GILF Licences

Man on a notebook with CC-BY licence in background GILF provides seven licensing options comprising six Creative Commons (CC) licences and the GILF Restrictive Licence template (RL). Together with an appropriate copyright statement, they provide the conditions of use and access.

The six Creative Commons licences incorporated within GILF are the preferred method of licensing for the management of government intellectual property. Use of the Creative Commons licences fosters availability and accessibility, and encourages the re-use of government information.

The Restrictive Licence template was developed by the GILF project team in consultation with Crown Law in the Queensland Department of Justice and Attorney-General. The Restrictive Licence template has been developed specifically for material that contains personal or other confidential information. It may also be used for other reasons, including material that is to be licensed under some form of limiting or restrictive condition (such as a time limit on use, or payment arrangements other than an initial once-only fee).

For more information about the licence types encompassed in GILF as well as licence formats, visit the Licences section of this website.
