Where electronic resources are created by a project supported by HFF, community-agreed standards and best practice must be adopted with adequate provision for the long-term preservation and availability of the resources created. Guidance on suitable standards in the UK is available from the Archaeology Data Service (http://ads.ahds.ac.uk/) and, on completion of the project, electronic data should be offered for deposit with the Archaeology Data Service or a national similar body.

The Foundation accepts no responsibility, financial or otherwise, for expenditure (or liabilities arising out of such expenditure) or for liabilities arising out of the activities funded by the grant.
