Agreements-DUA Submission System Coming in Early December 2018!

As part of a larger initiative to improve and increase transparency into research compliance processes, Harvard will soon have a tool for submission and review of your Data Use Agreement (DUA)* requests. Researchers that share data between organizations can use the system as one place to:
  • Request a DUA review; 
  • Correspond with the DUA reviewer;
  • Track the status of review; and 
  • Manage active DUAs (including extension requests).
 Please visit the Agreements-DUA support site to:
  • Register for informational drop-in training sessions in your area (starting the first week of November);
  • View system guidance materials; and 
  • Plan for the date of system availability in your area. 
This site will be updated regularly through December. Please visit often for updated information on these topics (and more!).
 
* A Data Use Agreement (DUA) is a binding contract between organizations governing the transfer and use of data. DUA terms and conditions vary depending on the laws and regulations governing the particular type of data as well as the policies and/or requirements of the Provider. A DUA must be signed by a Harvard Institutional Signatory.
