The analyses in this article are of secondary data from Norwegian state registers. We analyzed the data with concession from The Norwegian Data Protection Authority, and under the auspices of a confidentiality agreement with Statistics Norway. All direct identifiers were stripped from the file prior to analysis. Data were handled in such a way as to protect individual’s privacy and confidentiality. This included storing these data on a secure Research Computing server and requiring each researcher working with the data to sign a confidentiality affidavit. Other parties may not access the data because it would violate the concession given by The Norwegian Data Protection Authority, and the confidentiality agreement with Statistics Norway. This prevents us from uploading the data to a public repository. 
Researchers may apply to get access to such data, and the procedure one needs to follow is described at Statistics Norway’s webpage:
