Are there any limitations on storing twitter data in a database?

[Amir Michail]

Hi,

Can we store whatever we like in a database?

Are there any limitations on what can be stored and for how long?

Are there any rules against using stale data?

Any restrictions on what you can store that's consumed via the REST
API or Search API is in our Terms of Service: http://twitter.com/terms

This is the only relevant part I found in the Terms of Service:

"The Twitter service makes it possible to post images and text hosted
on Twitter to outside websites. This use is accepted (and even
encouraged!). However, pages on other websites which display data
hosted on Twitter.com must provide a link back to Twitter."

So it seems that keeping a copy of (potentially large) parts of the
social graph is fine.
