Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use datasets for my research project?

Yes, the Standard License allows you to use datasets for research and educational purposes, including academic publications. Just remember to provide proper attribution as specified in Section 3 of this Agreement.

Can I train a commercial AI model with your datasets?

Training a model for commercial use requires a Commercial License. The Standard License only permits training models for non-commercial purposes. If you plan to monetize your model or use it in a commercial product or service, you'll need to purchase a Commercial License.

Can I share datasets with my team or colleagues?

For Standard and Commercial Licenses, you may share datasets with immediate team members working on the same project, but they must also adhere to the terms of this Agreement. Broader sharing or redistribution is not permitted. Enterprise Licenses may include custom terms for team sharing—contact us for details.

What happens if I change license types?

You can upgrade your license at any time by paying the difference in price. The new license terms will apply from the date of upgrade. Please note that downgrading a license is not supported, as you cannot revoke commercial use once it has begun.

Do I need to renew my license?

Standard and Commercial Licenses are perpetual for the specific version of the dataset you download. However, if the dataset is updated with new data or improvements, accessing these updates may require a license renewal or upgrade, depending on your subscription type.
