Please re-post the link. Is this a viewer of the grammar or of an 
instance of an X12 transaction (the actual data)?

If it's of the grammar, i.e. the metadata for the standard, you're 
probably infringing on copyright since it would be a derivative work. 
However, if I remember correctly you obtain certain rights by buying the 
X12 table data (not cheap). Other types of rights come with buying hard 
or soft copies of the published standards. Still other rights come from 
being an ASC X12 member. I advise checking with DISA for specifics. DISA 
has in the past few years gone after some of the more flagrant copyright 
violators.
