What is web scraping? In simple words, web scraping (also called web harvesting) is an automated process of collecting publicly available information from targeted websites. Instead of collecting data manually, web scrapers are used to acquire a vast amount of information in seconds.

The web scraping process involves three main steps:
-Retrieving content from the targeted website
-Extracting required data from the content
-Storing parsed data

There are various scraping use cases, such as market research, brand protection, travel fare aggregation, price monitoring, SEO monitoring, review monitoring, and online media monitoring.

Even though web scraping activity isn't illegal and does not have a clear law or regulation to address its application, it's crucial to comply with all other laws and regulations regarding the source targets or data itself. For instance, you have to make sure that you are not breaching laws that may be applicable to copyrighted data and everything that can be considered creative work.
