Q: Can I copy and use this data for my New York Real Estate website?
UPDATE:
Just trying to understand. If I can take the data from the nassau county website, why can't I take it from the other websites as it's all public data other than houses for sale by owner?
I have a website for real estate. I would like it to have the latest deals available for homes in the area.
Like displayed in the following sites:
http://www.zillow.com/nassau-county-ny/foreclosures/
http://www.zillow.com/nassau-county-fl/foreclosures/
From these websites I cant take the data I know that much. Im trying to figure out where they get the data from.
This is where our local county posts its foreclosures:
https://www.nassaucountyny.gov/1863/Upcoming-Auctions
Can I take this data and place it on my website?
A: You can take data from the Nassau County site.

A: The data from the county is public domain, from the private companies you're not on very good footing from a legal standpoint.
