## Open Data Commons Open Database License (ODbL)
|
||
|
||
### Preamble
|
||
|
||
The Open Database License (ODbL) is a license agreement intended to
|
||
allow users to freely share, modify, and use this Database while
|
||
maintaining this same freedom for others. Many databases are covered by
|
||
copyright, and therefore this document licenses these rights. Some
|
||
jurisdictions, mainly in the European Union, have specific rights that
|
||
cover databases, and so the ODbL addresses these rights, too. Finally,
|
||
the ODbL is also an agreement in contract for users of this Database to
|
||
act in certain ways in return for accessing this Database.
|
||
|
||
Databases can contain a wide variety of types of content (images,
|
||
audiovisual material, and sounds all in the same database, for example),
|
||
and so the ODbL only governs the rights over the Database, and not the
|
||
contents of the Database individually. Licensors should use the ODbL
|
||
together with another license for the contents, if the contents have a
|
||
single set of rights that uniformly covers all of the contents. If the
|
||
contents have multiple sets of different rights, Licensors should
|
||
describe what rights govern what contents together in the individual
|
||
record or in some other way that clarifies what rights apply.
|
||
|
||
Sometimes the contents of a database, or the database itself, can be
|
||
covered by other rights not addressed here (such as private contracts,
|
||
trade mark over the name, or privacy rights / data protection rights
|
||
over information in the contents), and so you are advised that you may
|
||
have to consult other documents or clear other rights before doing
|
||
activities not covered by this License.
|
||
|
||
------
|
||
|
||
The Licensor (as defined below)
|
||
|
||
and
|
||
|
||
You (as defined below)
|
||
|
||
agree as follows:
|
||
|
||
### 1.0 Definitions of Capitalised Words
|
||
|
||
"Collective Database" – Means this Database in unmodified form as part
|
||
of a collection of independent databases in themselves that together are

|
||
computer network, or creating and Using a Produced Work, where no
|
||
transfer of a copy of the Database or a Derivative Database occurs.
|
||
"Contents" – The contents of this Database, which includes the
|
||
information, independent works, or other material collected into the
|

|
||
rights available in the relevant jurisdiction under Section 10.4.
|
||
|
||
"Derivative Database" – Means a database based upon the Database, and
|
||

"Re-utilisation" – means any form of making available to the public all
|
||
or a Substantial part of the Contents by the distribution of copies, by

||
Re-utilisation of insubstantial parts of the Contents may amount to the
|
||
Extraction or Re-utilisation of a Substantial part of the Contents.
|
||
|

|
||
|
||
### 2.0 What this License covers
|
||
|
||
2.1. Legal effect of this document. This License is:
|
||
|
||
a. A license of applicable copyright and neighbouring rights;
|
||
|
||
b. A license of the Database Right; and
|
||
|
||
c. An agreement in contract between You and the Licensor.
|
||
|
||
2.2 Legal rights covered. This License covers the legal rights in the
|
||
Database, including:
|
||
|
||
a. Copyright. Any copyright or neighbouring rights in the Database.
|
||
The copyright licensed includes any individual elements of the
|
||
Database, but does not cover the copyright over the Contents
|
||
independent of this Database. See Section 2.4 for details. Copyright
|
||
law varies between jurisdictions, but is likely to cover: the Database
|
||
model or schema, which is the structure, arrangement, and organisation
|
||
of the Database, and can also include the Database tables and table
|
||
indexes; the data entry and output sheets; and the Field names of
|
||
Contents stored in the Database;
|
||
|
||
b. Database Rights. Database Rights only extend to the Extraction and
|
||
Re-utilisation of the whole or a Substantial part of the Contents.
|
||
Database Rights can apply even when there is no copyright over the
|
||
Database. Database Rights can also apply when the Contents are removed
|
||
from the Database and are selected and arranged in a way that would
|
||
not infringe any applicable copyright; and
|
||
|
||
c. Contract. This is an agreement between You and the Licensor for
|
||
access to the Database. In return you agree to certain conditions of
|
||
use on this access as outlined in this License.
|
||
|
||
2.3 Rights not covered.
|
||
|
||
a. This License does not apply to computer programs used in the making
|
||
or operation of the Database;
|
||
|
||
b. This License does not cover any patents over the Contents or the
|
||
Database; and
|
||
|
||
c. This License does not cover any trademarks associated with the
|
||
Database.
|
||
|
||
2.4 Relationship to Contents in the Database. The individual items of
|
||
the Contents contained in this Database may be covered by other rights,
|
||
including copyright, patent, data protection, privacy, or personality
|
||
rights, and this License does not cover any rights (other than Database
|
||
Rights or in contract) in individual Contents contained in the Database.
|
||
For example, if used on a Database of images (the Contents), this
|
||
License would not apply to copyright over individual images, which could
|
||
have their own separate licenses, or one single license covering all of
|
||
the rights over the images.
