If you are unable to produce anonymous results in accordance with Findata’s guidelines, but you consider the results to be anonymous, proceed as follows:
- Provide detailed justification for the anonymity of the results when submitting them. The justification must relate only to anonymity, not, for example, to the significance of the study or the importance of publishing the results.
- Include sufficient background information for each type of analysis to enable an assessment of anonymity. This may include, for example, a description of how the study population was formed and the number of observations.
- Please note that verifying the anonymity of results that require case-by-case assessment may take longer than usual.
