⚖️ Is It Legal to Scrape Product Hunt?

This scraper is designed to be ethical and only extracts publicly available data from the website. However, you should be aware that your results will contain personal data (e.g., founder names and emails). Personal data is protected by regulations like GDPR, and you should not scrape it unless you have a legitimate reason to do so. If you are unsure, it's best to consult with a legal professional.
