Details

The data is publicly available via their website, but querties are restricted to single entities and captcha. Obtaining the full database costs about 15 000 EUR. The website carries the mention "Copyright" by the Institution, which -- adding to the price -- makes the data non-open. Lastly, as one has to pay to access the whole registrar, data is not considered available for download in bulk (although the bulk automated interface in XML format is available for 15 000 euro/year).
