Sui Generis Database Right

The Sui Generis Database Right is a legal protection unique to databases in some jurisdictions, like the European Union. It safeguards the investment made by creators in gathering, organizing, and presenting data, even if the data itself isn't originally copyrightable. This means that if someone tries to copy or use a database without permission, they could be infringing on this right. Essentially, it protects the effort involved in creating a database, ensuring that those who invest time and resources in compiling data can control how it is used.
