As a non-member, I'm interested in obtaining linguistic data from the LDC. Please explain the general process for a non-member to acquire a dataset, including how payment is handled and what the primary licensing agreement is. Additionally, identify where I would find specific licensing information for a particular dataset.
Navigate to 'https://catalog.ldc.upenn.edu'. Click on the 'Obtaining Data' link (ID 62) under 'Language Resources' -> 'Data'. Locate the section titled 'Licensing Data as a Nonmember'. Identify the steps involved for a non-member to license data, including account creation/login and adding data to a bin/cart. Determine how payment is handled for non-members. Identify the primary user agreement governing most LDC corpora for non-members. Locate information on where to find corpus-specific nonmember license and fee information. Synthesize the information to answer the task.
The agent successfully navigates to the 'Obtaining Data' page. The agent clearly explains that non-members can obtain data by creating/logging into an LDC account, adding data to their 'bin' (shopping cart), and proceeding to checkout. The agent states that payment can be made online by credit card or other listed options, and that all necessary user licenses must be signed and payment made before an order is processed. The agent identifies the 'LDC User Agreement for Non-Members' as the primary agreement governing most LDC corpora for non-members. The agent states that corpus-specific nonmember license and fee information can be found in the 'Catalog' and that each corpus catalog page contains a link to the required nonmember license agreement.
