=== Data stewardship ===
:Data stewardship is a discipline that directs and supports the ethical and responsible creation, collection, management, use, and reuse of data, and is applicable at all scales – from the national or data system level, to the organization or enterprise level, or to the individual or dataset. Data stewardship programs and processes are formalized through repeatable and automated business processes, established roles and accountabilities, and the use of metrics and audits in order to continuously improve data quality. Data stewardship operations influence proactive and responsible data practice to help deliver data strategies, maintain trust, and promote accountability, and it is enabled though good data governance and data management, which provide oversight of data assets throughout their lifecycle to ensure their proper care. <ref name=":5" /><ref name=":1" /><ref name=":7" />
