Of course. You can withdraw from Time to Talk Public Health at any point. Any personally identifiable information, including your name and contact information, will be deleted following the withdrawal notification. Some non-identifiable information such as age band, gender, and geographical location (e.g. rural/urban) will be retained to help us understand the types of people who withdraw and when.
As reports and other outputs from the data are being regularly produced, it is likely that some of your data will have already been included in an output, and so it will not be possible to withdraw your data from those outputs.
When you notify us that you wish to withdraw, please let us know how you would like to withdraw, as there are two options:
- Option 1: Withdraw your participation going forward but the data you have already kindly given can continue to be used within further analyses and outputs (e.g. allow us to measure changes over time).
- Option 2: Withdraw your participation going forward and remove your data entirely from any further analyses and outputs.
