Do I have to make all my research data available?
Do I have to make all my research data available?
Answer
No. Not all data can be shared (e.g. non-anonymised personal data) and not all data is useful to share. The selection of data that you make available to third parties depends on
- why you make the data available (for example for validation of research outputs or to allow further analysis of your data)
- what data must be kept because of policies and regulations
- what data should be kept because it is of long-term value
