There’s almost no chance of getting banned for this. Spotify themselves provides the APIs that let you get metadata about your playlists and tracks, and setting up a developer account with them is petty easy.
It’s moreso a concern of Spotify eventually limiting/ratelimiting that data retrieval in the future… which is why you should back up now while you can!
