Licensing Information

During the course of our work, HSL develop and produce a broad range of intellectual property assets and information, many of which can be licensed for re-use.  These currently include:

• Crown Copyright materials (e.g. photos & images, film & video footage, software products, survey materials & questionnaires, training material).
• Data derived from our services (e.g. National Population Database data).
• Bespoke IP and products (e.g. LEV training model, FIVES system).

The various links from this page provide you with more information on HSLs licensing activity and the materials that are available to licence.

HSL comply with the Re-Use of Public Sector Information Regulations 2005 and follow the principles of the Information Fair Trader Scheme (IFTS).

Our Chief Executive has signed a personal commitment to this effect.

All of our licensing of Crown Copyright materials is undertaken under a Delegation of Authority from the Controller of Her Majesty's Stationery Office.
