I am creating a website that serves as a directory of companies within a niche industry. In my site I would like to provide info on each of the companies and was wondering if it was ok for me to use info from a company's about page. For example, crunchbase does something similar: [https://www.crunchbase.com/app/search/companies](https://www.crunchbase.com/app/search/companies) If you click on one of the companies you will see a Company Details section that is sometimes a identical to the company's about page. It is not clear to me whether this would get me into any trouble as I would be referencing the company as well. Is it ok for me to copy information from about pages?
