Where a [DataReuseLicense](https://ldaca.gitbook.io/metadata-for-language-data/classes/datareuselicense) is not [OpenAccess](https://ldaca.gitbook.io/metadata-for-language-data/defined-terms/openaccess), there must be some process by which potential users are granted a license to use a resource. Such processes are analysed in terms of the workflow followed in granting the license.
