How is Citymapper not breaking the Google Maps Terms of Service?
<p>Having read the <a href="https://developers.google.com/maps/terms#section_10_4" rel="nofollow">Google Maps Terms of Service</a>, I don't understand how <a href="https://citymapper.com/" rel="nofollow">Citymapper</a> is not breaking section 10.4.c: "Restrictions on Unfair Exploitation of the Service and Content."</p>

<p>Surely they must be using the Google Maps API as part of their service, and Citymapper is an alternative to using Google Maps.</p>

<p>The <a href="https://global-api.citymapper.com/resourceproxy/tos.html" rel="nofollow">TOS for Citymapper</a> states that</p>

<blockquote>
  <p>We use third parties, such as Transport for London, Metropolitan
  Transport Authority and other transport agencies, Apple, <strong>Google</strong>,
  OpenStreetMap, Foursquare, Yelp to provide data on which the transport
  information and recommendations in the app are based. We and our
  partners try to make sure that the data is correct and up-to-date...</p>
</blockquote>

<p>So they must have agreements with those companies and government entities to access the data.</p>
