The Data Landing Portal (DLP) is owned and operated by NHS Digital. Access to and use of DLP is subject to the following terms and conditions which may be updated by us from time to time without notice to you, and all applicable laws.

In consideration of your use of DLP, or any individual or entity on whose behalf a user accesses or uses DLP, you accept, without limitation or qualification, the following "terms and conditions” and agree to be bound by them, by NHS Digital’s terms of use, and by the NHS Digital privacy statement.  Please read these rules carefully and often as they are subject to change.

NHS Digital offers DLP as a secure method to transport data between authorised submitters and receivers. By accessing DLP you agree to abide by these terms and conditions. 

The NHS England national contract states:

"The provider must submit any patient-level data required in relation to local requirements reported locally via the Data Landing Portal in accordance with the Data Landing Portal acceptable use statement." 

This acceptable use statement provides additional guidance for DLP submissions in relation to local requirements reported locally:

• providers must submit PCD patient level data, except backing data flowing directly into the CEfF, via DLP.  CEfF flows should continue to use the approved CEfF email addresses
• pseudo@source patient level data is not required to flow via DLP
• aggregate data is not required to flow via DLP
• DSCROs will manage and process all PCD patient level local data flows that have been both specified in the Schedule 6 and agreed in the DSCRO SLA.  Flows received by the DSCRO which have not been both specified and agreed will be deleted.   
• DSCROs may accept additional flows via DLP.  This is by local arrangement. 
• if the DLP system is unavailable, providers should make local arrangements with the receiving DSCRO to provide the data.

Access to DLP is only available by our express authorisation and only to those who have been assigned an account alongside the appropriate NHS identity or smartcard permissions for this service. 

By using DLP you agree to abide by and to be bound by the terms and conditions identified in the DLP terms and conditions. You further agree that in being assigned a DLP account and in using this data transmission tool, you:

• are the sole user of that account
• are responsible for the user ID for that account
• will under no circumstances allow the user ID and authentication method to be shared with third parties, allow an unauthorised user to have access to DLP, or use the service for anything other than the permitted and originally intended business use
• may be granted access to one or more system access roles and you are restricted to only those roles
• are responsible for protecting the confidentiality and propriety of any documents or other material reviewed, downloaded or copied from DLP by you and are responsible for all content uploaded via DLP.

 Any breach of these restriction may result in:

• immediate termination of your and your organisation’s access to DLP
• liability for damages; and/or
• the application of DLP usage fees, to be determined at NHS Digital’s discretion.
