This is a legal agreement between you, the end-user (“User”), and PRRI. By downloading the survey data from the PRRI web site (“Data”) you are agreeing to be bound by the terms and conditions of this agreement. If you do not agree to be bound by these terms, do not download or use the Data.
PRRI hereby grants to the User a non-exclusive, revocable, limited, non-transferable license to use the Data solely for (1) research, scholarly or academic purposes, (2) the internal use of your business, or (3) your own personal non-commercial use. You may not reproduce, sell, rent, lease, loan, distribute, or sublicense or otherwise transfer any Data, in whole or in part, to any other party, or use the Data to create any derived product for resale, lease or license. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may incorporate limited portions of the Data in scholarly, research, or academic publications or for the purposes of news reporting, provided you acknowledge the source of the Data (with express references to PRRI, as well as the complete title of the report) and include the following legend:
PRRI bears no responsibility for the analyses or interpretations of the data presented here.
The Data is provided “as is” without any warranty of any kind, either express or implied, arising by law or otherwise, including but not limited to warranties of completeness, non-infringement, accuracy, merchantability, or fitness for a particular purpose. The User assumes all risk associated with use of the data and agrees that in no event shall the center be liable to you or any third party for any indirect, special, incidental, punitive, or consequential damages including, but not limited to, damages for the inability to use equipment or access data, loss of business, loss of revenue or profits, business interruptions, loss of information or data, or other financial loss, arising out of the use of, or inability to use, the data based on any theory of liability including, but not limited to, breach of contract, breach of warranty, tort (including negligence), or otherwise, even if User has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
PRRI has taken measures to ensure that the Data is devoid of information that could be used to identify individuals (e.g., names, telephone numbers, email addresses, social security numbers) who participated in or who were the subject of any research surveys or studies used to collect the Data ("Personally Identifying Information.") However, in the event that you discover any such Personally Identifying Information in the Data, you shall immediately notify PRRI and refrain from using any such Personally Identifying Information.
This license will terminate (1) automatically without notice from PRRI if you fail to comply with the provisions of this agreement, or (2) upon written notice (by e-mail, U.S. or otherwise) from PRRI. Upon termination of this agreement, you agree to destroy all copies of any Data, in whole or in part and in any and all media, in your custody and control.
This agreement shall be governed by, construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the District of Columbia. You further agree to submit to the jurisdiction and venue of the courts of the District of Columbia for any dispute relating to this Agreement.
