Whenever the CMDL conducts research using personally identifiable data, that research is reviewed by an institutional review board, if appropriate, to help ensure the protection of the rights and welfare of research subjects. Research results include only summary or aggregate data reported in such a way that individuals cannot be identified.

In addition, your personal information may be released as permitted by law if such release is deemed necessary to protect the health and safety of customers or others, or to legally protect the Coalition, its customers or service providers.
