Can a data provider be contacted directly by other LDS users?

In the LDS marketplace, transactions take place exclusively on a peer-to-peer basis.

Once data consumers have found a suitable data product in the LDS marketplace, they can send an access request to the provider's connector via the Negotiate button. The access request will be checked against the terms and conditions set for the chosen offer. Depending on the offer's policy, the data consumer may be asked to perform additional actions (e.g., pay for resources that are available on-a-fee). The data product can be transferred from the provider’s to the consumer’s connector only once all policy terms are fulfilled.
