WHO WILL SEE THE INFORMATION THAT YOU GIVE?

When I write about or share the results from the pilot study, I will write about the combined information. I will keep your name and other identifying information private and confidential.

I will make every effort to prevent anyone who is not on the research team (Doctoral Committee) from knowing that you gave me information, or what that information is. All information will be securely stored on my personal computer and personal hard drive to be locked in a safe and secure portable storage box. This will include papers, audio recordings, researcher’s journal, etc.

You should know that there are some circumstances in which I may have to show your information to other people because this is my research project towards completion of my Doctorate in Educational Leadership. For example, the law may require me to share your information with the University of Kentucky, and my doctoral committee who may look at or copy pertinent portions of records that identify you.

I will make every effort to safeguard your data, but as with anything online, we cannot guarantee the security of data obtained via the Internet. Third-party applications used in this study may have Terms of Service and Privacy policies outside of the control of the University of Kentucky.
