How do I set terms of use for my dataset?

Modified on Thu, 13 Apr, 2023 at 3:04 PM


When you create a dataset, the Creative Commons 0 (CC0 1.0 waiver) is automatically selected.
It is possible to adjust the Terms of Use. Go to the ‘Terms’ tab on your dataset page and click ‘Edit Terms requirements’. 
Select your license from the drop-down menu. If you don’t want to use a Creative Commons license for your dataset, choose for the ‘Custom Dataset Terms’ option from the list. New metadata fields will appear to fill in your terms. The metadata field ‘Terms of Use’ will become a required field.
