In a few situations, you may need to create your own DataSuds user account. More precisely,
- to submit a request to download any file which access was restricted by its owner;
- to deposit your own dataset, if you are working in a project in collaboration with IRD;
- to help colleagues preparing a new dataset, such as proof reading or editing information.
