Withdrawal

Withdrawal

Participants can withdraw from the LOLIPOP Study at any time without providing a reason. Your decision to withdraw will not affect your healthcare or legal rights.

Your continued participation is highly valuable to our ongoing research, and we hope you will choose to stay with us.

Should you decide to withdraw, you have two options, which are described below:

No Further Contact: If you choose this option, we will not contact you again. However, we may continue to use the samples and information provided previously, and to obtain and use further information from your health records.

No Further Access: If you choose this option, we will not contact you again or obtain further information about you. We will anonymise the records we hold about you by erasing all personally identifying information linked to your data. Some personal identifiers stored in secure archives may remain for the lifetime of the archive, but they will not be used again.

You can inform the Study team of your withdrawal by downloading the withdrawal form here, and then return the completed paper or scanned copy to the address shown on the form.

If you have any queries about the way we use your data or samples in the Study, please do not hesitate to contact a member of the research team at lolipop@sabiobank.org.
