112		-\\**Human Data Gateway, Background**
113		-HDG was introduced in February 2021 and developed across multiple teams in the HBP. The initiative to create the service and the initial design originated from EBRAINS Curation in close collaboration with the Data compliance team and the HBP Data Governance Working Group. HDG is a response to the needs of multiple data providers who are bringing data of human origin to EBRAINS. HDG covers the sharing of a limited range of data of human origin, i.e., data without direct identifiers and with very few indirect identifiers (strongly pseudonymized, de-identified). It is an extension of the existing services and does not replace the future EBRAINS Service for sensitive data (planned for 2024) which is outside the domain of the current EBRAINS Data and Knowledge services.
