No. You can choose the access options for your dataset. The DANS Data Stations offer the option to publish your data as Open Access or to restrict the access to all or some files of your dataset. DANS advises that you publish your data “as open as possible, as closed as necessary”.
If you choose to restrict access to a dataset, you can enable a permission request which means that users can request access to the data. You will then need to give these users permission before they can access your data.
It is also possible to restrict access without allowing permission requests – the restricted files are then not accessible to any data station users, but they are still archived and preserved for the long-term.
Information about access restriction choices can be found in the depositing manual.
