When your DAA is about to expire, you will get an automated email from notifications@stjude.cloud with the name of the DAA that is expiring and a link to the St. Jude Cloud Extension Addendum.

In order to extend your DAA, you must fill out an Extension Addendum. The Extension Addendum will extend the previous agreement for an additional year. Please note that if you do not fill out an Extension Addendum, you will be expected to delete all copies of the data subject to the expiring agreement.

In this overview, we will explain how to manage your data request(s) from St. Jude Cloud's genomics platform [My Dashboard page](https://platform.stjude.cloud/dashboard) and how to access and manage your data (once it has been vended to you) from within a DNAnexus project. The [DNAnexus](https://www.dnanexus.com/) genomic ecosystem is the backbone for the computation and storage in St. Jude Cloud. This means that each data request in St. Jude Cloud corresponds to a project in DNAnexus. If you'd like, you can read an introduction to the DNAnexus ecosystem [here](https://documentation.dnanexus.com/). If you haven't already, follow [this guide](../requesting-data/data-request.md) to request access to St. Jude data in this secure cloud ecosystem.

## Using Your Data

There are two primary ways you can interact with data vended to you in St. Jude Cloud:

* **Cloud access**. You can choose to work with the data in DNAnexus' genomics cloud ecosystem. This is our suggested method of interaction, as you can avoid downloading the data to your local servers (which both takes time and is error prone). If you choose to leverage this approach, you can either wrap your own analysis pipeline as a cloud app (see [our guide](../analyzing-data/creating-a-cloud-app.md)) or leverage any of DNAnexus' publicly available apps (see [DNAnexus' guide](https://documentation.dnanexus.com/user/running-apps-and-workflows).
* **Download the data** (*not suggested*). The second way to interact with data vended to you in St. Jude Cloud is by downloading the data to your local servers. If you wish to do this, you can download the data on the command line (see [our guide](../analyzing-data/command-line.md)). **Note that you must have indicated you wish to download the data in your [data access agreement](../requesting-data/how-to-fill-out-DAA.md#the-data-access-agreement).**
