The authors published in SHARE books' series are responsible for the human subject data that figures in the researches reported here.

The GDPR also allows for the recognition of “the public interest in the availability of the data,” which has a particular saliency for those involved in maintaining, with the greatest integrity possible, the public record of scholarly publishing.
