Can I change the licence or access restrictions of my published dataset?

Modified on Thu, 24 Oct at 2:09 PM

It is possible to change the licence or access restrictions of a dataset. Changes to a more open licence and fewer restrictions to accessing the data are always allowed. However, if you want to change to a more restrictive licence or limit the access to open files, please get in contact with DANS to evaluate the situation. Changes to the licence and/or access restrictions always lead to a new version of the dataset and you need to submit this new version to the DANS Data Processing Team who will curate and publish it.
