ZocDoc API Branding Requirements

While the use of the ZocDoc API is free it is required that you adhere to the ZocDoc API Branding Requirements.

The amount of ZocDoc branding and linking to be displayed with your API implementation is outlined in Section 4 of the API Terms of Use. Examples of appropriate use are as follows.

ZocDoc API

All output displayed to the end user that is tied to the ZocDoc API must be accompanied by one of the following HTML snippets:

• The text "Find a Doctor in New York", which should link to http://www.zocdoc.com/primary-care-doctors/new-york
• The text "Find a Dentist in New York", which should link to http://www.zocdoc.com/dentists/new-york
• The text "Find a Dermatologist in New York" (when available), which should link to http://www.zocdoc.com/dermatologists/new-york

The following are examples of valid API uses, this is not a definitive list of valid uses but it should help give some context to legitimate ZocDoc API uses.

You may:

• Use ZocDoc data on a variety of platforms and devices including, but not limited to: Facebook, MySpace, iPhone, BlackBerry, Twitter, websites, blogs, navigation devices, mobile applications, widgets and/or other electronic media.
• Use ZocDoc data to provide users of your website or application with detailed information regarding a particular practice, neighborhood, or insurance. For example, you might run a location-based business or service (i.e. a hotel) and want to list the top healthcare practitioners nearby on your site.
• Use ZocDoc data to highlight a practitioner’s current rating and display some or all of the relevant reviews for that practitioner.

Acceptable Names of ZocDoc API applications

While we are very excited that you are interested in using the ZocDoc API, in order to protect the ZocDoc brand there are some restrictions on what applications that utilize the ZocDoc API can be called.

Domains that contain the word "ZocDoc" or any variations of "ZocDoc" may not utilize the ZocDoc API.

Applications may use the word "ZocDoc" in their name if it is used in a descriptive way and clearly identifies the ZocDoc site or features of the ZocDoc site. For instance, "ZocDocReview?" would not be acceptable since it does not use the word ZocDoc in a descriptive way whereas "ZocDoc Dentist Reviewer" would be acceptable since it describes what the application does.
