What is the difference between an OS OpenData plan and a Premium plan?
*Our OS OpenData plan* ensures you only consume OS OpenData. It locks
down calls to our APIs so that you can never accidentally use or be
charged for our Premium Data.
The OS OpenData plan is free to use for any purpose, including providing
services from which you make a profit.
You can always upgrade to a Premium plan later which will unlock our
Premium Data for you to use.
*Our Premium plan * opens up the use of our Premium Data. This is our
most detailed mapping and geospatial feature data. You receive £1,000 of
free Premium Data transactions each month on a use-it-or-lose-it basis.
Once you've used up your free credit we'll either start charging for
further Premium Data usage or, if you don't provide payment details,
we'll pause your ability to make calls to our Premium Data until the
next month when you receive another £1,000 of free Premium Data^*

There was a reference to £1000 worth of data being made free each
month to individual users - can't find out how this works yet. This
may allow us as individuals to populate OSM and OSM essentially
aggregates the data - rather like postcode data.
Generally reconstructing a database piecemeal is considered no
different from copying a substantial part in one go.
I suspect the reality with postcodes is that the the Post Office
doesn't see collection of individual codes from the relevant business
or resident as a significant risk, as they don't believe anyone will
construct a sufficiently complete database that way.
Unlike natural features, both postcodes and telephone numbers start
their life as entries in databases, but both of them need to be known
to contacts of a person without the need for formally entering into a
licence agreement.
However, if every user used their free quota of postcode searches each
day, I think the Post Office would take action.
Normally when limited searches are allowed, there is also a personal
use only restriction applied.
