Frequently Asked Question Relating to this Decision Tree:
- Does this Decision Tree address Third Party Information, i.e., information generated and/or provided to Cornell employees by outside parties? No.
This Decision Tree does not address Third Party Information, because such information is always controlled. Please notify your project's Grant & Contract Officer (GCO) at Sponsored Programs Services whenever a third party (such as a sponsor or vendor) seeks to provide you with unpublished information.
Your GCO will work with ORIA to take the steps necessary to ensure that your team receives any export-controlled information in a way that maintains the project's status as fundamental research.
