Database right
What?
The database right regulates the intellectual property for databases. It is part of intellectual property right but falls outside copyright. It is a right sui generis (literally: only one of its kind). In contrast to copyright, which covers a much broader range within the intellectual property right, the database right was created for this specific application. It is based on the Database Directive (96/9/EC) which came into effect with the European Union in 1996.
