I'm thinking the app would have to store the present status on its server in order to know of a status change. But isn't storing profile data server-side a violation of FB TOS?
- jarin 16y agoYou can store data for up to 24 hours, so all you have to do is look for a change on two consecutive days. Edit: That was the old policy, the new one lets you store it forever as long as you try to keep it up to date.
- zaidf 16y agoSo essentially it is ok to store data infinitely as long as you are updating it every 24hrs?
- jarin 16y agoEr wait, that was an old policy. Here's the new one: "You may cache data you receive through use of the Facebook API in order to improve your application’s user experience, but you should try to keep the data up to date. This permission does not give you any rights to such data."
- cycojesus 16y ago"should try" sounds pretty vague and unenforceable.
