Open Government Licence – Toronto
Our live data comes from the City of Toronto's Municipal Licensing & Standards business licence dataset, published under the Open Government Licence – Toronto. The licence lets anyone copy, adapt and use the information commercially, on condition that they acknowledge the source. When you display or share information derived from it, include:
Contains information licensed under the Open Government Licence – Toronto.
The licence doesn't let you suggest the City endorses you or your use of the information, and it doesn't cover the City's logos or crests. FileSignal is independent and is not affiliated with the City of Toronto.
Every dataset
