SPHN has updated its legal agreement template. This version builds on experiences from multi-site project negotiations. It addresses key legal requirements, ensuring secure and transparent data sharing between contracting parties.
The updated legal agreement template for data sharing and usage provides a comprehensive framework for the obligations of the participating parties. It consists of a Consortium Agreement with an integrated Data Transfer and Use Agreement, as well as a Data Transfer and Processing Agreement.
This new version draws on insights gained from the SPHN National Data Streams (NDS) projects and the work of the Data Governance Working Group (DGWG). The updated template addresses critical legal considerations for nationwide data sharing. It promotes consistency, transparency, and trust among partners.
By providing legal agreement templates, SPHN supports seamless collaboration, enabling data sharing initiatives to thrive within a secure and well-governed framework.
