Privacy & Data Use

Volunteer Research Hub is designed to support study discovery, recruitment workflows, and participant interest submission. Platform operators should handle personal data in line with university policy, approved research procedures, and applicable privacy requirements.

The platform is intended to collect only the information needed to support listing management, participant discovery, and operational recruitment workflows. Researchers should avoid posting protected health information or confidential protocol materials in public listing content.

Researchers are expected to post only approved study information and to access volunteer contact details only for legitimate recruitment activity tied to an authorized research protocol. Sensitive data handling should remain governed by IRB requirements and institutional policy.
