Even extracting a polygon is a modification. Extracting a polygon is a modification but can you not separate the steps: 1. Original OSM data 2. extract polygon, get a derived database, which you have to make available 3. use the derived database, in unmodified form, and combine it with your own data to make a collective database Your own data would never take part in the formation of a derived database in this case.
