    Am I allowed to use the Google Keyword Planner’s results as a feature in my commercial website/app?

    I can’t seem to find any guidelines on this online.

    This would not be a core function of the app. That is, the primary value isn’t merely reselling access to their available results. Instead, it’s just a side feature on top of the existing core functionality — where people can basically use this one additional function to quickly find out: “How much search volume is there in this particular industry I work in?” — but the core utility of the tool is geared way more broadly towards helping people out in these industries.

    Specifically, I’d be interested in accessing the Keyword Planner programatically, probably using Python, to just batch a bunch of “Keyword Planner” results for a bunch of queries I have, output the results, store these as needed, then output them to users on the website when they click or type the relevant things.

    Is this allowed for Google Ads? Don’t want to get banned for violating anything, and I don’t want to do anything wrong or unethical.

    Thanks!

    No, but plenty of companies do this anyway. Ads has some very mature anti-scraping measures, so be prepared to build up & cycle through many Ads accounts.

    If your core competency isn’t going to be KWP scraping, an easier option is probably just paying another scraping company for the data (dataforseo, keywordtool.io KWP API)
