3. Terms and Conditions

By accessing the Materials, the User agrees to be bound by the following terms.

3.1. Permitted Purpose

The User and Authorized Users may use the Materials for the purposes of research and analysis.

3.3. Protection of Human Subjects

The Provider considers the Materials to be anonymized. The User's undertakings in this Section 3.3 are a condition of access and are intended to preserve that status. The User will not attempt to use the Materials, either alone or in combination with other information, to discover the identity of, or contact, any individual participant. If the User inadvertently discovers identifying information, they must immediately notify the Provider, isolate the data, and securely destroy it upon instruction. The User shall not attempt to identify, diagnose, classify, or otherwise infer the presence of any disease, lesion, or pathological condition in any individual participant in the Materials.

3.4. Data Security and Institutional Compliance

The User must implement appropriate technical, physical, and administrative safeguards to protect the Materials from unauthorized access. The User will comply with all relevant local, national, and international data protection regulations.

3.5. Citation and Attribution

In any publications, presentations, or outputs arising from the use of the Materials, the User shall appropriately cite the primary multimodal-hc dataset publication, including the DOI [DOI TO BE INSERTED].

3.7. Liability and Indemnification

In no event shall the Provider be liable for damages (including loss of data or derivative losses) arising from the use of the Materials. The User agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Provider against claims or damages arising directly or indirectly from the use of the Materials. This includes any direct and indirect damages from a force majeure or similar event.
