# ¿Es legal el web scraping?

Explora la legalidad del web scraping, las comprobaciones clave antes de recopilar datos públicos y cuándo consultar a un asesor legal.

El web scraping es completamente legal cuando se realiza sin infringir ninguna ley relativa a los sitios de origen o a los datos en sí. Sin embargo, le recomendamos encarecidamente que lea un [artículo dedicado](https://oxylabs.io/blog/is-web-scraping-legal)  que profundiza más en el tema y consulte a su asesor legal antes de realizar cualquier proyecto de scraping para evitar riesgos.

### **Extracción de datos de video de YouTube**

La legalidad de extraer datos de video de YouTube depende de los datos específicos que pretenda extraer y de la forma en que pretenda utilizarlos. Asegúrese de que su uso cumpla con las normas y regulaciones aplicables.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://developers.oxylabs.io/help-center/es/preguntas-mas-populares/is-web-scraping-legal.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
