Digitaalsete keeleressursside loomist ja kasutamist määrav õiguslik raamistik Eestis ja selle ühildumine CLARIN-i infrastruktuuriga

Abstract

Artikkel keskendub keeleressurssidega seonduvatele oiguslikele kusimustele. Aluseks voetakse protsess, mis algab keeleressursside loomisega ning lopeb nende levitamisega. Keeleressurss on oma olemuselt autorioiguslikult kaitstav andmebaas, mida katavad kahetasemelised oigused (oigused autorioiguslikult kaitstavale materjalile, mida ressursside loomisel kasutati, ja oigused ressursile endale), millega tuleb levitamise protsessis arvestada. Keeleressursside loomine saab tugineda kahele voimalikule oiguslikule mudelile: 1) litsentsipohine mudel ja 2) erandipohine mudel. Molemaga kaasnevad positiivsed ja negatiivsed aspektid, mida kaesolevas artiklis ka analuusitakse, vottes arvesse arenguid Euroopa Liidus. Enne kui keeleressurssi saab levitada CLARIN-i vorgustikus, on oluline, et oigused levitada oleks ule antud monele Eesti Keeleressursside Keskuse konsortsiumipartnerile. Oigused ressursile lahevad ule kas toosuhtes voi siis lepinguga. Sel eesmargil on tootatud valja CLARIN-i deponeerimislepingud. Enne kui kasutaja saab ressursile ligipaasu, peab ta noustuma CLARIN-i teenusetingimustega. Artikkel selgitab CLARIN-i tuuplepingutega seonduvaid kusimusi ning tutvustab CLARIN-i lepingute viimaseid parandusi.  Regulatory framework determining the development and utilization of digital language resources in Estonia and its compatibility with CLARIN infrastructure  The article focuses on legal issues relating to language resources. These issues are analyzed throughout the process of the creation of language resources and their subsequent distribution. Language resources can be defined as copyright protected databases, which are governed by two tiers of rights: 1) rights in material used to create the database and 2) rights in this database. The creation of language resources can be subject to two models: 1) the contract model and 2) the exception model. Both models have their advantages and disadvantages. The models are analyzed in the light of developments at the EU level. Before language resources can be distributed, it is necessary to transfer copyright covering resources to a partner of the Center of Estonian Language Resources. The rights are transferred within employment or contractually. For this purpose, CLARIN deposition license agreement templates have been developed. Before end users can access language resources they have to accept CLARIN Terms of Service. The scope of the article is not confined to the explanation of CLARIN agreement templates. The article also highlights the latest amendments to these templates.
