Global Alliance for Genomics and Health: Accountability Policy
Stakeholders involved in oversight of data sharing and data users (e.g., employers or guarantors) should establish clear policies and processes to address cases of non-compliance. In the context of this Policy, non-compliance should be understood in relation to locally adopted data sharing standards. Categories of non-compliance may include:

Data misuse (non-compliance with applicable laws, regulations, guidelines, policies, approved protocol, or access agreements);
Data breach (the wrongful release of data, whether as a result of accident, negligence or malice);
Data hoarding (unreasonable or unjustified withholding of data);
Non-compliance with security procedures;
Provision of inaccurate or incomplete data or information (e.g., in data submission, access application, or progress report);
Failure to obtain prior ethics approval before starting a research project, if required;
Failure to appropriately acknowledge the efforts of contributors;
Failure to respect benefit sharing requirements; or
Inadequate supervision of research by an employer or guarantor.
