Why DUC?

The Digital Use Conditions framework standardises how data custodians express use permissions, helping researchers find data that matches their consent obligations.

CCE focus

Today’s release validates profiles that use Common Conditions of use Elements (CCE) terms. Future releases will expand to additional vocabularies.