|
||
|
||
### 3.0 Rights granted
|
||
|
||
3.1 Subject to the terms and conditions of this License, the Licensor
|
||
grants to You a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive, terminable (but
|
||
only under Section 9) license to Use the Database for the duration of
|
||
any applicable copyright and Database Rights. These rights explicitly
|
||
include commercial use, and do not exclude any field of endeavour. To
|
||
the extent possible in the relevant jurisdiction, these rights may be
|
||
exercised in all media and formats whether now known or created in the
|
||
future.
|
||
|
||
The rights granted cover, for example:
|
||
|
||
a. Extraction and Re-utilisation of the whole or a Substantial part of
|
||
the Contents;
|
||
|
||
b. Creation of Derivative Databases;
|
||
|
||
c. Creation of Collective Databases;
|
||
|
||
d. Creation of temporary or permanent reproductions by any means and
|
||
in any form, in whole or in part, including of any Derivative
|
||
Databases or as a part of Collective Databases; and
|
||
|
||
e. Distribution, communication, display, lending, making available, or
|
||
performance to the public by any means and in any form, in whole or in
|
||
part, including of any Derivative Database or as a part of Collective
|
||
Databases.
|
||
|
||
3.2 Compulsory license schemes. For the avoidance of doubt:
|
||
|
||
a. Non-waivable compulsory license schemes. In those jurisdictions in
|
||
which the right to collect royalties through any statutory or
|
||
compulsory licensing scheme cannot be waived, the Licensor reserves
|
||
the exclusive right to collect such royalties for any exercise by You
|
||
of the rights granted under this License;
|
||
|
||
b. Waivable compulsory license schemes. In those jurisdictions in
|
||
which the right to collect royalties through any statutory or
|
||
compulsory licensing scheme can be waived, the Licensor waives the
|
||
exclusive right to collect such royalties for any exercise by You of
|
||
the rights granted under this License; and,
|
||
|
||
c. Voluntary license schemes. The Licensor waives the right to collect
|
||
royalties, whether individually or, in the event that the Licensor is
|
||
a member of a collecting society that administers voluntary licensing
|
||
schemes, via that society, from any exercise by You of the rights
|
||
granted under this License.
|
||
|
||
3.3 The right to release the Database under different terms, or to stop
|
||
distributing or making available the Database, is reserved. Note that
|
||
this Database may be multiple-licensed, and so You may have the choice
|
||
of using alternative licenses for this Database. Subject to Section
|
||
10.4, all other rights not expressly granted by Licensor are reserved.
|
||
|
||
### 4.0 Conditions of Use
|
||
|
||
4.1 The rights granted in Section 3 above are expressly made subject to
|
||
Your complying with the following conditions of use. These are important
|
||
conditions of this License, and if You fail to follow them, You will be
|
||
in material breach of its terms.
|
||
|
||
4.2 Notices. If You Publicly Convey this Database, any Derivative
|
||
Database, or the Database as part of a Collective Database, then You
|
||
must:
|
||
|
||
a. Do so only under the terms of this License or another license
|
||
permitted under Section 4.4;
|
||
|
||
b. Include a copy of this License (or, as applicable, a license
|
||
permitted under Section 4.4) or its Uniform Resource Identifier (URI)
|
||
with the Database or Derivative Database, including both in the
|
||
Database or Derivative Database and in any relevant documentation; and
|
||
|
||
c. Keep intact any copyright or Database Right notices and notices
|
||
that refer to this License.
|
||
|
||
d. If it is not possible to put the required notices in a particular
|
||
file due to its structure, then You must include the notices in a
|
||
location (such as a relevant directory) where users would be likely to
|
||
look for it.
|
||
|
||
4.3 Notice for using output (Contents). Creating and Using a Produced
|
||
Work does not require the notice in Section 4.2. However, if you
|
||
Publicly Use a Produced Work, You must include a notice associated with
|
||
the Produced Work reasonably calculated to make any Person that uses,
|
||
views, accesses, interacts with, or is otherwise exposed to the Produced
|
||
Work aware that Content was obtained from the Database, Derivative
|
||
Database, or the Database as part of a Collective Database, and that it
|
||
is available under this License.
|
||
|
||
a. Example notice. The following text will satisfy notice under
|
||
Section 4.3:
|
||
|
||
Contains information from DATABASE NAME, which is made available
|
||
here under the Open Database License (ODbL).
|
||
|
||
DATABASE NAME should be replaced with the name of the Database and a
|
||
hyperlink to the URI of the Database. "Open Database License" should
|
||
contain a hyperlink to the URI of the text of this License. If
|
||
hyperlinks are not possible, You should include the plain text of the
|
||
required URI's with the above notice.
