• The Edmunds API logo must directly link to http://www.edmunds.com/?id=apis.

Please contact Edmunds before publishing your application if it doesn’t easily support logos, or where Edmunds data are used in alternative media formats. We’ll give you alternative branding instructions.

Prior written consent from Edmunds is required to use Edmunds data without attribution.
