A simple test is: Am I helping their business? If it is the venue
business itself, then yes you are. If you take from a listing site -
where their value is the list itself, then no you are not, you are
potentially acting to its detriment.
FYI, your till receipts are another good source.

This has come up a few times on the mailing lists, and the advise
usually given is it's okay to source a few facts here and there like
the address or contact number, but just don't start taking a whole
database of venues and copy that database.

Is it acceptable to copy a street address (and other contact details)
from a business's webpage?
For example in https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/72452124 (what
changed is easier to see at
https://osmlab.github.io/osm-deep-history/#/way/705884944 ) I
added the
street address as listed on their website.
If this isn't acceptable, what is an acceptable way of getting an
address if it is not obvious during a site survey?

Kim
