02Using the Data

Free to reuse

Everything here is licensed under Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 (CC BY 4.0). Copy it, change it, and use it commercially, as long as you credit DaveManuel.com with a link.

Addresses that do not change

Every file keeps the same address, for example /datasets/national-debt-daily.csv. Spreadsheets can import it directly (in Google Sheets: =IMPORTDATA("https://www.davemanuel.com/datasets/national-debt-daily.csv")) and stay current.

For developers and AI tools

A machine-readable list of every dataset, with column names, units, sources and dates, is at /datasets/index.json.

The underlying government figures are public records. The credit asks for the compilation: the cleaning, matching and the way the files are put together.

03How to Credit and Cite

A short credit is enough in an article or chart: "Data: DaveManuel.com," linked to the dataset's page or to this page. In a paper or report, name the dataset, DaveManuel.com, the original source and the date you downloaded it. For example:

DaveManuel.com, "National debt, daily," compiled from U.S. Treasury, Debt to the Penny data, downloaded November 12, 2026, https://www.davemanuel.com/datasets/national-debt-daily.csv.
