Overview

Learn about the ins and outs of SBIR/STTR data rights from both legal and contracting standpoints, so Small Business Concerns (SBCs) better understand their rights. SBIR/STTR data protection is one of the most unique and important protections accorded SBIR and STTR firms. These protections apply to all SBIR and STTR programs phases. The U.S. Government receives a limited nonexclusive license, or right to use, SBIR/STTR Data, but such use cannot include disclosing it in any way. This nondisclosure obligation accompanies a SBIR/STTR data rights protection period.
Per the clause at DFARS 252.227-7018, SBIR/STTR data is defined as all technical data or computer software developed or generated in the performance of a phase I, II, or III SBIR/STTR contract or subcontract. SBIR/STTR data rights means the Government's rights, during the SBIR/STTR data protection period, in SBIR/STTR data covered by paragraph (c)(5) of the clause, which are as follows: (1) Limited rights in such SBIR/STTR technical data; and (2) Restricted rights in such SBIR/STTR computer software.
