# TERMS.md — robots.txt and terms findings (Phase 0, checked 2026-10-26 PDT)

Method: a single GET of /robots.txt per host, 2.5 s apart, UA `endomorphosis-world-laws-research/0.1`, TLS verification on. No page crawling. Nothing was done to get past a block. SSL errors were left as they are and **not** retried with verify=False.

## Terms of use (desk research)

- US federal (uscourts.gov, fjc.gov, govinfo, supremecourt.gov): US government works, public domain (17 USC 105). FJC offers an official CSV export, so use that instead of HTML.

- Cornell LII: material is free to use, but the site asks that it not be bulk scraped. Prefer govinfo/uscode.house.gov for the federal rules text.

- UK gov.uk / find-court-tribunal / justice.gov.uk CPR: Open Government Licence v3. The court finder has a public JSON API. judiciary.uk: Crown copyright, reuse under OGL unless stated otherwise.

- CanLII: terms prohibit automated bulk downloading. Use the CanLII API (needs a key) or the primary court sites. Justice Laws: reproduction allowed under its Reproduction of Federal Law policy.

- AustLII: disclaimers/policy forbid robotic bulk downloading. Use the primary court sites. Australian gov sites are mostly CC BY 4.0.

- India: government sites under GODL/NDSAP. eCourts case status sits behind a captcha, so it's **out of scope**. Use the court-complex directory and Wayback only.

- EU curia/e-Justice: reuse permitted with attribution (Commission Decision 2011/833/EU).

- Other national portals: terms not individually reviewed yet (TODO Phase 1). The default is to treat them as official public information with attribution.

## Issues

- **Disallow: / for all agents**: www.flcourts.gov, www.sccourts.org (also Crawl-delay 120000). Don't crawl these. Use Wayback snapshots or ask the courts for permission/bulk data.

- **403 / WAF / HTML instead of robots.txt** (likely Cloudflare/Akamai bot protection): flagged in the table. Don't try to get past it. Use Wayback.

- **TLS errors** (certificate verify failed / handshake EOF, mainly Indian HC .nic.in/.gov.in hosts and some Canadian/AU hosts): not retried insecurely. Wayback, or retry later from a different network.

- **404 (no robots.txt)**: no restrictions are stated. Crawl politely, ≥2 s apart.

### Florida robots review (2026-10-26, after Phase 2)
I re-fetched www.flcourts.gov/robots.txt (HTTP 200). It disallows all paths (`Disallow: /`) for `User-agent: *` and allows only named bots, including ia_archiver. All 16 Phase 2 Florida records came from web.archive.org `id_` replays of 6 captures dated 2023 to 2026. None came from a live flcourts.gov fetch, so the robots rule was respected and no quarantine was needed. Any future Florida work must stay Wayback-only.

India district courts (*.dcourts.gov.in): **dropped for Phase 3** (0 records). See 'Phase 3 post-processing' below.


## Phase 3 post-processing (2026-10-27, PDT)

Scope: dedup, judge cleanup, progress/sinks fix, manifest, light network checks. No Hugging Face or upstream push. No originals deleted; pre-edit copies of progress.json, TERMS.md and sources.csv are in data/phase3/_backups_20261027/.

