Drafted with AI from the cited sources under the direction of UnGovr staff. UnGovr holds editorial responsibility for this page.
Article 21.1 permits reproducing a lawfully accessible work, including a press publication or its fragments, to carry out text and data mining. Copies made for that purpose may be kept only as long as needed for the mining. A rights holder, including a press publisher, can prohibit this use by giving clear notice in an appropriate manner.
A prohibition on the online use of publicly accessible works must be given in machine-readable form, including through metadata, which is the opt-out an aggregator's automated indexing must honor. A separate, non-waivable exception at Article 21.2 covers a research organization or a cultural heritage institution mining lawfully accessible works for scientific research, without that opt-out.
