Dex (ddosdex) | 1 comments I am building a reader analysis tool where a user can OAuth into my app with their Goodreads account and see fun little statistics about their reading and reviewing habits.

This is a fun and free tool which is not a commercial project on its own, but will be owned by a larger organization which is a commercial business.

To accomplish this, I also need to store the OAuth-ed user's ratings and some info about the books they have rated. I will need to store this for > 24 hrs so I don't have to keep re-calculating the statistics from scratch every time new data is added.

I'd like to know whether I need written consent for something like this. If so, who should I reach out to for this written consent? I contacted support@goodreads.com and they re-directed me back to this group.
