Game records may not be copyrightable, but collections of game records may be. And for databases created in the European Union, the sui generis right of the European Database Directive applies independent of copyright (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_directive). Game records in the collection you mention were taken from GoGoD and SmartGo without permission. GoGoD (http://www.gogod.demon.co.uk/) has over 42,400 professional games in SGF format that you can use for data mining.