- **Dedup**: every non-empty raw `data/phase3/*.jsonl` now has a `.dedup.jsonl` (first occurrence wins, key = record without `retrieval_date`; same as the phase1/phase2 files). 7 dedup files from 2026-10-26 were checked and left as they were (identical to a re-run). 62 were added. Duplicates came from resumed runs re-appending the same records (Alberta, NZ court finder, Quebec, South Carolina, DC, Iowa, Louisiana, Missouri, NH, NJ, Florida each had every record 2x).
- **Judge cleanup**: `_clean.jsonl` (fields `title`, `full_name`, `raw_text` on judge rows; non-judge rows are unchanged). The 28 clean files from 2026-10-26 were left as they were (their non-judge rows match the current dedup). 3 new ones were written: North Dakota, Singapore, South Africa. The original cleaner script is not on the box, so the new files come from `tools/p3_post.py`, a re-implementation. On the phase1/2/3 files that already exist, it reproduces about 85% of the kept judge rows and keeps about 355 rows the original dropped. Treat the 3 new clean files as best-effort.
- **progress.json**: 19 missing entries backfilled (72/72 present): 70 ok, 1 failed (Oklahoma), 1 dropped (India). Michigan is `ok` but yielded 0 records (1 live page, nothing extracted).
- **phase3.py**: `Sink` now reloads the keys and counts of an existing output file on resume, so a re-run no longer appends duplicates. Original saved as `phase3.py.pre_resume_fix`.
- **Oklahoma (oscn.net)**: marked failed, reason Cloudflare Turnstile/WAF. robots.txt on oscn.net returned a non-robots HTML response (2026-10-26). Wayback CDX for oscn.net timed out on 2026-10-26 and returned HTTP 503 on the retry on 2026-10-27. **oklahomacourts.gov**: robots.txt and the homepage could not be fetched at all (TLS handshake ends with unexpected EOF, with verification on, via both requests and curl, at www. and the apex host). So robots rules, terms and Cloudflare status could not be determined, and **nothing was scraped**. Retry from another network later.
- **India**: Wayback CDX (2026-10-27, one try per host): oscn.net 503, ecourts.gov.in 503 (not fetched; eCourts bulk is excluded anyway), dcourts.gov.in HTTP 200 with captures (e.g. aalo.dcourts.gov.in 2025-04-24, plus captcha image URLs). Common Crawl index lookups for dcourts.gov.in on CC-MAIN-2024-10, CC-MAIN-2022-49 and CC-MAIN-2020-50 returned 504, 504 and 502. No India records were collected, so India district courts is marked **dropped** for Phase 3. The dcourts.gov.in Wayback captures could be revisited later. Network log: data/phase3/network_checks_20261027.log.
- Excluded and not touched: CanLII, AustLII, Cornell LII, eCourts India bulk.
- Florida and South Carolina (robots `Disallow: /`) hold Wayback-derived records only.

### Phase 3 deduped totals per country
| country | sources w/ data | courts | judges | rules | forms | total | judges after cleanup |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| AU | 6 | 1205 | 4 | 518 | 2986 | 4713 | 1 |
| CA | 7 | 762 | 242 | 1014 | 699 | 2717 | 187 |

| **total** | 69 | 6163 | 640 | 7480 | 8827 | 23110 | 265 |

"Judges after cleanup" is the judge row count in the highest tier per source (_clean where present). Manifest: data/phase3/MANIFEST.sha256.

## Phase 4 notes (2026-10-30, PDT)
- **oscn.net**: robots.txt (200, text/plain) = `User-agent: *` `Disallow: /` (Allow /rss/, /recaptcha/). No live fetch; Wayback copies only. Outcome: Wayback pass FAILED, 0 records (web.archive.org unreachable, TLS reset, 2026-10-30 22:21-23:10 PDT).
- **oklahomacourts.gov** (apex and www): TLS handshake ends with unexpected EOF (verification on; requests and curl). robots/terms/Cloudflare state could not be determined; nothing fetched (Common Crawl fallback also 0 records).
- **paclii.org**: Cloudflare Managed robots.txt: `User-agent: *` `Content-Signal: search=yes,ai-train=no,use=reference` `Allow: /`; live requests get HTTP 403 (Cloudflare). Not bypassed, no terms found permitting collection, so skipped (no Wayback/CC copy either).
- All other phase4 hosts: robots/terms are checked per host at run time by `phase4.py` and written to progress.json `robots_txt_status`; the run was stopped by the resource gate before that.

