Attribution
Free keys must credit RecallDB wherever the data is shown.
The rule
Show the words Data from RecallDB with a link to https://recalldb.app, on or next to every place you show data from the API (a page, a screen in an app, a report, a chat answer). Every response repeats this in its attribution field.

- A web page listing recalls for a model: a line under the list, "Data from RecallDB", linked.
- A mobile app: a "Data from RecallDB" link on the recalls screen or in About, reachable in two taps.
- A chatbot or AI agent: name the source in the answer ("According to RecallDB, from NHTSA recall 21V215000"), and link to the official URL from the response.
- A PDF or email: the same words and the URL in text.
Also
- Keep the agency name and official link each response gives, so readers can check the source.
- Do not present the data as your own or as coming from an agency.
- Tell readers to confirm with the manufacturer or the agency.
