This website provides an open marketplace as it is defined by the SSHOC grant agreement.

The Austrian Academy of Sciences does not take responsibility for the nature, accuracy, entirety or quality of the provided information. In the case of links to websites of other media owners, whose content the OEAW is neither directly nor indirectly responsible for, the OEAW does not assume liability for their content and excludes any liability in this case.

• License for source code – The license for the source code of the SSH Open Marketplace is Apache License 2.0. More information about this license can be found here.
• License for content – This website collects its content from various sources with different reuse policies. Most of the time, catalogues where metadata were collected presented clear licences and you can always find information on sources on every item of our catalogue.

Contributors and Moderators of the SSH Open Marketplace enrich the metadata, add new information and links to it.

We are currently looking for the best licensing framework to support our model: we aim to ensure wide distribution and reuse of our data, and to avoid attribution stacking or license stacking, but we do consider attribution to be an essential information to be provided by data aggregators. This section of our website will be updated accordingly.

Please find the OEAW’s detailed data privacy statement here. The contact data published in the context of the imprint duty may not be used to send promotional or informational material not explicitly requested. We explicitly disagree with this usage.
