Who owns the data?

What sort of agreement do we need to enter into before using it?

UCSF

UCSF includes this on their web page at: http://opendata.profiles.ucsf.edu/xml-v1.html

Requirements

  1. Contact us to tell us you're using our APIs — so we don't break your app by mistake
  2. Every web page including Profiles data must acknowledge use, e.g. web pages about individual researchers should link back to Profiles like this `<a href="[Profiles URL]" title="Go to UCSF Profiles, powered by CTSI" rel="me">View [Insert Name Here]'s research profile</a>` — but see the requirements page for more details and HTML examples
  3. If you're caching results, refresh weekly (worst case: monthly), to prevent outdated data
  • In what sense are these "requirements"?
  • Will we indeed comply with point 2 by adding that link to each of our search result pages?
  • Will we negotiate a different agreement before going live with their data?
