Explicitly, Data does not include physical samples or biological materials;1.2 “Data Subject” shall mean the person (irrespective of state of health) to whom Data refers and who has been informed of the purpose for which the Data is held and has given his/her informed consent thereto;1.3 “Intellectual Property” means (i) patents, designs, trade marks and trade names (whether registered or unregistered), copyright and related rights, database rights, know-how and confidential information; (ii) all other intellectual property rights and similar or equivalent rights anywhere in the world which currently exist or are recognised in the future; and (iii) applications, extensions and renewals in relation to any such rights;1.4 “Registered User” shall mean a Researcher (or an individual conducting Research under the direct supervision of that Researcher) that is employed by, or holds an appointment with, the Recipient and is bound by confidentiality and non-use obligations in respect of Data and who has signed this Agreement and has received acknowledgement of its acceptance. For the avoidance of doubt, “Registered User” may also include students of the Recipient, visiting academics, contractors, sub-contractors or independent consultants provided that any such individual is bound by confidentiality and non-use obligations no less onerous than those binding the Recipient’s employees;1.5 “Research” shall mean non-commercial research undertaken by the Recipient that seeks to advance the understanding and treatment of cancer and closely related diseases, and work on statistical methods that may be applied to such Research;1.6“Researcher(s)” shall mean an individual or individuals carrying out Research who:(a) in the case of an individual seeking access to Data held solely under the control of ICR, has authored a relevant peer-reviewed article that ICR can locate on PubMed and who is still working in the field; or(b) in the case of an individual seeking access to Data held as part of a wider consortium, is a successful applicant to the consortium data access committee.2 Purpose2.1The Recipient agrees to use Data only for the purposes of the Research.3 Confidentiality3.1 The Recipient agrees to preserve, at all times, the confidentiality of Data pertaining to identifiable Data Subjects. In particular, the Recipient undertakes not to use, or attempt to use the Data to deliberately compromise or otherwise infringe the confidentiality of information on Data Subjects and their right to privacy.

The Recipient agrees that before it gives any Registered User access to Data, it shall first show the Registered User a copy of this Agreement and shall inform the Registered User that he or she must comply with the obligations contained in this Agreement and sign up to the provisions of this Agreement in the form set out at the end of this Agreement. The Recipient shall provide ICR with a copy of the Registered User’s acceptance form within thirty (30) days of the date of acceptance by the Registered User.5.3 The Recipient agrees that it shall only give Registered Users that are not Researchers (including but not limited to students or new researchers to the field) access to the Data if they are supervised by a Researcher who will take responsibility for such Registered Users’ use of the Data.5.4 ICR reserves the right to request and inspect data security and management documentation to ensure the adequacy of data protection measures in countries that have no national laws comparable to that pertaining in the European Economic Area (EEA).6Errors6.1The Recipient agrees to notify the ICR of any errors detected in the Data.7Data reissue7.1 The Recipient accepts that Data will be reissued from time to time, with suitable versioning.

In this event, ICR will contact Recipient to inform Recipient of any changes and Recipient agrees that its continued use of the Data shall be dependent on the parties entering into a new version of the Agreement.13 Governing Law13.1 This Agreement (and any dispute, controversy, proceedings or claim of whatever nature arising out of this Agreement or its formation) shall be construed, interpreted and governed by English Law and shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales. Nothing in this clause shall however prevent either party from seeking interim relief in any court of competent jurisdiction.AGREED by the parties through their authorised signatoriesINSTITUTE OF CANCER RESEARCH: ROYAL CANCER HOSPITALAuthorised Signature:Name:Title:Date:RECIPIENT: Authorised Signature: Name: Title: Address: Telephone No: E-mail: Researcher: Title: Address: Telephone No: E-mail: Researcher Signature (read and understood):Date: Registered User Signature:Name: Title: Date:ICR complies with the requirements of the Data Protection Act 1998 with regard to the collection, storage, processing and disclosure of personal information and is committed to upholding the Act's core Data Protection Principles.
