By uploading this dataset to Boston University’s BIDS-fNIRS repository, I agree to the following terms and conditions:

• I am the owner of the scans, images and data (together, “data”) that I have uploaded and have all necessary IRB and/or ethics permissions to share the data publicly.
• This dataset does not include any individually identifiable personal information, including names, zip codes, dates of birth, acquisition month and date and any other personal identifiers listed here.
• I agree that the data will become publicly available under a Creative Commons CC0 License after a grace period of 36 months counted from the date this dataset was created. You will be able to apply for up to two 12 month extensions to increase the grace period in case the publication of a corresponding paper takes longer than expected. Once the data becomes publicly available, our BIDS-fNIRS server may automatically upload the data to the OpenNeuro database, and you hereby authorize us to upload the data to the OpenNeuro database at that time.
• I represent that the data is not subject to data protection laws or regulations of the European Union, United Kingdom, China, Hong Kong, Brazil, or South Africa.

• I understand that Boston University may terminate BIDS-fNIRS at any time for any reason and may delete all the data in the BIDS-fNIRS repository at that time.

Please affirm one of the following:

• You are not uploading structural scans of research participants.
• If you are uploading structural scans, you have either (i) defaced the scans, obscuring any tissue on or near the face that could potentially be used to reconstruct the facial structure, or (ii) obtained explicit participant consent and ethical authorization to publish structural scans without defacing.
