Limitation about the Number of Applications for Data Usage

You may apply for up to 5 series of datasets per month.

How to count the number of series

Different datasets are regarded as a series of datasets when both their survey titles and depositors are same, or when the datasets share the same questionaire. In case of more than 5 series applied per month, we ask you about the reason for requesting the datasets.
We appriciate your cooperation and it will help your data management. Please note that there is no limit to the number of datasets that you may use when you follow this rule.
If you have any question about the number of applications for data usage, please contact SSJDA.
