Data download limits
Sketch Engine contains many valuable corpora. To protect their content, there are limitations to how much data can be viewed and downloaded. Certain limits can be increased or removed. See the conditions below.
Full access to the OneClick Terms terminology extractor may not be included in your subscription. Trial access to OneClick Terms is included with all accounts. How to gain FULL access?
Corpus download limits
User corpora (the ones built by the user) can be downloaded. The preloaded corpora can be licensed for academic or commercial purposes at a fee. Contact us to enquire about the availability, and the pricing and licensing options.
Result download limits
There are limits to the download of data generated by the tools in Sketch Engine. The limits apply to preloaded corpora only. Certain limits can be removed for a fee. No limits are applied to downloading data from user’s own corpora.
