There was a pretty clear dev statement that automatically interfacing (scraping) with EveGate is forbidden and against TOS.
On the other hand I can understand you as a dev because it's outright stupid that EveGate itself does not use the APIs but obviously something different itself which even offers additional functionality over the regular APIs.

Yes but it was bull, read the TOS, there's nothing like that in there.
I'm not sure which TOS and Eula you read. And I know that both of them are stupid anyways. But they DO both have clauses that rule something like that out. In fact the TOS actually forbids ANY third party-tools.
I know this isn't handled by CCP this way, but this is a new kind of interfacing so I'd try to get an OK from CCP before releasing such thing.
There are at least 5 clauses in TOS and EULA that likely forbid this concrete tool like 7A2, 7A4, 14, 21.

The Website terms of use as linked at the bottom of EVEgate. As stated in 14. of that agreement "This Agreement constitutes the full agreement between you and us related to the use of this Web Site", therefore other terms do not apply. I assume the clauses you referenced are in the TOS for the game?
I'm no layer, but:
A) Website terms of services are void in europe anyways, so they don't matter.
B) The terms are for the website and (possibly) not eve-gate.
So yes I am talking about the game EULA and TOS. Both are legally binding and they refer (in the points I mentioned) to a game *environment* which may well include eve-gate.
Besides that handing out your logindata to a third-party site is forbidden and likely just stupid.
