There is no such thing as public data that is private. If it is in the web for public consummation, the site has no right to forbid working with the data and re-using it elsewhere. There just is no means for them.
That does not say that one has the right to publish the exact same content. Then it becomes a copyright issue. But remixing it into another site, like yours? You have every right.
Note: That might depend where you live. Legislation might differ, US' fair use is a different concept than germanys public data concept, for example.
