About this file

This document contains a data disclosure clearance form and instructions for contractors providing national-level pharmaceutical sales data to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The form requires contractors to specify the type of data disclosure clearance being requested, either for public release of aggregated limited rights data or disclosure of limited rights data to a specific third party.

For public releases, the form requires the contractor to provide the purpose, audience, and dates of any publications, presentations, or forums involving aggregated limited rights data. For third party disclosures, the contractor must describe the third party, its association with FDA, and intended use of the limited rights data, and confirm the third party has agreed to the clearance terms and conditions. The FDA and third party must both sign the form, and the contractor provides final signature granting data disclosure clearance.

Note on obtaining copies of proprietary software from contractors

If FDA may wish to receive from a data provider copies of associated proprietary software that was not developed with FDA funds:*

(1) In addition to cross-referencing FAR 52.227-14, the data access agreement should--

a. cross-reference FAR 52.227-14 Alt. III (1987) regarding access to "restricted computer software"; and

b. include the following statement, explaining that such software constitutes "restricted computer software" for purposes of the agreement:

Restricted Computer Software -- For purposes of [Agreement], the definition of Restricted Computer Software provided at FAR 52.227-14 is understood to include any proprietary computer software the development of which FDA did not fund.

(2) The Contractor should provide a Restricted Rights Notice to FDA with the software as provided for at FAR 52.227-14 Alt. III (1987). The content of the notice can be specified in the agreement. Contact legal counsel if the parties wish to use language in the notice that is different from the model language provided at FAR 52.227-14 Alt. III (1987).

*If FDA paid for development of the software, the software would not be "restricted computer software" and these special provisions and procedures would not apply.
