The University of St. Andrews's Experimental Economics Laboratory's research-ethics responsibilities include the proper safeguarding of potentially sensitive data collected during an experiment. The University of St. Andrews's Experimental Economics Laboratory takes the following steps to meet its confidentiality requirements:

• All data collected during recruitment is stored on a server that is accessible only to The University of St. Andrews's Experimental Economics Laboratory's research staff and to the members of The University of St. Andrews's IT services. These data are used only for the purpose of recruiting subjects to participate in experiments conducted at the University of St. Andrews's Experimental Economics Laboratory.
• All personally-identifying data collected during an experiment (e.g., your name) is processed according to the approved ethics document of the respective study. Usually, any personal information is replaced with a code number, and the list linking code numbers to personally-identifying data is kept separate from the experimental data.
• All human-subjects forms containing personally-identifying information (e.g., informed consent) are stored in secure locations.

As a human-subject participant in a study conducted at the University of St. Andrews's Experimental Economics Laboratory, it is your right to lodge a complaint if you believe that sensitive information about you collected during an experiment has not actually been kept confidential. Such complaints can be delivered to a member of the Ethics committee of the School of Economics and Finance of the University of St. Andrews.
