Text and data mining (TDM) involves extracting and analyzing large quantities of text and data to derive actionable insights. Defining granted permissions is essential to facilitate the legal and ethical use of content.

Objectives

• Specify the conditions under which content can be mined for text and data analysis.
• Promote the ethical and responsible use of data.

Implementation

• Use the tdm:reservation and tdm:policy meta properties.
• For EPUB files, provide TDM permissions via metadata in the OPF file or dedicated XML files.
• For PDF files, include TDM permissions within the XMP (Extensible Metadata Platform) metadata.

Control

• Verify the presence of tdm:reservation and tdm:policy metadata in the OPF file (for EPUB) or the XMP metadata (for PDF).
• Ensure that this metadata is consistent with the statements on the copyright page or within the legal notices.
