Data governance, handling third-party data

Utrecht University provides an overview of possible legal instruments and agreements that might be necessary to establish prior to data collection. The information is provided in a user friendly approach departing from the perspective of different stakeholders perspective: data subject, third party and data reuser. It then provides extended details of what it instrument entails with further guidance, templates or examples for each case.

This Open Source tool developed by the Institute of Formal and Applied Linguistics of Charles University guides the user through a decision tree approach to select a license for their research output. The tool considers scenarios where the user does not own copyright or similar rights in some of all of the constitutive parts of the dataset and provides further guidance based on whether those elements are clearly licensed or not.
