Notes

Restriction can be "Allow", "Disallow" or "Conditional".
If Restriction is "Disallow" or "Conditional", rights restricted start and end dates in PREMIS will be in a <termOfRestriction> container.
If Restriction is "Allow", rights granted start and end dates are in a <termOfGrant> container.
All note fields should be a repeatable field.
Rights Bases are "Copyright", "Statute", "License", "Policy", and "Donor". However, "Policy" and "Donor" are expressed as <otherRights> in the PREMIS file.
All rights have Documentation identifier sections which allow the user to make intellectual links between rights statements and external documentation, such as institutional policy documents or donor agreements.
All rights have start and end dates linked to the rights basis as well as to an act. For example, a policy can have a start date of 1992 but acts it allows (such as dissemination) have separate start and end dates.
No agents are linked to rights statements.
Use "OPEN" for open-ended terms of restriction granted, rights granted, and permission granted. (checkbox in Archivematica)
A blank end date indicates either end date unknown or the permission statement applies to many objects with different end dates. In this case, endDate is omitted from the metadata
