3I strongly recommend contacting a lawyer. Copyright law is complicated and is different in different countries.– Peter FlomCommented Apr 25 at 12:43

1Can you clarify what you mean by "clicked data"? Perhaps there's a more conventional phrasing for what you mean.– Daniel R. CollinsCommented Apr 25 at 13:57

3@DanielR.Collins WebPlotDigitizer is a piece of software for reconstructing a table/spreadsheet of data from a graphical representation of those data - a key part of the workflow for using it is clicking on points on the graph, hence "clicked data".– Daniel HattonCommented Apr 25 at 14:54

Thanks for the comment! Thanks Daniel Hatton for the details about the tools. Yes Peter Flom, I will contact a lawyer in my company, but I was curious if anyone already did this. And thanks Anyon for this link! That seems quite appropriate. I will dig and come back to close this if I get an answer (which might be country dependent but could help other people).– LalyluleloCommented Apr 28 at 7:43

A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
Use tags that describe what your question is about, not what it merely relates to. For example almost every question on this site is eventually related to research, but only questions about performing research should be tagged research.
Use tags describing circumstances only if those circumstances are essential to your question. For example, if you have a question about citations that came up during writing a thesis but might as well have arisen during writing a paper, do not tag it with thesis.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. graduate-admissions), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
