Thanks David. That's the interpretation that I had with regards to the conditions on the linked page.
But IANAL and unfortunately our in-house counsel had a different opinion... From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of David Richards Sent: Wednesday, 4 July 2012 2:18 PM To: ozDotNet Subject: Re: Australian Postcode data source Ben, Doesn't it depend on exactly how you're using it? I think it's non-commercial in the sense that you can't give external access to the data. I get the impression if you intend to use it internally it's ok. For example, as a lookup for some internal application rather than one you're trying to sell. I used to work for a mail house and we used it to help validate address data.
