===Note on Sensitive Data/Endangered Species Data===
It is the responsibility of the data provider to obfuscate, mask, or exclude data related to sensitive/endangered species. If any of these data are included in a dataset, iDigBio will not take measures to exclude them. Providers may use [https://terms.tdwg.org/wiki/dwc:informationWithheld dwc:InformationWithheld] to indicate records that have sensitive information withheld; [http://portal.idigbio.org/portal/records/e6c5dffc-4ad1-4d9d-800f-5796baec1f65 see an example record here].
===Note on Federal Data===
iDigBio is actively avoiding the ingestion of federal recordsets into the portal. However, if federal records happen to be included with a valid non-federal specimen records dataset, iDigBio will not take any measures to filter or exclude the federal records.
