About: ODRL

The Open Digital Rights Language (ODRL) is a policy expression language that provides a flexible and interoperable information model, vocabulary, and encoding mechanisms for representing statements about the usage of content and services. ODRL became an endorsed W3C Recommendation in 2018. An example of ODRL policy follows, which can be simply interpreted as "John Doe can Play the asset mysong.mp3". { "@context": "http://www.w3.org/ns/odrl.jsonld", "uid": "http://example.com/policy:001", "permission": [{ "target": "http://example.com/mysong.mp3", "assignee": "John Doe", "action": "play" }]}
