Maximise your content's value with data licensing

Data licensing refers to the legal agreements that govern how data can be used, shared, and redistributed by others. It establishes the rights and permissions granted to users of the data, specifying what the user is allowed to do with the data. The key aspects of data licensing include:  

• Defining the intellectual property rights and ownership of the data
• Granting permissions for use, redistribution, modification, and creation of derivative works
• Specifying requirements like attribution to the original creator
• Allowing or restricting commercial use of the data
• Determining whether the data can be sub-licensed or shared with others

Licensing your news stories archive data for AI model training will allow you to open up an additional revenue stream by selling it directly to AI companies. Simultaneously, licensing offers you control of your content and reduces the chance of having your content scrapped for free. For more information on the Valyu licensing platform, check out our Product page.
