Web scraping is becoming essential for e‑commerce.

In today’s highly competitive digital economy, automated data collection (such as monitoring competitor pricing, stock levels, and customer reviews) is critical for making informed strategic decisions.

‍

Regulatory clarity now exists.

France’s data protection authority (CNIL), in its June 2025 guidelines on AI and “legitimate interest,” clarified when scraping is permitted. It emphasized that scraping is legal if conducted proportionally, with clear objectives, limited to non-sensitive data, respecting opt-out signals like robots.txt, and ensuring transparency and protection of personal data.

Piloterr’s WebUnlocker: overcoming technical barriers.

As websites increasingly deploy anti‑bot systems (e.g., Cloudflare, CAPTCHAs, fingerprinting), gathering data at scale becomes technically challenging. Piloterr’s platform (especially its flagship tool, WebUnlocker) handles these technical hurdles by managing proxy rotation, realistic browser rendering, CAPTCHA solving, and anti-bot circumvention, allowing stable and human-like access even to protected sites.

‍

Balance between power and compliance.

While WebUnlocker enhances data extraction capabilities, companies must still define compliant uses, limit data collection to what’s necessary, document sources, remove sensitive information, and respect opt-out mechanisms. The combination of technical strength and legal responsibility provides a reliable foundation for leveraging scraping strategies in e‑commerce.
