Hello,

As part of a project, we wanted to be able to retrieve tweets in real-time related to the keywords “last night i dreamt that” using the Twitter API and store them in our database. We want to be able to perform research on the dream related tweets and develop statistics.
Please let us know if it is ok to store the twitter data in our database.

Thanks.

This is generally OK according to the rules, provided you do not distribute that data and otherwise abide by the rules of the road.

Thank you for the quick response.
We do not plan to display the individual tweets from our database.
We only plan to display the statistics and analysis that we generate from the stored tweets on the website.
So this is ok right?

Thanks.

It sounds OK to me, provided all other aspects of the developer terms are followed.
