# For Website and App Owners

Last updated: September 2026

Jsonify builds and runs data pipelines that collect publicly available commercial information — prices, products, menus, listings, availability, ratings and reviews — from websites and mobile apps, on behalf of business customers. This page is for the operators of those sources.

## How Collection Works

*   Pipelines read only content that is available without signing in, subscribing, or paying;
*   For websites, robots.txt is read when a source is added, and no collection is built for disallowed paths;
*   Request rates are limited, and fetched content is cached so sources are requested fewer times;
*   Pipelines target commercial fields, not people, and our [Acceptable Use Policy](https://www.jsonify.com/legal/acceptable-use) prohibits customers from using them to profile, locate, or monitor individuals.

## Raising Collection from Your Source

If you operate a website or app and want to raise collection from it, contact [paul@jsonify.com](mailto:paul@jsonify.com). Tell us:

*   The website or app concerned, and your role in operating it;
*   What you are asking for — information about collection, a change to how your source is read, or that collection stop;
*   Anything that helps us identify the traffic, such as paths or time windows.

We will review promptly. Jsonify may stop collecting from any source at any time, for all customers; where we do, affected customers are notified and are not billed for rows not collected. We will confirm the outcome of your request.

## Robots.txt

The simplest standing way to shape automated collection from your website is robots.txt: pipelines are not built for paths your robots.txt disallows.

## Individuals

If your request is about your own personal data rather than a source you operate, use the [privacy request form](https://www.jsonify.com/legal/remove-my-data) instead.
