 ====== ​Licensing ​Data copyright, licensing, ​and citing data citation ​======
 
 ===== How Introduction ===== 
 Copyright, licensing, and citation are relevant ​to share all creative works, including datasets, visualisations,​ and products created by Open Development,​ as well as all other data and information that is published ​by specifying ​Open Development. This is a license ​complicated topic. This document outlines these concepts very generally, and how to apply them in the context of Open Development. 
 ===== Copyright ​===== 
 (from Copyright refers to the [[http://​opendatahandbook.org/​|Open Data Handbook]] ​legal rights of the creator of a product to publish, distribute ​and [[http://​opendefinitionuse this product. org/|Open Definition]]These rights belong to a group of rights that are referred to as "​intellectual property"​. Copyright is a legal concept that is treated differently in different jurisdictions. There is no such thing as an "​international copyright",​ although there is an international convention to which some countries (not including the Mekong Countries) have signed on.
 
 In most jurisdictions there are intellectual property rights in data that prevent third-parties ​Copyright is different ​from using, reusing and redistributing data without explicit permission. Even in places where the existence of rights is uncertain, it is important to apply a license simply for the sake of clarity. So, for "​open"​ data, it is advisable to use a licensefor dedication to the public domain or share-alike (plus attribution),​ through Creative Commons or Open Data Commons. 
 ====Copyright options on CKAN====

 ====Copyright of products not created by Open Development==== 
  
 Different products may or may not be copyrighted.  
  
 **Laws, policies, and administrative documents in official languages*Domain* generally should not be, although the translations might be. International conventions and policies are generally not copyrighted. If republishing these types of documents on Open Development,​ copyright should be presumed no.

To find information on copyright, you may need to review the website, the documents themselves, and any documentation titled "​terms ​of applicationuse", i"​disclaimer",​ "​legal",​ and other similar documents. eThere may also be relevant copyright and intellectual property laws in your jurisdiction that you can review if you want a better general understanding of how copyright works in your jurisdiction.what type  
  
 If all of material this license should/the above have been reviewed, including laws, and it is still unclear as to whether a document has copyright or not, "​unclear copyright" ​can be applied ​selected. However, this circumstance is unlikely ​to arise frequently.Note  
  
 There is an option to select "to be determined"​. This option should only be selected ​if you the copyright details of the dataset ​are looking for an open still being determined. This option allows other users to know that more work is going to be done on this dataset and that it should not yet be published and made public. Datasets where "to be determined"​ has been selected will not be made public until this option has been changed. 
  
  
 =====Licensing===== 
 (from the [[http://​opendatahandbook.org/​|Open Data Handbook]] and [[http://​opendefinition.org/​|Open Definition]])  
  
 A product may be copyrighted,​ but the creator may have decided to license ​for softwaretheir right to publish, please see distribute, and use the product to other people. There are some licenses that are purchased, such as those in the traditional publishing, movie, and music industries. These do not conform with the Open Source ​Definitionconformant ​. There are other licenses ​that are given freely.  
  Some of these licenses conform with the principles set forth in the Open Definition, including the following: ​ * **BY** = requires attribution

 All datasets and data products created by Open Development are licensed under a [[https://​creativecommons.org/​licenses/​by-sa/​4.0/​|Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International License]].  
 ====Licensing of products not created by Open Development==== 
 Not all products will have licensing specified. The presumption for all products not created by Open Development is that there is no license unless specified. If licensing information cannot be found, then it should be assumed that this document does not have a specified license, and this option should be chosen on CKAN. 
  
 A product may be copyrighted,​ with all rights reserved, and no licensing information provided. In this case, this document is not shareable on CKAN. 
  
 A product may be copyrighted,​ with all rights reserved, with no licensing information provided, but with rights modified by additional access and use constraints,​ terms of use, or other similar documentation. You will need to check the document or the main website for this information. If no licensing information has been provided, but the document is permitted to be reused and republished if certain requirements are followed, then choose the option of "no license specified"​ on CKAN, and indicate the access and use constraints in the relevant CKAN metadata field. For archived webpages, refer the user back to the original webpage to see access and use constraints and provide the original URL. 
 =====Citation===== 
 Citing references used is good research practice. It is also referred to as "​attribution"​ and is part of an open, transparent approach. In some cases, it is also required by a particular license, term of use, or access and use constraint. Different licenses and requirements may have a particular preferred way of citation. However, even if a "​preferred"​ form is proposed by a product/​producer,​ it is not always required and it is usually sufficient to use the OD preferred form, which is discussed [[editorial_style|here]]. 
 ==== Preferred form of attribution of products created by Open Development ==== 
  
 All products created by Open Development are covered by the Creative Commons Share-Alike Attribution license ([[https://​creativecommons.org/​licenses/​by-sa/​3.0/​|CC BY-SA 3.0]]). This means that any use of these products requires attribution to Open Development,​ a link to the license, and an indication if any changes were made. It can be done in any reasonable manner, so long as it does not in any way suggest that Open Development endorses either the reuser or the new product. If reuser remixes, transforms, or builds on the content produced or generated by Open Development,​ all of these new products must be redistributed under the same license as the original.
