What should a reseller settle about onward licence terms before starting a pilot?
A direct answer on which licensing questions to raise with MirrorFirm before a pilot, without setting any terms, prices or timelines in advance.
**Does this answer set my licence terms?**
No. Terms, pricing and timelines are agreed directly with MirrorFirm. This list covers what to raise.
**What should I ask about onward rights?**
- May you sublicense, and to which kinds of customer? - Can customers use the data for training, evaluation or both? - Are there limits on redistribution, resale of derived sets or public posting of samples? - What attribution or disclosure wording must accompany the data?
**What should I ask about the material itself?**
- What documentation, schema files and data dictionaries can you pass on? - How are versions labelled, and how do corrections reach customers who already hold an earlier version? - What happens to existing customer copies if a defect is found?
**What should I ask about risk?**
- How should grounding and disclosure risk be described to customers? - What inspection support can you expect during the pilot?
**What should I not promise customers?**
Do not claim the data is real, anonymised, privacy-compliant or regulator-approved. It is generated, and each buyer should inspect it for themselves.
Raising onward rights, documentation and version handling before the pilot keeps a successful sample from stalling at the licensing stage.
