Government
Online Database Service
Formats
- Access
- Excel
- Database Application
Since the structure of the database is a simple standardised format,
almost any database or CRM system should be able access and utilise
it. Additional formats can be supplied if necessary but it is usually
the case that either Access or Excel meet the requirements of the
vast majority of clients – whether their operating system is Windows,
Mac OS X, Linux, or UNIX.

The Database Application is supplied free of charge to subscribers to
Government Online Database Service and to Government Online Information Services.

Online
and Offline Access
The Government Online Database is provided on CD or DVD. Copies in
Access and Excel, with the Database Application, are supplied on each
disk. The information can be transferred directly to the user's computer
or workstation and manipulated locally from that point on. Online access is provided by the Government
Online Secure Site, which offers a means of viewing and searching the Government Online Database
by organisation, region, alphabetic listing, tailored database, or by extended criteria.
Licensing
The client purchases the Government Online Database (though the
copyright remains with ourselves) and receives updates for a 12
months' time period. At the end of that 12 months the client has
the option of resubscribing, at which point they will continue to
have access to database updates, or they can choose otherwise, at
which point they will cease to receive updated information. Since
a considerable amount of data changes each year it is extremely
advantageous to government suppliers to continue to resubscribe.
The subscription is licensed to the subscribing company, and therefore
can be utilised by multiple individuals within that company; however
it cannot be utilised outside of it, nor can it be resold. The definition
of 'company' can include 'group' on certain occasions. If you have
questions regarding licensing please send an email to data@government-online.net
and our Terms and Conditions will be sent by return. We are happy
to assist marketing companies where the information is to be supplied
for a single client.
