Hello,

I want to retrieve information from the website through an automated process. I have noticed in the TOU, section 12c that it says:

No Data Mining.

You agree that you will not (a) obtain or attempt to obtain any information from the Service or any Game using any method not expressly permitted by Blizzard; (b) intercept, examine or otherwise observe any proprietary communications protocol used by a client or the Service, whether through the use of a network analyzer, packet sniffer or other device; (c) use any third-party software to collect information from or through a Game client or the Service, including without limitation information about your character, any Account registered to you, virtual items, other players, or other Game data.


I would like to know where I can find a list of expressly permitted methods to retrieve this information.

I don't want to rely on SC2ranks either, as the data is slow to update (unless you are in the top 2% of the global playerbase) and the site is unreliable.

Please report any Code of Conduct violations, including:

Threats of violence. We take these seriously and will alert the proper authorities.

Posts containing personal information about other players. This includes physical addresses, e-mail addresses, phone numbers, and inappropriate photos and/or videos.

Harassing or discriminatory language. This will not be tolerated.
