Description

Overview of the Feature Request
Is it possible to include a term of use for those who save the dataset to accept?

We want whoever saves the dataset to read the terms before registering it. It is a specific usage term. It would be necessary to include a checkbox (see attached image).
It would be for the inclusion of each dataset.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the dataset creation, saving, and registration flow for curator-created datasets, with the requested checkbox and attached example as the starting requirements. Define where the dataset-specific terms are shown and how acceptance is recorded before registration; done means a curator must read and accept them for each dataset.
