Academic Licensing and Use of Our Databases
Do you offer an academic license or academic pricing?
We do not have a separate license or different pricing specifically for academic institutions or research. The pricing listed on our website applies to academic researchers as well.
Can your databases be used for academic research?
Yes. Many academic researchers have successfully used our Comprehensive US Zip Code Database and other products in their projects.
Are there any restrictions on academic use?
You can:
- Share the database with coauthors and collaborators on your project.
- Share analysis based on the database (e.g., summary statistics, regression results) publicly in publications and presentations.
You cannot:
- Publicly redistribute the database itself, including posting it on websites or repositories.
These terms are similar to other restricted-use datasets commonly used in academic research.
How can I purchase the database for academic use?
You can purchase directly through our website. If you need an invoice for your institution, please contact us and we will prepare one for you.
