        "data": {
            "applies_to": "Transcriptions of public-domain documents and the facts drawn from them: the 1916 trade-directory entries, label readings, and names, dates, addresses and trade codes as printed — together with the data files https://bowandbridge.com/corpus.json, https://bowandbridge.com/register.csv and https://bowandbridge.com/register.json.",

The documents transcribed here are themselves in the public domain; a faithful transcription of a public-domain text creates no new copyright, and the facts inside it are not copyrightable at all. Claiming a licence over them would assert a right this project does not hold."

Where a data file carries a field in this site's own words — a caveat, a record note — that wording is original writing and travels under this licence.",
