What the site offers
globaltraffic.earth is a free site that shows international trade on a 3D globe and in reading pages by country, product, pair of countries, maritime chokepoint and trade dependence. No registration or account is needed to use it. By visiting and using the site you accept these terms; if you do not agree, please do not use it.
The data is informational
The figures, rankings, routes and maps are general information. Many of them are our own estimates: the split by transport mode, the sea routes and what passes through each maritime chokepoint are not measurements. The About page explains how each piece of data is built and where it comes from.
We do our best to keep it correct, but we do not guarantee that it is complete, up to date or free of errors. It is not financial, business, legal or any other kind of advice, and we are not responsible for decisions made from it. The site is provided “as is”, without warranties, to the extent the law allows. If you find an error, please write to us through the contact page.
Licenses and reuse
The data we build ourselves (totals, rankings, series and estimates) is published under CC BY 4.0: it can be copied and reused, including for commercial purposes, crediting globaltraffic.earth as the source. The third-party data we use (CEPII BACI, the World Bank, Climate TRACE, Natural Earth and others) keeps its own license and conditions; the full list is on the About page. For other uses, write to us.
Acceptable use
You are free to browse, link to and share the site. You may not use it in a way that degrades the service for others, for example with mass automated downloads (scraping) or automated traffic that overloads the site, nor try to breach its security. If you need a large volume of data, please write to us first.
Third-party advertising
The content pages may show Google AdSense ads. The ads are served by Google, not by us, and we do not endorse what they advertise. How cookies are used and how to choose your consent is explained on the privacy page.
Links to other sites
The site links to the sources of the data and to other pages we do not control. We are not responsible for their content or their policies.
Changes to these terms
We may update these terms when the site changes. The date of the last update is at the bottom of this page; continuing to use the site after a change means accepting the version in force.
Governing law
The site is made and maintained by Gabriel Maglia, in Argentina. These terms are governed by the laws of the Argentine Republic.
