Здравствуй, Микаил!

Nice to see the recent progress in open data policy in Russia. We’ve had some advances in Brazil recently as well.

What I’m most curious about in Russia’s open data are the standard conditions of use. My understanding of the Russian language is quite limited, but I think I can take from paragraph 13:

13 . В соответствии с Типовыми условиями Пользователи открытых данных не ограничены в их использовании в некоммерческих и коммерческих целях.

that commercial use is allowed, is that interpretation corret?

Was compliance with the Open Definition taken into consideration, when writing the conditions of use?

Спасибо!

Good day, Augusto @herrmann!

You are right, open data users are not restricted to use open data for commercial as well as non-commercial purposes.

I think yes, because it is quite similar to the meaning of open data.
