It's normal they keep their IP rights.

It means that they still have to right to give the data to selected people
under another license (like a license that doesn't require source
mentioning). All people do this, also open-source software writers.

Apart from that, I agree they are talking to us, and want us to use the
data. So even if it's not completely legan (in other words, a lawyer might
find a hole), we can use it. And if there are complaints, we can still
figure out what to do.

Regards,
Sander
