to it, including advertising, gambling, consumer-protection, and age or location restrictions.

## Attribution

<Note>
  Use the text **"Data provided by TheRundown"**, linking to `https://therundown.io` wherever your display supports links. Any other wording needs written approval.
</Note>

**Placement.** On each screen that shows Data, or in a persistent footer or bar visible from it. Not behind a tap, hover, scroll-to-reveal, or settings menu.

**Legibility.** At least 11 pt on mobile or 12 px on web, with text contrast of 4.5:1 or better.

**Store listing.** One line in your App Store or Play listing, or an in-app About screen, for example: "Odds, scores, and line-movement data provided by TheRundown (therundown.io)."

**Plain HTML**

```html theme={null}
<a href="https://therundown.io?utm_source=yourapp&utm_medium=attribution"
   rel="noopener">Data provided by TheRundown</a>
```

**Badge.** Ready-made SVG lockups for dark and light backgrounds are available at `https://therundown.io/assets/attribution/`. Use them unaltered. Plain text with a link is equally acceptable.

If you need a different form of attribution, or none, ask [legal@therundown.io](mailto:legal@therundown.io).

## Retention

You may cache Data only as needed for the real-time behavior of your application, and for no more than 24 hours, unless your plan says otherwise or a Supplemental Agreement grants extended retention.

You rarely need to store history yourself. Opening and closing lines and your plan's odds-history window are served by the API on Pro and above. See the [Historical Odds guide](/guides/historical-odds).

## Sportsbook names and logos

Sportsbook names arrive with each price as source identification and may be displayed. Sportsbook logos and trademarks belong to their owners; TheRundown grants no rights in them, and their use is your responsibility.

## App-store and platform review letters

If Apple, Google, or another platform asks you to confirm your rights to display third-party content, we can provide a signed license confirmation letter. Letters are issued under a Supplemental Agreement (our Commercial Display Addendum), which also covers extended retention. Email [legal@therundown.io](mailto:legal@therundown.io) with your plan, the application, and the platform, and we will turn it around within two business days of a signed addendum.

## What always requires a Supplemental Agreement

* Storing Data for more than 24 hours
* Display without attribution, or white-label and embedded distribution
* Providing Data to third parties as a feed, export, dataset, or API
* Any use by a licensed betting operator for trading, pricing, or risk management
* Training, fine-tuning, or validating machine-learning or statistical models
