Derivative Work
We ask all users to diligently separate their derivative work and results from data we provide. For example, if Linksbridge has offered you global vaccine demand 2020-2030, you should make clear that an extrapolation you have made through 2035 is solely your work and neither provided nor endorsed by Linksbridge. You may not present, for example, a PowerPoint slide that contains Linksbridge data and your own derivative analysis with a footnote reading, Source: Linksbridge. You must instead clearly indicate the difference between different sources, e.g., Base analysis through 2030 provided by Linksbridge, [date], https://linksbridge.com; 2031-2035 projection made by [your entity].
