Use & attribution

Use your figures. Keep control of your data.

VennScope is a research, educational and exploratory tool for set analysis, data comparison and figure preparation.

About VennScope

VennScope was developed by Ronald Saraswat, PhD, and is presented as a scientific software project of Saraswat Integrated Services Private Limited.

Software

VennScope is not offered as open-source software. The application code and original VennScope interface are not offered for copying, redistribution, resale or incorporation into another software product without permission. Third-party materials, if any, remain subject to their own licences.

Your data

Data and identifiers entered into VennScope remain yours. VennScope does not claim ownership of your scientific or other input data. Standard set analysis is performed locally in the browser.

Figures you create

Figures generated with VennScope may be used in publications, presentations, teaching, websites and other work. Where VennScope contributes copyrightable visual elements to a generated figure, those VennScope-owned elements are offered under CC BY 4.0 with attribution. Your own data and third-party content are not transferred to VennScope or relicensed by VennScope.

Suggested attribution: Figure generated with VennScope v0.16 (https://vennscope.saraswatintegratedservices.com/) — CC BY 4.0.

Identifier mapping

Optional identifier mapping uses named public reference services and is separate from standard browser-local analysis. Review mapped, unmapped and one-to-many results before using a derived mapped dataset. Mapping provenance should be retained with consequential or publication analyses.

Scientific responsibility

VennScope calculates results from the inputs and settings you provide. Before publication or other consequential use, independently check important data, analysis choices, results and scientific interpretation. VennScope is not a medical, diagnostic or clinical decision-support tool.

Export provenance

A provenance receipt records a cryptographic fingerprint and technical export information. It is optional unless you choose a verified export. A receipt can help establish whether exact file bytes match a registered VennScope export; it does not certify that the scientific interpretation is correct.
