Hi @dennis
Thanks for clarification. It is sensible to add these clauses especially when dealing with statistical data whose provenance, interpretation and use obviously need to adhere to statistical quality standards.
The reason I brought this up is that we see clauses in other licenses (e.g. Belgium’s company register, cc’ing @barthanssens here).
Here you can see that the license terms say the data “may not be altered”. We interpret this as a clear restriction of modifiability, but still there is room for interpretation. Does this refer to the integrity of a data element. For example does it want to prevent that we willingly change company addresses and publish incorrect information.
I think without more clarity these clauses may create confusion and ambiguity and deter people from using the data.
What are your experiences or your ideas to this?
Best
Danny