|
||
|
||
4.4 Share alike.
|
||
|
||
a. Any Derivative Database that You Publicly Use must be only under
|
||
the terms of:
|
||
|
||
i. This License;
|
||
|
||
ii. A later version of this License similar in spirit to this
|
||
License; or
|
||
|
||
iii. A compatible license.
|
||
|
||
If You license the Derivative Database under one of the licenses
|
||
mentioned in (iii), You must comply with the terms of that license.
|
||
|
||
b. For the avoidance of doubt, Extraction or Re-utilisation of the
|
||
whole or a Substantial part of the Contents into a new database is a
|
||
Derivative Database and must comply with Section 4.4.
|
||
|
||
c. Derivative Databases and Produced Works. A Derivative Database is
|
||
Publicly Used and so must comply with Section 4.4. if a Produced Work
|
||
created from the Derivative Database is Publicly Used.
|
||
|
||
d. Share Alike and additional Contents. For the avoidance of doubt,
|
||
You must not add Contents to Derivative Databases under Section 4.4 a
|
||
that are incompatible with the rights granted under this License.
|
||
|
||
e. Compatible licenses. Licensors may authorise a proxy to determine
|
||
compatible licenses under Section 4.4 a iii. If they do so, the
|
||
authorised proxy's public statement of acceptance of a compatible
|
||
license grants You permission to use the compatible license.
|
||
|
||
|
||
4.5 Limits of Share Alike. The requirements of Section 4.4 do not apply
|
||
in the following:
|
||
|
||
a. For the avoidance of doubt, You are not required to license
|
||
Collective Databases under this License if You incorporate this
|
||
Database or a Derivative Database in the collection, but this License
|
||
still applies to this Database or a Derivative Database as a part of
|
||
the Collective Database;
|
||
|
||
b. Using this Database, a Derivative Database, or this Database as
|
||
part of a Collective Database to create a Produced Work does not
|
||
create a Derivative Database for purposes of Section 4.4; and
|
||
|
||
c. Use of a Derivative Database internally within an organisation is
|
||
not to the public and therefore does not fall under the requirements
|
||
of Section 4.4.
|
||
|
||
4.6 Access to Derivative Databases. If You Publicly Use a Derivative
|
||
Database or a Produced Work from a Derivative Database, You must also
|
||
offer to recipients of the Derivative Database or Produced Work a copy
|
||
in a machine readable form of:
|
||
|
||
a. The entire Derivative Database; or
|
||
|
||
b. A file containing all of the alterations made to the Database or
|
||
the method of making the alterations to the Database (such as an
|
||
algorithm), including any additional Contents, that make up all the
|
||
differences between the Database and the Derivative Database.
|
||
|
||
The Derivative Database (under a.) or alteration file (under b.) must be
|
||
available at no more than a reasonable production cost for physical
|
||
distributions and free of charge if distributed over the internet.
|
||
|
||
4.7 Technological measures and additional terms
|
||
|
||
a. This License does not allow You to impose (except subject to
|
||
Section 4.7 b.) any terms or any technological measures on the
|
||
Database, a Derivative Database, or the whole or a Substantial part of
|
||
the Contents that alter or restrict the terms of this License, or any
|
||
rights granted under it, or have the effect or intent of restricting
|
||
the ability of any person to exercise those rights.
|
||
|
||
b. Parallel distribution. You may impose terms or technological
|
||
measures on the Database, a Derivative Database, or the whole or a
|
||
Substantial part of the Contents (a "Restricted Database") in
|
||
contravention of Section 4.74 a. only if You also make a copy of the
|
||
Database or a Derivative Database available to the recipient of the
|
||
Restricted Database:
|
||
|
||
i. That is available without additional fee;
|
||
|
||
ii. That is available in a medium that does not alter or restrict
|
||
the terms of this License, or any rights granted under it, or have
|
||
the effect or intent of restricting the ability of any person to
|
||
exercise those rights (an "Unrestricted Database"); and
|
||
|
||
iii. The Unrestricted Database is at least as accessible to the
|
||
recipient as a practical matter as the Restricted Database.
|
||
|
||
c. For the avoidance of doubt, You may place this Database or a
|
||
Derivative Database in an authenticated environment, behind a
|
||
password, or within a similar access control scheme provided that You
|
||
do not alter or restrict the terms of this License or any rights
|
||
granted under it or have the effect or intent of restricting the
|
||
ability of any person to exercise those rights.
|
||
|
||
4.8 Licensing of others. You may not sublicense the Database. Each time
|
||
You communicate the Database, the whole or Substantial part of the
|
||
Contents, or any Derivative Database to anyone else in any way, the
|
||
Licensor offers to the recipient a license to the Database on the same
|
||
terms and conditions as this License. You are not responsible for
|
||
enforcing compliance by third parties with this License, but You may
|
||
enforce any rights that You have over a Derivative Database. You are
|
||
solely responsible for any modifications of a Derivative Database made
|
||
by You or another Person at Your direction. You may not impose any
|
||
further restrictions on the exercise of the rights granted or affirmed
|
||
under this License.
