The fine print

License note
Destatis's Open Data page puts statistical data under Data Licence Germany 2.0 and links the official text at govdata.de/dl-de/by-2-0. The GENESIS catalogue methods work without a key; table and data methods need access data. Signal Lab links only.

Verdict

An official German statistics source for spreadsheets and table metadata, alongside destatis-press-rss (news only). Licence: DL-DE-BY-2.0: the Open Data page says "The statistical data can be reused in compliance with the Data Licence Germany 2.0 conditions." and the API page says "GENESIS-Online can be used free of charge and without registering under the "Data Licence Germany - Namensnennung - Version 2.0"." GENESIS table and data methods returned 401 without access data, so they are not the card link. Rate limits: Not stated. Signal Lab links only.
