The pharmaceutical industry generates a great deal of identifiable data (such as clinical trial data, patient engagement data) that has guardrails around “use and access.” Data captured for the intended purpose of use described in a protocol is called “primary use.” However, once anonymized, this data can be used for other inferences in what we can collectively define as secondary analyses.
