(Case C-30/14) (*)
(Reference for a preliminary ruling - Directive 96/9/EC - Legal protection of databases - Database not protected by copyright or the sui generis right - Contractual limitation on the rights of users of the database)
(2015/C 073/10)
Language of the case: Dutch
Applicant: Ryanair Ltd
Defendant: PR Aviation BV
Directive 96/9/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 March 1996 on the legal protection of databases must be interpreted as meaning that it is not applicable to a database which is not protected either by copyright or by the sui generis right under that directive, so that Articles 6(1), 8 and 15 of that directive do not preclude the author of such a database from laying down contractual limitations on its use by third parties, without prejudice to the applicable national law.