|
||
|
||
### 5.0 Moral rights
|
||
|
||
5.1 Moral rights. This section covers moral rights, including any rights
|
||
to be identified as the author of the Database or to object to treatment
|
||
that would otherwise prejudice the author's honour and reputation, or
|
||
any other derogatory treatment:
|
||
|
||
a. For jurisdictions allowing waiver of moral rights, Licensor waives
|
||
all moral rights that Licensor may have in the Database to the fullest
|
||
extent possible by the law of the relevant jurisdiction under Section
|
||
10.4;
|
||
|
||
b. If waiver of moral rights under Section 5.1 a in the relevant
|
||
jurisdiction is not possible, Licensor agrees not to assert any moral
|
||
rights over the Database and waives all claims in moral rights to the
|
||
fullest extent possible by the law of the relevant jurisdiction under
|
||
Section 10.4; and
|
||
|
||
c. For jurisdictions not allowing waiver or an agreement not to assert
|
||
moral rights under Section 5.1 a and b, the author may retain their
|
||
moral rights over certain aspects of the Database.
|
||
|
||
Please note that some jurisdictions do not allow for the waiver of moral
|
||
rights, and so moral rights may still subsist over the Database in some
|
||
jurisdictions.
|
||
|
||
### 6.0 Fair dealing, Database exceptions, and other rights not affected
|
||
|
||
6.1 This License does not affect any rights that You or anyone else may
|
||
independently have under any applicable law to make any use of this
|
||
Database, including without limitation:
|
||
|
||
a. Exceptions to the Database Right including: Extraction of Contents
|
||
from non-electronic Databases for private purposes, Extraction for
|
||
purposes of illustration for teaching or scientific research, and
|
||
Extraction or Re-utilisation for public security or an administrative
|
||
or judicial procedure.
|
||
|
||
b. Fair dealing, fair use, or any other legally recognised limitation
|
||
or exception to infringement of copyright or other applicable laws.
|
||
|
||
6.2 This License does not affect any rights of lawful users to Extract
|
||
and Re-utilise insubstantial parts of the Contents, evaluated
|
||
quantitatively or qualitatively, for any purposes whatsoever, including
|
||
creating a Derivative Database (subject to other rights over the
|
||
Contents, see Section 2.4). The repeated and systematic Extraction or
|
||
Re-utilisation of insubstantial parts of the Contents may however amount
|
||
to the Extraction or Re-utilisation of a Substantial part of the
|
||
Contents.
|
||
|
||
### 7.0 Warranties and Disclaimer
|
||
|
||
7.1 The Database is licensed by the Licensor "as is" and without any
|
||
warranty of any kind, either express, implied, or arising by statute,
|
||
custom, course of dealing, or trade usage. Licensor specifically
|
||
disclaims any and all implied warranties or conditions of title,
|
||
non-infringement, accuracy or completeness, the presence or absence of
|
||
errors, fitness for a particular purpose, merchantability, or otherwise.
|
||
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties, so
|
||
this exclusion may not apply to You.
|
||
|
||
### 8.0 Limitation of liability
|
||
|
||
8.1 Subject to any liability that may not be excluded or limited by law,
|
||
the Licensor is not liable for, and expressly excludes, all liability
|
||
for loss or damage however and whenever caused to anyone by any use
|
||
under this License, whether by You or by anyone else, and whether caused
|
||
by any fault on the part of the Licensor or not. This exclusion of
|
||
liability includes, but is not limited to, any special, incidental,
|
||
consequential, punitive, or exemplary damages such as loss of revenue,
|
||
data, anticipated profits, and lost business. This exclusion applies
|
||
even if the Licensor has been advised of the possibility of such
|
||
damages.
|
||
|
||
8.2 If liability may not be excluded by law, it is limited to actual and
|
||
direct financial loss to the extent it is caused by proved negligence on
|
||
the part of the Licensor.
|
||
|
||
### 9.0 Termination of Your rights under this License
|
||
|
||
9.1 Any breach by You of the terms and conditions of this License
|
||
automatically terminates this License with immediate effect and without
|
||
notice to You. For the avoidance of doubt, Persons who have received the
|
||
Database, the whole or a Substantial part of the Contents, Derivative
|
||
Databases, or the Database as part of a Collective Database from You
|
||
under this License will not have their licenses terminated provided
|
||
their use is in full compliance with this License or a license granted
|
||
under Section 4.8 of this License. Sections 1, 2, 7, 8, 9 and 10 will
|
||
survive any termination of this License.
|
||
|
||
9.2 If You are not in breach of the terms of this License, the Licensor
|
