1. Publication of personal data

I hereby confirm that by submitting personal metadata (name and surname of the participating persons) I act in consent with all persons whose data I enter. I also confirm that I do not violate any personal rights by omitting the name of any participating person.

The research data submitted to DepositOnce does not infringe any personal rights.

If personal data is contained in the research results it is in general completely anonymized according to canonical standards.

If personal data could not be anonymized the test persons have explicitly consented to the publication of their personal data. All possible insight and re-use of these non-anonymized data by third parties is subject to the requirements of data protection law.

2. Storing of e-mail addresses and names

In the DepositOnce software, the e-mail address is used as a “unique identifier” for a user account and is linked to the published record. The software also requires the user's first name and last name for the processing routine. E-mail address, first and last name are not displayed in DepositOnce, but are used solely for internal system processing.

I hereby agree that my e-mail address and my first and last name are stored in the DepositOnce system when I submit and publish a record in DepositOnce.

3. Deposit license

In order for DepositOnce to store and distribute my submission worldwide, I agree to the following terms.
