1. Not to make copies of any files or portions of files to which access has been granted except with the authorization by GSS

2. Not to willfully identify any individual or household or establishment in the microdataset

3. To hold in strictest confidence, the identity of any individual or household or establishment that may be inadvertently revealed in any documents or discussion, or analysis. Such unintended identification revealed should be immediately brought to the attention of GSS.

4. Microdata obtained from GSS are protected by copyright law and therefore not for re-distribution or sale

5. Prospective clients or data users may be required to submit and sign an affidavit of confidentiality of microdata they access

The Ghana Statistical Service as a public institution has the obligation to promote data dissemination to facilitate national development. Making mcrodata available will enable students and the academia to conduct research works, assist investors to take business decision, help the individual to evaluate and take appropriate decisions. It will also assist the government to formulate appropriate policies and programmes to facilitate national development. GSS' policy framework provides access to data through:
