Dear Sir or Madam,

I am insert pertinent information about yourself, e.g. I am a researcher in field X.

I am writing to seek clarification of the 'openness' [1] of this data:

insert details and perhaps an example link here.

I wasn't able to find an explicit statement that the data was open such as a reference to an open knowledge or data license [2] so I'm writing to find out what the exact situation is. In particular we would like to know whether the material can be made available under an open license of some kind.

Thank you very much for your time and I look forward to receiving your response.

Regards,

XXX