## Phase 4 results (2026-10-30, PDT)
Run: `phase4.py` (stopped once by its own resource gate at 22:34 PDT, MemAvail 4.4Gi from other box load, then resumed once), plus `tools/p4_us.py` / `tools/p4_us2.py` (US courts missing from CourtListener crosswalk), post-processed by `tools/p4_post.py`. Raw files are data/phase4/<source>.jsonl; `.dedup.jsonl` = first-occurrence dedup (no duplicates were found, 7243 -> 7243); `_clean.jsonl` = dedup + judge cleanup (title/full_name/raw_text; pt/es titles Desembargador/a, Juiz/a, Magistrado/a, Ministro/a, Juez/a added) + UTF-8-as-cp1252 mojibake repair (38 records, 4 files); written for sources with judge rows or repaired text. Manifest: data/phase4/MANIFEST.sha256 (highest tier per source wins). Backups of edited docs: data/phase4/_backups_20261030/.

- robots.txt unreadable (HTML/WAF page instead of robots.txt): Argentina PJN, Bahamas Judiciary, Brazil STJ, Brazil STM, Costa Rica Poder Judicial
- robots.txt Disallow for our user-agent (live not allowed; archive copies unobtainable): Brazil TJPE, Brazil TJSE, Brazil TRF1, Mexico Poder Judicial MEX, Oklahoma OSCN court locations (Wayback)
- allowed but no extractable records / timeout: Brazil TJAC, Brazil TJGO, Brazil TJMG, Brazil TJMS, El Salvador CSJ, Inter-American Court of Human Rights
- PacLII: skipped (Cloudflare 403 and `ai-train=no` content signal; no Wayback/CC copy).
- Oklahoma: oscn.net robots `Disallow: /` (Wayback only) and the Wayback extraction failed (web.archive.org TLS reset; archive.org itself reachable); oklahomacourts.gov TLS EOF. Outcome: 0 Oklahoma records.
- US missing courts (95 records with courtlistener_id): addresses verified for tax, bia, texapp, ohioctapp, calctapp, pasuperct, cadc, cafc from official sites; no addresses for nyappdiv (nycourts.gov Cloudflare managed challenge), fladistctapp (flcourts.gov robots `Disallow: /`, flcourts.org 500), lactapp (la-fcca.org robots 301/500), la (lasc.org returns SPA page instead of robots.txt).

## Phase 4 publication notes (2026-10-30, PDT)
- Published rows: 6,858 (raw 7,243; tier-selected 7,099; 3 dropped (2 judge rows whose name is not a person, 1 non-court Oklahoma stub); 241 Brazil TJTO rows held pending the owner and not published; 3 real judges restored). The per-country table above is the scraper result as run; the published counts are in `PUBLISH_COUNTS.json` (`phase4`).
- Correction to the notes above: the scraper result lists "0 Oklahoma records"; the CourtListener crosswalk stub for Oklahoma Attorney General Reports (not a court) was in the data and has been dropped, so Oklahoma now has 0 court rows as stated. Brazil TJTO: the host's robots.txt carries a block-all group (`User-agent: *` / `Disallow: /`), so its rows are held, not published.
- Content-Signal: FSM Supreme Court, Mexico Poder Judicial BC and Mexico Poder Judicial CHP publish `Content-Signal: search=yes,ai-train=no,use=reference` (83 rows). Rows are kept for search and flagged `source_ai_train = 'no'`; do not use them for AI training.
- Rows from sources with an unconfirmed robots.txt result are kept and flagged `robots_unverified` (see README, Known issues).
- Hosts that disallowed our user agent, were blocked by a WAF, or failed TLS verification contributed no rows.
- Personal data: about 210 court `address` values contain telephone numbers (7 mobile or WhatsApp); unchanged, pending the owner (see README).

## Phase 4 per-source terms (derived)
Derived on 2026-10-30 from `data/phase4/progress.json` (the `robots_txt_status` and retrieval mode recorded per source at run time), not from a per-host review of each site's terms pages. `ai-train=no` marks the Content-Signal sources. Brazil TJTO is not listed (held pending the owner). The `terms` wording is generic (official court/judiciary site; link-level metadata only; site terms apply). The same text is stored per row in `metadata_json.terms_row` and in the `licence` column. `fetch mode` is `live` or `commoncrawl` (Common Crawl archive copy); the US crosswalk source also has `derived` stub rows.
