The Certificate cannot be used to resist a demand for information from personnel of the United States federal or state government agency sponsoring the project and that will be used for auditing or program evaluation of agency funded projects or for information that must be disclosed in order to meet the requirements of the federal Food and Drug Administration (FDA). A Certificate of Confidentiality does not prevent a participant or a member of their family from voluntarily releasing information about the participant or their involvement in this research. If an insurer, medical care provider, or other person obtains a participants written consent to receive research information, then the researchers will not use the Certificate to withhold that information.
