Certificate of Confidentiality. This study is covered by a Certificate of Confidentiality (CoC) from the National Institutes of Health. All studies funded by the National Institutes of Health that involve identifiable information or biological samples are covered by a CoC. The CoC is issued to protect the investigators on this study from being forced to tell people that are not connected with this study about your participation in this study, even under a subpoena. This protection, however, is not absolute. The protection offered by the CoC does not stop us from voluntarily reporting information about suspected or known sexual, physical, or other abuse of a child or older person, or a subject's threats of violence to self or others. If any member of the research team is given such information, he or she will make a report to the appropriate authorities. Individuals who participate as research subjects in the specified research project are protected permanently during any time the Certificate is in effect - even if the subject gave the researcher data before the Certificate is issued. Also, because this research is sponsored by NIAAA, staff from NIAAA and other DHHS agencies may review records that identify you but only for the purposes of audit for quality and accuracy or program evaluation. Even when a CoC is in place, you must still continue to actively protect your own privacy. If you voluntarily give your written consent to anyone to receive information about your participation in the research or freely volunteer information to anyone other than the study staff that you are a research participant in this study, then we may not use the CoC to withhold this information. IN CASE OF STUDY RELATED INJURY No medical care, evaluations or financial compensation for research-related injuries or illness will be provided. The costs of such additional treatment will be paid by you or by your health insurance carrier. You also have the right to pursue legal remedy if you believe that your injuries justify such action. Compensation for injury/illness may be payable under the Federal Tort Claims Act. The availability of this compensation may vary depending upon the circumstances involved and there are certain limitations. Please be aware that some insurance plans may not pay for research-related injuries. You should contact your insurance company for more information.
