The Teton Lab is bound by safeguards and protocols that protect the people that participate in research, including the proper safeguarding of data collected during registration and experiments.

The Teton Lab takes the following steps to meet its confidentiality requirements:


• Recruitment database. All data collected for registration is stored on a secure server that is accessible only to the lab's research staff. These data are not shared and only used for the purpose of recruiting subjects to participate in the lab's research.


• Information and Data. Any personally-identifying data collected during research is discarded and replaced with a code number that has no connection to the individual. Data is processed according to the approved ethics document of the respective study.


• Forms. All human-subjects forms, such as informed consent forms, containing personally-identifying information are stored separately in secure locations. This information is not linked to data collected during the experiment.

As a human-subject participant in this research, you have the right to contact UW Institutional Review Board to learn more about your rights. You also may submit a complaint if you believe that sensitive information collected during an experiment has not been kept confidential. Such complaints can be delivered to The Teton Lab or to the UW Institutional Review Board.
