Open Data Policy Generator
Use this form to help you create an open data policy! When you're done, you will get an email with your sample policy.
This is intended to provide you with a sample for you to work off of and customize for your own place or agency's needs. Please do not just take the result blindly — read through the policy and make sure you understand all the parts, then fine-tune it to meet your needs. In the spirit of transparency, if you propose this policy, we strongly encourage you to cite where you got this sample text from (the Sunlight Foundation). Make sure to check out our resources here:
