User Undertaking

The Longitudinal Surveys of Australian Youth (LSAY) is managed by the National Centre for Vocational Education Research (NCVER) on behalf of the Australian Government Department of Education.

NCVER will provide access to the nominated dataset only if the individual requesting access undertakes to comply with the terms and conditions. Individuals must accurately identify themselves when interacting with any entity or technology supporting access to LSAY data. Applications must accurately reflect the intended use of the data. NCVER either directly or through an entity delivering services on its behalf, may seek to verify an applicant’s identity and/or confirm the intended use of the data.

    4. Comply, so far as is reasonably practicable, with all guidelines published by the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner which are relevant to that party’s role in the data matching/linking activities/project but which are not mandatorily imposed on that party,
    5. And ensure compliance with this clause by my employees, agents and subcontractors.

  3. Store and protect the data from misuse, interference and loss and from unauthorised access, modification or disclosure, including:
