the Repository, meet the required criteria (i.a. possession
of a valid ORCID identifier), and are approved by the Repository at its sole
discretion after the registration.
2. Research data may be uploaded only after the Depositors
acceptance by the Repository.
3. The
Depositor gives the Repository the right to distribute the data including metadata on Depositors
behalf. The Depositor grants the Repository an unlimited non-exclusive licence
to use the submitted data to provide the Services. The
Repository has the right to modify the format and/or functionality of the data
and metadata if this is necessary for the preservation, dissemination or reuse
of data. Furthermore, the Depositor agrees that the Repository may produce
copies of the submitted data for purposes of security, back-up, preservation,

regarding Depositors data and metadata.
8. The Depositor ensures that the submitted data is
suitable for (open) dissemination, and that it complies with these Terms of Use
and applicable laws, including, but not limited to, privacy, data protection
and intellectual property rights and does not breach
any existing agreements.
9. The Repository is primarily intended for the archiving
and dissemination of anonymised and pseudoanonymised data.
The Depositor ensures that research data originally containing (sensitive)
personal data is either anonym, anonymised, or fully consent cleared. In case
the Depositor submits personal data, the Terms on Data Processing below are
agreed upon and apply. However, Depositors considering the Repository for the
archiving and dissemination of personal data are advised to use bespoke
specialised service providers for sharing their data rather than the Repository
that is an open dissemination research service.
10. The Repository is not obliged to check whether the
archiving, preservation, dissemination and/or use of data and metadata violates
the rights of third parties. Specifically, the Repository is not responsible
for the content of the data and metadata, the legality of the dissemination of
the data and metadata or the access to the data and metadata. The Depositor
will indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Repository from any and all
claims, damages and liabilities of third parties in that respect. For that said
purpose, the Depositor agrees that during or after the
submission of data and metadata to the Repository, the data may undergo a
curation process by the Repository. The Depositor agrees to collaborate with
the Repository in order to verify basic levels of quality and consistency of
the data.
11. The Repository accepts no liability in the event that
data are lost in whole or in part. This does not apply in the case of
intentional conduct.
12. The
Repository protects any personal information it collects from the Depositors as
required by data protection legislation. The Privacy Policy (Annex 3) describes
what personal data is collected and how it is processed.
Additional Terms on Data Processing:
Additional terms in case personal data is processed by the Repository on behalf of the Depositor.
In this case the Repository is considered processor within the meaning of Art 4
(8) General Data Protection Regulation[1] (GDPR).
1.
These terms govern the obligations of the parties
regarding data protection arising from the Services provided to the Depositor
by the Repository. It applies to all activities that are related to the
Services and in which employees of the Repository or third parties commissioned
by the Repository process personal data of the Depositor.
2.
The Repository will
process personal data submitted by the Depositor to the Repository. The data
processing has the sole purpose of providing the Services. The processor may
process data only in the context of the Services for and according to the
instructions of the Depositor or as agreed upon in these Terms of Use.
3.
The Repository will inform the Depositor, if it
believes that an instruction violates applicable law. In this case, the
Repository may suspend the implementation of the instruction until it has been
confirmed or amended by the Depositor.
4.
The Repository undertakes to take technical and
organizational measures to adequately protect the data that meet the
requirements of the GDPR, in particular to comply with Art 32 GDPR (see Annex
1).
5.
Insofar as this is possible, the Repository assists
the Depositor in the fulfillment of requests and claims of data subjects
(Art 12 to 23 GDPR) and supports the Depositor to comply with the
obligations set out in Art 32 to 36 GDPR. In case of a claim by a data subject
according to Art 82 GDPR, the Repository undertakes to assist the Depositor in
defending the claim to the best of its ability. For these support and
assistance Services, the Repository is entitled to demand a reasonable fee from
the Depositor.
6.
The Repository is entitled to engage another processor
(hereinafter referred to as "subprocessor") without prior written authorization of
the Depositor. In any case, the Repository is obliged to inform the Depositor
about the subprocessors as listed in Annex 2 and the
Depositor may raise a reasonable objection within a week of notification. If
the Repository engages a subprocessor for carrying
out specific processing activities on behalf of the Repository, the same data
protection obligations as set out in these Terms on Data Processing shall be
imposed on that subprocessor by way of a contract, in
particular providing sufficient guarantees to implement appropriate technical
and organisational measures in such a manner that the
processing will meet the requirements of the GDPR. Where that subprocessor fails to fulfil its data protection
obligations, the Repository shall remain liable to the Depositor for the
performance of the subprocessor's obligations.
7.
The Repository shall keep all confidential data
confidential that has been entrusted or made accessible by the Depositor and
shall use these data only for the lawful performance of its Services. The
Repository further warrants that all its employees and any subprocessors
who have access to the confidential data will have signed a confidentiality
agreement with at least equivalent content to this provision and will sign such
prior to contact with the confidential data. The confidentiality obligations
continue to exist even after the termination of the Services.
8.
The Repository shall delete all data after the end of
the provision of Services relating to processing. The exceptions to this are
data backlogs in backup systems until their regular and secure deletion, as
well as data that must be stored in order to fulfill legal obligations.
9.
The Repository shall notify the Depositor without
undue delay upon becoming aware of a data breach affecting the Depositors data
and undertakes to take the necessary measures to mitigate possible adverse
consequences for the data subjects concerned.
10. To
the extent necessary, the Depositor is entitled to audit the Repositorys
compliance with the data protection regulations and the contractual
obligations, in particular the technical and organizational measures taken by
the Repository and to carry out inspections before starting the data processing
and at regular intervals.
