Developers · Effective July 13, 2026
API terms
These terms apply to The New Jersey Courier developer keys and versioned developer endpoints in addition to the general Terms and Developer Agreement.
License and attribution
A valid key grants a limited, revocable, nonexclusive right to retrieve permitted data for the registered application. Do not imply endorsement, remove story attribution, republish full reporting beyond a lawful license, or use content to create misleading or competing archives.
Security and limits
Keep keys server-side where possible, rotate compromised keys and never share a key across unrelated applications. Default limits are 60 requests per minute and 10,000 per day. You may not pool keys, disguise traffic, bypass controls, probe non-public routes or resell access.
Safety and change
Do not use the API for surveillance, discrimination, harassment, emergency dispatch or automated high-impact decisions. Versions may be deprecated with reasonable notice; access may be suspended immediately for security, legal or abuse risks.
