Recordings and Project-Specific

 

Consent

Certain research projects may involve audio recordings, video recordings, photographs, screen recordings, or other forms of participant-generated content.

 

For these projects, participants may be asked to provide additional project-specific consent regarding the recording, use, or disclosure of such content. Any additional consent will be presented separately and will apply only to the specific project for which it is obtained.

 

Participants may choose whether to grant such consent when offered, and declining consent will not affect the handling of information beyond the scope of that specific authorization.
