The IIS-FJD endeavors to ensure that the DATA obtained and to be supplied fulfills all guarantees related to protection, safety, and confidentiality appearing in applicable regulations (Regulation (EU) 2016/679 General Data Protection Regulation, Organic Law 3/2018, on protection of personal information; Law 14/2007, of July 3, on biomedical research; and Law 41/2002, of November 14, regulating patient autonomy and the rights and obligations of information and clinical documentation; as well as regulations governing the implementation of said laws). 1. The User Institution agrees to only use these Data for the purpose of the Project (described in Appendix II) and only for Research Purposes. The User Institution further agrees that it will only use these Data for Research Purposes which are within the limitations (if any) set out in Appendix I. 2. CONFIDENTIALITY: Except where the information is part of the public domain, each party endeavors to preserve the confidentiality of scientific or technical information proprietary to the other party that it may access by virtue of this agreement, except when specifically authorized to do otherwise by the party that owns such information. This obligation shall remain in force regardless of whether the present agreement is in force and as long as the information continues to be confidential. 3. The User Institution agrees to preserve, at all times, the confidentiality of these Data. In particular, it undertakes not to use, or attempt to use these Data to compromise or otherwise infringe the confidentiality of information on Research Participants. Without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, the User Institution agrees to use at least the measures set out in Appendix I to protect these Data. 4. The User Institution agrees to protect the confidentiality of Research Participants in any research papers or publications that they prepare by taking all reasonable care to limit the possibility of identification. 5. The User Institution agrees not to link or combine these Data to other information or archived data available in a way that could re-identify the Research Participants, even if access to that data has been formally granted to the User Institution or is freely available without restriction. 6. The User Institution agrees only to transfer or disclose these Data, in whole or part, or any material derived from these Data, to the Authorised Personnel (Appendix II). Should the User Institution wish to share these Data with an External Collaborator, the External Collaborator must complete a separate application for access to these Data. 7. The User Institution agrees that the Data Producers, and all other parties involved in the creation, funding or protection of these Data: a) make no warranty or representation, express or implied as to the accuracy, quality or comprehensiveness of these Data; b) exclude to the fullest extent permitted by law all liability for actions, claims, proceedings, demands, losses (including but not limited to loss of profit), costs, awards damages and payments made by the Recipient that may arise (whether directly or indirectly) in any way whatsoever from the Recipient’s use of these Data or from the unavailability of, or break in 2access to, these Data for whatever reason and; c) bear no responsibility for the further analysis or interpretation of these Data. 8.

The User Institution can elect to perform further research that would add intellectual and resource capital to these data and decide to obtain intellectual property rights on these downstream discoveries. In this case, the User Institution agrees to implement licensing policies that will not obstruct further research and to follow the U.S. National Institutes of Health Best Practices for the Licensing of Genomic Inventions (2005) (https://www.icgc.org/files/daco/NIH_BestPracticesLicensingGenomicInventions_2 005_en.pdf ) in conformity with the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development Guidelines for the Licensing of the Genetic Inventions (2006) (http://www.oecd.org/science/biotech/36198812.pdf ). 12.
