Open data check Data protection: For data sets where persons, households or firms are identified - it is normally not possible to publish data openly. In such instances, it may be possible (pending terms) to generate an anonymised version of the data for sharing. Database copyright: Where a research dataset is derived/elaborated from pre-existing, commercially- licensed database(s), it is normally not possible to re- publish significant extractions due to copyright protection and contractual terms of use.
