1. Service description
FastDOL provides access to aggregated federal workplace enforcement data through a free public website and a REST API. Data is sourced from publicly available government records — OSHA enforcement and injury data, WHD wage enforcement, MSHA mine safety, EPA environmental compliance, FMCSA motor carrier data, NLRB labor relations, OFLC visa / labor certification, OSHA Form 300A (ITA) employer self-reported injury rates, BLS industry benchmarks, SAM.gov exclusions, CMS nursing-home records, SEC enforcement and financial disclosures, CPSC and NHTSA recalls.
The website is free for unlimited interactive search. Programmatic API access is available under a free tier (25 API requests / month) or under paid subscription plans for higher volumes — see the pricing page and Section 6 below.
2. Data disclaimer
FastDOL data is derived from publicly available federal enforcement records and is provided “as is” without warranty of any kind, express or implied. FastDOL does not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or timeliness of the data.
Any computed risk scores or tiers are produced by FastDOL using a proprietary methodology and do not represent official government assessments. See the methodology page for the formula and known limitations.
Employer profiles are matched across multiple federal agencies using name normalization and location data (state, ZIP code). Matching errors may occur, and records from one employer may be incorrectly attributed to another. To report a record you believe is misattributed, use the “Report incorrect data” link on any employer page or email corrections@fastdol.com.
Self-reported injury rates (DART, TRIR) are based on employer submissions to OSHA and may be subject to underreporting. This service does not constitute legal, insurance, or professional advice.
3. Acceptable use
You may use FastDOL for lawful business purposes including risk assessment, compliance monitoring, journalism, academic research, and due diligence. You may not:
- Systematically scrape, download, or reproduce the database in whole or in part outside the documented API quotas.
- Resell, redistribute, or sublicense FastDOL data without written permission.
- Use the service to discriminate against individuals or harass employers.
- Circumvent rate limits, monthly quotas, or other technical restrictions.
- Share API keys or allow unauthorized third parties to access your account.
- Use the service for any unlawful purpose.
4. API usage and key revocation
API access is subject to per-key monthly quotas and per-IP rate limits as documented on the docs page. Exceeding either limit returns a 429; quotas reset on the first of each calendar month.
FastDOL reserves the right to revoke API keys, suspend accounts, or terminate access at any time for violation of these terms — including excessive automated scraping, circumvention of rate limits, or any activity that degrades the service for other users. We will make reasonable efforts to notify you before or promptly after any such action.
5. Intellectual property
While the underlying government enforcement data is in the public domain, the FastDOL database — including entity resolution, scoring, aggregation, and presentation — constitutes a compilation protected by copyright. You may use API results for your internal business purposes but may not reproduce the database or create a competing product from FastDOL data.
6. Subscriptions and billing
The interactive website is free to use, along with a free API tier. FastDOL also offers paid monthly subscription plans (Starter and Growth) that raise your API-call and PDF-report quotas. Current prices and included quotas are shown on the pricing page.
Automatic renewal. Paid plans are monthly subscriptions that renew automatically at the then-current price at the start of each billing period, and continue renewing until you cancel. By subscribing, you authorize FastDOL and its payment processor to charge your payment method the recurring monthly fee, plus any applicable taxes, on each renewal date without further action by you.
Payment processing.Payments are processed by Stripe, our third-party payment processor. FastDOL does not store your full card number. You agree to Stripe's terms and represent that you are authorized to use the payment method you provide.
Cancellation. You may cancel at any time from the billing portal linked on your account page. Cancellation takes effect at the end of your current paid billing period: you keep paid access until that date, after which the account reverts to the free tier. There is no cancellation fee.
Refunds. Except where required by law, subscription fees are non-refundable, and canceling stops future charges rather than refunding the current period. We may, at our sole discretion, issue a refund for a duplicate charge or a demonstrable billing error — email support@fastdol.com.
Plan changes. You may upgrade or downgrade between paid plans from the billing portal. Stripe prorates the dollar difference automatically; your usage counters are not reset when you change plans within a billing period.
Failed payments. If a renewal charge fails, we will retry it over a short dunning window. If payment ultimately does not succeed, the subscription is canceled and the account reverts to the free tier.
Price changes. We may change subscription prices. Any change applies to your next renewal after we give reasonable advance notice to the email on your account; continuing to use a paid plan after a price change takes effect constitutes acceptance of the new price.
Enterprise and custom licensing. Commercial volumes, bulk export, licensed redistribution, or other custom arrangements are handled separately under a written agreement — email ben@fastdol.com or see enterprise licensing.
7. Advertising
FastDOL does not serve third-party display advertising and runs no ad-network cookies. If we introduce advertising in the future, we will update these terms and our privacy policy before any ad network loads, and any such script would be gated on cookie consent.

9. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, FastDOL shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of the service, including but not limited to damages arising from data inaccuracies, entity matching errors, service interruptions, or reliance on risk scores or enforcement data for business decisions.
In no event shall FastDOL's total aggregate liability for any and all claims arising out of or related to these terms or your use of the service exceed the total amount you paid to FastDOL in the twelve (12) months immediately preceding the event giving rise to the claim. If you have not paid any fees to FastDOL, FastDOL's total aggregate liability shall not exceed fifty dollars ($50).
10. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless FastDOL, its owner, and its affiliates from and against any third-party claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or related to: (a) your use of the service; (b) your reliance on FastDOL data, risk scores, or analytics for business, underwriting, employment, contracting, or investment decisions; (c) your violation of these terms; or (d) your violation of any applicable law or regulation.
