The TEPC Database:
Ownership and Access
The agreement signed between the TEPC Project funders (Government of
the Netherlands) and administrators (University of Cape Town) refers to
issues of ownership and access to the information produced by the
project.
Only one ‘authentic database’ should be available
at only
one place in the world.
The National Archives in the Netherlands offered to safeguard the data
produced by the Transcription Project. If the National Archives of
South Africa or Cape Archives Repository at a later stage have the
capability for storage and wish to take responsibility, then the
database would revert to them.
Not for profit. No parties that keep a copy of the dataset will use it
for commercial purposes. As the money was granted to this project
‘for the public good’ (not a commercial product),
the
University of Cape Town does not claim intellectual property.
Ownership is a matter of agreement. In Europe there is a Law on
Databases whereby one of the parties is recognized as the owner of the
database and it grants licences for use to other parties. The
Netherlands Government, as the financing party of the TEPC Project,
gives the databankenrecht to the Dutch National Archives.
The data will be free for use by researchers all over the world. The
only restrictions concern the privacy of living people and the security
of the State. Downloadable versions of the data and associated
information are posted on the TANAP website of the National Archives.
