# 10. Data Management
As part of the validation and reporting/issuance processes, the project developer and other project partners will report project data to the OCP. All data related to quantification will be made publicly available on the OCP registry. All other project documentation and data will be made available on the OCP registry, with exemptions granted for confidential information, as flagged by the relevant parties.
The OCP stores project documentation and data securely on Amazon Web Services (AWS), which has multiple layer security and has built-in back-up and recovery. [You can read more about AWS’s data protection and security here](https://aws.amazon.com/compliance/data-protection/). Data related to credits (issuance data, quantity, ownership, status etc.) is also stored on the Celo blockchain.
Project Developers should develop separate data management systems depending on their requirements.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://open-carbon-protocol.gitbook.io/ocp-methodology-requirements/sections/10.-data-management.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
