29A Copies for text and data analysis for non-commercial research

1

The making of a copy of a work by a person who has lawful access to the work does not infringe copyright in the work provided that—

a

the copy is made in order that a person who has lawful access to the work may carry out a computational analysis of anything recorded in the work for the sole purpose of research for a non-commercial purpose, and

b

the copy is accompanied by a sufficient acknowledgement (unless this would be impossible for reasons of practicality or otherwise).

2

Where a copy of a work has been made under this section, copyright in the work is infringed if—

a

the copy is transferred to any other person, except where the transfer is authorised by the copyright owner, or

b

the copy is used for any purpose other than that mentioned in subsection (1)(a), except where the use is authorised by the copyright owner.

3

If a copy made under this section is subsequently dealt with—

a

it is to be treated as an infringing copy for the purposes of that dealing, and

b

if that dealing infringes copyright, it is to be treated as an infringing copy for all subsequent purposes.

4

In subsection (3) “dealt with” means sold or let for hire, or offered or exposed for sale or hire.

5

To the extent that a term of a contract purports to prevent or restrict the making of a copy which, by virtue of this section, would not infringe copyright, that term is unenforceable.

in any other case, the person doing the copying knows or has reason to believe that it will result in copies of substantially the same material being provided to more than one person at substantially the same time and for substantially the same purpose.
