When you browse Genesys and download data from genebanks around the world, you are using that data under a legal agreement called the Terms and Conditions of Use. You do not need to sign anything. By accessing the portal, you accept the terms automatically.

If that sounds a bit vague, this post is here to clear things up. We will walk through what the Terms actually say in plain language, so you know exactly what you can and cannot do with the data you find on Genesys.

FAO's e-learning Academy has released a four-course series on data management for plant genetic resources for food and agriculture (PGRFA). The series is completely free and self-paced, and it covers everything from the basic concepts of documenting PGRFA to the tools you need to manage, publish, and use that data in practice. If you work with genebanks, manage germplasm data, or simply want to understand how PGRFA data flows through the global system, this series is an excellent place to start.
