What the licence does not cover

Original source material. Every record links to a source — a news article, a police dataset, an organisation's report. The licence covers our compilation, classification and metadata. It does not grant rights to the underlying articles, photographs or reports, which remain with their publishers.

Imported official data. Records sourced from OSCE ODIHR, NYPD Open Data, the FBI Crime Data Explorer, Statistics Canada and national community security organisations carry their originators' own terms. Where those terms are more restrictive than CC BY 4.0, they prevail. The sourceName field tells you which layer a record came from.

Before you publish figures from this archive

This archive measures how visible incidents became, not how many occurred. National community organisations — CST, ADL, RIAS, CDEC, B'nai Brith, DAIA, ECAJ, CIDI — count what victims report to them. Their numbers are consistently higher and are the better measure of incidence.

Four limitations that will mislead you if you skip them:

1. Roughly 95% of records are collected automatically and have not been checked by a human. Follow sourceUrl before citing any individual incident.
2. Two thirds of the archive is imported official and open data, not press reporting. OSCE ODIHR alone accounts for more than 7,000 records.
3. The imported OSCE layer ends in 2024. The apparent decline after 2024 is data lag, not a fall in incidents. Do not read a trend off it.
4. US figures are dominated by New York because NYPD publishes hate-crime data as open data and most US police departments do not. This is an artefact of what is published, not a finding about New York.
