FWIW, quite some time ago, I asked River about this on IRC (back when the first reports of heavy scraping on osm.org appeared), and he said that there wasn't a policy like that, and that scraping wasn't a problem so far. > OpenStreetMap's tile usage policy can be found at > http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tile_usage_policy for reference. I have always told people that they should use this policy for the hikebike and hillshading tiles when they asked if they could use them in their app or on their website.
