What this law does

Drafted with AI from the cited sources under the direction of UnGovr staff. UnGovr holds editorial responsibility for this page.

No authorization from an intellectual-property rights holder is needed for reproductions of legitimately accessible works made for text and data mining purposes, per Article 67(1) of Real Decreto-ley 24/2021's own Fourth Book. That general exception does not apply where rights holders have expressly reserved the use of their works through machine-readable means or other adequate means, per Article 67(3), which is the opt-out.

A separate, non-waivable exception in Article 67(4) covers research organizations and cultural-heritage institutions carrying out text and data mining for scientific research, without the opt-out that limits the general exception.
