Of course\*! | ||
|
||
If your data is not sensitive (i.e. human patient) but just private (sequencing from other animals/bacteria/etc), then it is absolutely ok to use a public galaxy server like usegalaxy.eu or usegalaxy.org! | ||
|
||
Data uploaded is private to your account, it isn't available to others publicly. No one will scoop your results, if you use a public galaxy server to analyse your data :) | ||
|
||
A great benefit of this is then when your paper is being reviewed you can share that history or workflow with reviewers, and when it's published you can click a button to share those results with the world as well, such that others can reproduce your analysis! | ||

(of course system administrators can see the files on disk but they are not interested and will not be looking at your data. If you file a bug report they may see your data but they are system administrators, not bioinformatics experts that might be interested in your results.) |
