Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

Important licence information

Single user or multi-user?

Single and multi-user licences can be purchased directly online. These licences are exclusively for a single company or group and do not allow you to do work with third parties or put the data in a model for which the derived data would be visible or available to third parties (see below).

A single user licence is appropriate as long as only one person can access or view the data. If other users were able to view even the results of the calculations in a shared internal tool then you would need a licence to reflect all the users – if they are in different locations then a global licence would be needed.

We would therefore expect all multinationals to purchase the global licence (unlimited users, multiple locations).

Do I need a contract or permission?

If you intend to use the data in any type of modelling for the purpose of creating derived data or derived products, and any services to distribute or display such derived products you need to sign an Agreement and pay a fee. The licences available online are exclusively for a single company or group and do not allow you to do work with third parties or put the data in a model for which the derived data would be visible or available to third parties (see below).

Can the data or any result of their processing be shared with third parties?

If you are using the data to calculate for third parties like clients, provide a tool that contains or relies on the data to third parties, or create other derived data which you intend to sell, disseminate or otherwise use externally, you need to request permission and enter into a Licence Agreement as such usage is not covered by our standard terms and conditions which you can find at the following link: /terms.
