- **How is the data obtained?**
- The data is an aggregation of a variety of sources. The rule that I hold with high regard is that all data needs to be entirely publicly available. Any data that requires API key access or requires a paid tier is never included in this database. Data that you are being charged for is often owned and mainted by the company you have a subscription at and therefore publicly sharing this information online is against their Terms of Service (ToS). However, data that is publicly available can freely be shared (read more about this subject [here](https://techcrunch.com/2022/04/18/web-scraping-legal-court/?guccounter=1&guce_referrer=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ29vZ2xlLmNvbS8&guce_referrer_sig=AQAAAJRZe3F6wCbuO_n8PJ9JtAHpOY4dF2gA_tO0gJF2PhfWUueUcRQataJwNS9FZlp9rH8f8_aiCBfA2v7wlHyXyVLUfMrca4kq0_m6CYSvK7eMk9zuEhnXJOvE0lrHWXSPTtL-lHP8UJD4SyWTpQ2BnCNx-kv3mG7GGn_G_3SGVvhP)) especially since this database will never cost any money.

- **What categorization method is used?**
- The categorization for Equities is based on a loose approximation of GICS. No actual data is collected from this source and this database merely tries to reflect the sectors and industries as best as possible. This is completely done through manual curation. The actual datasets as curated by MSCI has not been used in the development of any part of this database and remains the most up to date, paid, solution. Other categorizations are entirely developed by the author and can freely be changed.
