Hi Amy. Each study has different rights for access depending on funding. Some data is not publicly available at all, and that is a part of the IRB process and informed consent documents. You should check with the PI of the study you are interested in and that university’s Office of Research Compliance.

Dear AoIR researchers,

I have a data rights question concerning data collection. If anyone has experience and knowledge concerning university policies concerning data collection using Search APIs and then who has the rights to access the data collected, I would greatly appreciate corresponding with you.

Thank you! Wishing you all a very restful weekend!
