On third-party data

Most of what you see here is public-sector data, freely reusable with attribution. Two sources — Optimal Blue and Freddie Mac — publish copyrighted indices that we reproduce under their citation requirement, with their disclaimers shown. Those series are excluded from any bulk download or data export, because citation permits publication, not redistribution.

Using our data

Figures derived from public-sector sources may be reused freely; please link back so readers can check the provenance. Figures from the two copyrighted sources above should be taken from the original providers rather than from us.
