That site is “A growing set of web scrapers designed to output
consistent geodata about as many places of business in the world as
possible.”
I don't think it's CC0 licenced. It's a collection of other databases.
Have they gotten permission from all the business that they scrape that
they can licence this resultant data as CC0? I don't think so.
They could claim the data is CC0, or that the moon is made of cheese,
but that doesn't mean the data is CC0.
I don't think you can import this.

Dear OSM community,
I've been mapping Moundsville, WV nowadays (one of my friends live there
so i chose that location). I'm ottwiz on OSM
(https://www.openstreetmap.org/user/ottwiz) from Hungary. Sometimes i
didn't know how to publish imports correctly from
https://www.alltheplaces.xyz/( it has CC-0 with waiver license), because
i never imported anything. I already talked in US slack, and they saw no
problems with importing these data, just they warned me they can't be
100% accurate, because the "spider" bot takes the data from websites
that publish their coordinates on a map, and sometimes it can be like
100-200 (or more) yards off the place. Without further ado, I only
imported those which are 100% accurate. (checked on other maps, that's
why, but of course there is some that is on correct position on Google,
but not in this database, so i omitted those ones, because taking stuff
from Google is not complying with OSM rules). I also put a "Taco Bell"
store, which address is 103 Lafayette Ave, Moundsville, WV 26041. It's
between two shops (which have 101 and 105 Lafayette Ave respectively),
so it was easy to guess the location.
It's a thing that I already finished my importing, just someone told me
if i didn't go to the location, I shouldn't use "survey" for source. OK,
i got it.
So, if nobody has any questions, i'd leave the already imported stuff
alone(it's like 15 shops around Lafayette avenue, changesets which
contain them: https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/89655873 ;
https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/89742498); , and open a case in
the catalogue and a small wiki page that i did this import on OSM.
Sorry, just this is my first import, so i didn't know i had to take
these steps.
