What is the difference between data use and data access?

Research Data Use Agreements (DUAs) govern access to and treatment of data provided by an outside organization to Berkeley for use in Berkeley research.

Similar to a Data Use Agreement, a Data Access Agreement (DAA) is an agreement used to gain access to another party's secure data site to use the data there; no data transfer takes place. To have your DUA or DAA reviewed, contact the Industry Alliances Office.
