Amazon API Terms of Service – Pricing Disclaimer?
-
Under the Amazon API TOS, are we meant to display a price disclaimer or have I got this wrong ?
It seems that unless are prices are updated every hour, a price disclaimer required. Even if the process updates prices every hour, it may still be better to put a disclaimer, just in case.
If that’s the case, is there any way to add this text? I have another Amazon plugin that allows for customizable text disclaimers and the plugin has a shortcode for the date/time stamp.

(o) You will include a date/time stamp adjacent to your display of pricing or availability information on your application if you obtain Product Advertising Content from a Data Feed, or if you call the Product Advertising API or refresh the Product Advertising Content displayed on your application less frequently than hourly. However, during the same day on which you requested and refreshed the pricing and availability information displayed on your application, you may omit the date portion of the stamp. Examples of acceptable messaging include:
Amazon.com Price: $32.77 (as of 01/07/2008 14:11 PST – Details)
Amazon.com Price: $32.77 (as of 14:11 PST – More info)Additionally, you must either include the following disclaimer adjacent to the pricing or availability information or provide it via a hyperlink, popup box, scripted popup, or other similar method: “Product prices and availability are accurate as of the date/time indicated and are subject to change. Any price and availability information displayed on [relevant Amazon Site(s), as applicable] at the time of purchase will apply to the purchase of this product.” In the above examples, “Details” and “More info” would provide a method for the end user to read the disclaimer.
