Updated policies and application for CoreTrustSeal Certification for the Research Data Archive

09.02.2024

As part of the ongoing renovations for the NIRD Research Data Archive, we have conducted a comprehensive review of our archiving services policies and terms.

This initiative aims to enhance our support for Open Science and Open Access.

In light of these efforts, we have recently updated the Depositor Agreement, refined the Terms of Use, and openly shared our Preservation Plan. We encourage all users of our Research Data Archive to acquaint themselves with these foundational documents, ensuring the security, open accessibility, and long-term preservation of the digital objects deposited in line with the guidelines published by national governmental bodies, funders and publishers. 

Furthermore, we are pleased to announce our application for the CoreTrustSeal certification.  

We strive to make your data accessible and reusable while ensuring its preservation for the benefit of your research, the scientific community, and society as a whole.
