DANS supports Open Science, and encourages depositors to make their data available \u2018As Open as Possible, as Closed as Necessary\u2019.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>DANS offers different licences for depositing datasets in the DANS archive.<\/span><\/p>\n

For users of the Data Stations, an open licence such as <\/span>CC0 1.0<\/span><\/a> or <\/span>CC-BY 4.0<\/span><\/a> can be selected for datasets that are published Open Access. At the bottom of this page you can find a list of all the available open licences in the Data Stations.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

If one or more files in the dataset require restricted access, these can be individually indicated and terms of access can be specified. The <\/span>DANS licence<\/span><\/a> (.pdf) is typically used for Restricted Access datasets. In the predecessor of the Data Stations, <\/span>EASY<\/span><\/a>, the <\/span>DANS licence<\/span><\/a> (.pdf) sets out the conditions of use for datasets in the Open Access for registered users and Restricted Access categories. Those conditions apply to you as soon as you can view or have downloaded files from datasets in these categories.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
