Pollen values

Pollen values on AllergyNest come from the Google Pollen API. They belong to Google and its licensors. You may read them on AllergyNest, but you may not copy, reuse, republish or redistribute them. Our Terms of Use set out the rules.

US government data

We build our list of metro areas from US Census Bureau files and from CDC data published at data.cdc.gov. Works of the US federal government are generally in the public domain in the United States. If you reuse this data, take it from the agency’s own site, follow any terms shown there, and credit the agency it comes from.

We use these names to identify or credit them. Their appearance on AllergyNest doesn’t mean they are affiliated with us or endorse us.
