Clarification about the data licence - CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 or not #1

Closed tvercaut closed 1 year ago

Thanks for sharing this work. Not sure if this is the best place to ask questions about the dataset but I thought GitHub would be an easier reference for others than private emails.

Looking at the EpiSurg dataset I can see the custom "Data use agreement" but the landing page also has a "CC BY-NC-SA 4.0" badge as shown below: https://doi.org/10.5522/04/9996158.v1

The README in the zip file refers to the "Data use agreement" but doesn't mention CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 or any other restriction.

Could you clarify if CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 applies and if not maybe ask UCL to remove the badge?

Hi, @tvercaut. Sorry for the delay, I've been on holiday. I will investigate this and get back to you. Are you interested in using the dataset?

fepegar commented 2 years ago

@rsparks could you please look into this?

fepegar commented 2 years ago

Maybe @HChughtai could also provide some advice.

HChughtai commented 2 years ago

Hi @fepegar - not the remit of the team I'm part of, but I believe that license is chosen by the uploaders when they create an entry on the UCL Research Data Repository. You may want to contact the helpdesk email address on that page for clarification and for modification if you can't do so yourself directly.

Thanks @fepegar, yes we have been discussing about using this dataset with Rachel and @aaronkujawa. I just need to make sure it won't be a problem in terms of licensing.

@fepegar @rsparks : Would you have any update on this issue?

res191 commented 1 year ago

@tvercaut, sorry for the delay in response I am not @rsparks on here so did not receive the original query. I am afraid this dataset is currently available only for non-commercial purposes so the CC-BY-NC-SA-4.0 does apply. Happy to have a more detailed conversation to potentially seek a more permissive license if you would like to use this for commercial purposes.

fepegar commented 1 year ago

Oops. Sorry, Rachel!

tvercaut commented 1 year ago

Thanks Rachel. I would suggest clarifying this on the landing page under "Data use agreement" and also highlight this in the zipped dataset itself. The option of a permissive licence would of course be interesting. I'll catch-up offline on this.
