To manage access to specific data that must be protected to maintain data respondent confidentiality, ICPSR acts as MCC’s data steward. The information collection is used by ICPSR to review and vet data users requesting access to restricted-use data. The information collected includes: (i) Restricted Data Use Agreement (RDUA) signed by both the data user and a representative of their institution; (ii) Documentation of Institutional Review Board (IRB) approval or exemption; (iii) research proposal; (iv) name and contact information of all researchers at the institution who will have access to the data; (v) list of data sets requested and why needed; and (vi) CV/Resume/ Biosketch for each user that will access the restricted-use data.

PURPOSE(S) OF THE SYSTEM: The system will: • Store and share de-identified data for public-use—To directly replace the MCC Evaluation Catalog, the platform is the mechanism by which MCC shares data and documentation that is deidentified by MCC contractors, reviewed for clearance by the MCC Disclosure Review Board (DRB), and posted to the new platform. • Store and share restricted-access data—Given promises of confidentiality and MCC’s commitments to protecting the privacy of data activity participants, some data cannot be de-identified in a way that reduces re-identification risk and retains the usability of the data for accountability and learning objectives. In cases where limited data sharing is facilitated by the informed consent process, this data can be prepared for sharing through a restricted-access mechanism which carefully protects access to data for specific statistical analysis. The platform is the mechanism by which MCC shares restricted-access data through an ICPSR-managed Virtual Data Enclave (VDE) following preparation by MCC contractors, review by the MCC DRB, and deposit of the restricted-access data with ICPSR. • Collects: (i) Restricted Data Use Agreement (RDUA) signed by both the data user and a representative of their institution; (ii) Documentation of Institutional Review Board (IRB) approval or exemption; (iii) Research proposal; (iv) Name and contact information of all researchers at the institution who will have access to the data; (v) List of data sets requested and why needed; and (vi) CV/Resume/Biosketch—defining the qualifications the individual has to lead statistical analysis of the proposed research analysis.
