Dear Sergei, Re “all”. As a researcher my perspective is that one’s funding agency requirement for a data management plan will be the core of what you would need to follow. Your employer may have additional policies and requirements placed on you as an employee. Eg the UK funding agency EPSRC requires data be retained for 10 years. My employer, University of Manchester, has a policy which regards data loss as research malpractice. Central facility data retention policies vary from facility to facility so you would need to check ie for the ones you use. For publication IUCr encourages raw data underpinning a publication be archived and its doi cited. That doi can also be entered into the relevant PDB deposition. Best wishes, John
