  Did you do some research of the legality of this?

    I did some research, but did not found enough conclusive evidence whether it is legal or not. So if I receive a claim from Google legal team, I will take the site down.

      Could you please point out the exact URL you are crawling? Love to match that with robots.txt file. I'm all for improving publicly available data.
