DATA Scheme Data Sharing Agreements

All arrangements on who can access the data, the environment, what you can and can’t do, costs, what happens is the project team change, etc. go into the DSA. The data custodian will determine which DSA template will be used.
Monash specific guides are yet to be developed. For general information on what to consider when developing a DSA view the ARDC Data Sharing Agreement Development Guidelines.
Timeframes depend on the data custodian, complexity of the data requested, arrangements being negotiated, and number and type of project partners accessing the data. You will need to factor in time for Monash’s legal department (OGC) to review the DSA along with the data custodian, and potentially project partners, legal teams prior to the agreement being signed by the DATA Scheme Authorising Officer.
The ONDC maintains the register. For privacy and confidential reasons the DSA will not be visible on the publicly available register, however some information will be visible. When submitting a request in Dataplace, some questions display: For DATA Scheme agreements, this response will be included on the public register. Your responses to these will be available on the publicly accessible register.
