CAIDA ACCEPTABLE USE AGREEMENT
(ver 071814)

The following terms comprise the Acceptable Use Policy (AUP) and Data License Agreement
(collectively, the "AGREEMENT", or, "Acceptable Use Agreement (AUA)" for all datasets made

at the University of California San Diego (UCSD) and governed by The Regents of the University
of California. Certain datasets may have additional Supplemental provisions. References to this
AGREEMENT shall include any and all relevant Supplemental provisions.

CAIDA has the authority and reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to refuse requests for

CAIDA at any time for any purpose.

(ii) You consent that CAIDA can make public or otherwise disclose Your name as the registered
requestor, the name of Your Affiliated Institution, the name of the dataset(s) that CAIDA has
made available to You under this AUA, and the brief description of the type of research being
undertaken that You provided to CAIDA.

(iii) You will abide by any and all modifications. If a modification occurs, it will be explicitly
communicated to You via Your registered email address and shall become effective fifteen (15)
days after the transmission of such notification. Your continued access to or use of the data
after such time shall indicate Your assent to any and all modification(s). If You do not agree to

longer access or use this data.

3. USE RESTRICTIONS

If You have any concerns or questions about these restrictions, You are encouraged to contact
CAIDA management via email to data-info@caida.org. To obtain an exemption from
any of these restrictions, You will need a written authorization from CAIDA management.

(i) While using non-anonymized data set(s), You will respect the privacy of persons that may
be identified in the data. For any publication or other disclosure, You will anonymize or
de-identify personally-identifiable information, IP addresses, and other data identified in Supplemental
provisions (if any) by using commonly accepted techniques such as one of the methods recommended
by CAIDA
(https://www.caida.org/projects/predict/anonymization/).

(ii) While using anonymized data set(s), You will not attempt to reverse engineer, decrypt, de-anonymize,
derive or otherwise re-identify anonymized information.

(iii) You will not distribute, disclose, transfer or otherwise make available the dataset(s) to any
person other than those employed by your institute who are assisting or collaborating with
You using the dataset(s). Other entities with whom You are collaborating in research using the
dataset(s) must request access to the dataset(s) separately and directly from CAIDA.

(iv) All conditions, restrictions and obligations attached to this data shall accompany any and all
subsequent uses and disclosures of this dataset by You. Therefore, You are personally and
fully responsible for communicating this AUA and ensuring its compliance as to any and all

(i) If You create a publication (including web pages, papers published by a third party, and
publicly available presentations) using data from this dataset, You must provide CAIDA with
a copy of (or a link to) the publication and You must cite the data as follows:

   https://www.caida.org/data/[dataset-URL]

(ii) At the end of the research, or semi-annually (whichever is sooner), You will report a summary

our funding agencies.

(iii) You agree to expunge any and all copies of the received Dataset(s) upon completion or termination
of stated research and/or termination of data access or use. Completion of stated research shall
allow for a reasonable period of time that You may need to retain the dataset(s) in order to
satisfy scientific reproducibility obligations.

5. ACCOUNTABILITY AND ENFORCEMENT

(i) You agrees to safeguard any and all sensitive data as required, or may be required, by law by
using at least the same degree of care that You uses for its own data of a like nature but no less
than a reasonable degree of care, to protect the confidentiality of data and/or the privacy of any
identifiable person and to prevent its unauthorized disclosure and use. Data is confidential if it
is marked as such, if by its nature or content is reasonably distinguishable as confidential, or if
You have reasonable cause to believe that its disclosure to a third party would cause harm or
damage.

Data is not confidential, and therefore not sensitive if: (a) You already knew the data before
it was disclosed to You by CAIDA; (b) You gain subsequent knowledge of the data by either
lawfully obtaining it from another source under no obligation of confidentiality, or You develop
it independently; (c) the data is or becomes generally available to the public through no
wrongful act of You or any other party; (e) it is required to be disclosed under applicable
law, regulation or court order provided You notify CAIDA prior to making such a disclosure
so that CAIDA may take appropriate action.

(ii) You will notify CAIDA immediately of all relevant details if: (a) confidentiality or privacy
is compromised; or (b) You receive any legal, investigatory, or other government demand
to reverse engineer, decrypt, de-anonymize or otherwise disclose anonymized or confidential
data.

(iii) If requested, You will provide CAIDA evidence of compliance with this AGREEMENT, such
as a written description of Your data protection plan or a written affirmation that You have
disposed of any and all copies of the received dataset from all systems reasonably known to
you.

(iv) DISCLAIMER OFWARRANTIES. CAIDA USES ITS BEST EFFORTS TO PROVIDE DATA
IN ACCORDANCE WITH ETHICAL PRINCIPLES AND SCIENTIFIC INTEGRITY.
HOWEVER, THE DATA PROVIDED HEREIN IS ON AN "AS IS" BASIS. NEITHER CAIDA,

NOT LIMITED TO, THE ACCURACY, TIMELINESS, COMPLETENESS, RELIABILITY,
OR AVAILABILITY OF CAIDA DATA, APPLICATIONS, OR SERVICES ACCESSIBLE
THROUGH OR MADE AVAILABLE BY CAIDA.

TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW, YOU WILL INDEMNIFY, DEFEND AND HOLD
HARMLESS CAIDA AND THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA FROMALL LIABILITIES,
CLAIMS, DEMANDS, COSTS, JUDGMENTS, DAMAGES, LOSSES AND EXPENSES
ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH ANY USE OF THE DATA BY YOU. IN
