And how do you get your 'inventory data'? Aren't you scraping (or using scraped data) yourself? Oh the irony :)

No, we're a contracted provider for these customers. They ingest their data into our network through APIs or CSVs.

Makes little sense - customers upload data to you and they don't want any data back? Really?

It's not them who want it back, it's their competitors who want it.

I get it why someone else scrapes it. But why customers upload data in the first place? Aren't they interested in getting some OTHER data from you and that OTHER data may as well be scraped?
