The World Anti-Doping International Standard for the Protection of Privacy 
and Personal Information is a mandatory 
International Standard developed as part of the World Anti-Doping Program.
WADA and 
Anti-Doping Organizations share responsibility for ensuring that Personal Information Processed in connection with Anti-Doping Activities is 
protected as required by data protection and privacy laws, principles and standards. The main purpose of this 
International Standard is to ensure that organizations and 
Persons involved in anti-doping in sport apply appropriate, 
sufficient and effective privacy protections to Personal Information that they Process, regardless of whether this is also required by applicable laws.
A 
WADA expert reference group reviewed, discussed and prepared this document, and specifically took into account the Organization for Economic 
Cooperation and Development's (OECD) 1980 Guidelines on the Protection of Privacy and Transborder Flows of Personal Data; the Council of Europe 
Convention for the Protection of Individuals with regard to Automatic Processing of Personal Data (ETS. No. 108); the APEC Privacy Framework;
the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union, Directive 95/46/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 24 October 1995 
on the Processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data, and other international and regional data privacy rules and standards.

PART ONE: INTRODUCTION, CODE PROVISIONS AND DEFINITIONS
Introduction and Scope
The purpose of the International Standard for the Protection of Privacy and 
Personal Information is to ensure that 
Anti-Doping Organizations apply 
appropriate, sufficient and effective privacy protections to the Personal 
Information they Process when conducting anti-doping programs, in recognition of the fact that Personal Information gathered in the anti-doping context can 
impinge upon and implicate the privacy rights of 
Persons involved in and associated with organized sport.
The 
Code, in particular, requires 
Athletes and 
Athlete Support Personnel to 
furnish a significant amount of Personal Information
to 
Anti-Doping 
Organizations. As a result, it is essential that 
Anti-Doping Organizations
appropriately protect the Personal Information that they Process both to meet 
legal standards and to ensure the continued confidence and trust of those
involved in organized sport.
The 
Code recognizes and affirms the importance of ensuring that the privacy 
rights of 
Persons subject to anti-doping programs based on the 
Code are fully 
respected. In support of this commitment, this 
International Standard provides 
mandatory rules and standards relating to the protection of Personal Information
by 
Anti-Doping Organizations.
Consistent with other 
International Standards that have been developed and 
implemented to date, this 
International Standard sets forth a minimum, common 
set of rules to which 
Anti-Doping Organizations must conform when collecting and handling Personal Information pursuant to the 
Code. In some cases, 
Anti-
Doping Organizations may be required by applicable laws to apply rules or standards that exceed those set forth in this Standard. For purposes of this 
International Standard, definitions appearing in the 
Code shall be italicized, and 
additional definitions created for purposes of this 
International Standard shall be 
The following articles of the 
Code are directly relevant to this International 
Standard for the Protection of Privacy and Personal Information:
 
Code Article 14
Confidentiality and Reporting
The principles of coordination of anti-doping results, public transparency and 
accountability and respect for the privacy of all 
Athletes or other 
Persons are as

Status Reports.
Except with respect to investigations which have not resulted in notice of 
an anti-doping rule violation pursuant to Article 14.1.1, the 
Anti-Doping 
Organizations referenced in Article 14.1.2 shall be regularly updated on 
the status and findings of any review or proceedings conducted pursuant to Article 7, 8 or 13 and shall be provided with a prompt written reasoned 
explanation or decision explaining the resolution of the matter.
The recipient organizations shall not disclose this information beyond 
those 
Persons with a need to know (which would include the appropriate personnel at the applicable 
National Olympic Committee, National 
Federation, and team in a 
Team Sport) until the 
Anti-Doping Organizationwith results management responsibility has made 
Public Disclosure or has 
failed to make 
Public Disclosure as required in Article 14.3.
[Comment to Article 14.1.5: Each Anti-Doping Organization shall provide, in its 
own anti-doping rules, procedures for the protection of confidential information 
and for investigating and disciplining improper disclosure of confidential 
information by any employee or agent of the Anti-Doping Organization.]
Notice of Anti-Doping Rule Violation Decisions and Request for 
2015 ISPPPI – 20 February 2014
Anti-doping rule violation decisions rendered pursuant to 
Article 7.10, 8.4, 10.4, 10.5, 10.6, 10.12.3 or 13.5 shall include the full reasons for the decision, including, if applicable, a justification

Anti-Doping 
Organization shall provide a short English or French summary of the 
decision and the supporting reasons.
An 
Anti-Doping Organization having a right to appeal a 
decision received pursuant to Article 14.2.1 may, within 15 days of 
receipt, request a copy of the full case file pertaining to the 
14.3 
Public Disclosure.
The identity of any 
Athlete or other 
Person who is 
asserted by an 
Anti-Doping Organization to have committed an 
anti-doping rule violation, may be 
Publicly Disclosed by the 
Anti-
Doping Organization with results management responsibility only 
after notice has been provided to the 
Athlete or other 
Person in accordance with Article 7.3, 7.4, 7.5, 7.6 or 7.7, and to the 
applicable 
Anti-Doping Organizations in accordance with Article 14.1.2.
No later than twenty days after it has been determined in 
a final appellate decision under Article 13.2.1 or 13.2.2, or such 
appeal has been waived, or a hearing in accordance with Article 8 
has been waived, or the assertion of an anti-doping rule violation 
has not otherwise been timely challenged, the 
Anti-Doping 
Organization responsible for results management must 
Publicly 
Report the disposition of the anti-doping matter including the sport, 
the anti-doping rule violated, the name of the 
Athlete or other 
Person committing the violation, the 
Prohibited Substance or 
Prohibited Method involved and the

doping rule violations, including the information described above.
In any case where it is determined, after a hearing or 
appeal, that the 
Athlete or other 
Person did not commit an anti-
doping rule violation, the decision may be 
Publicly Disclosed only with the consent of the 
Athlete or other 
Person who is the subject 
of the decision. The 
Anti-Doping Organization with results 
management responsibility shall use reasonable efforts to obtain 
such consent, and if consent is obtained, shall 
Publicly Disclose the 
decision in its entirety or in such redacted form as the 
Athlete or 
other 
Person may approve.
Publication shall be accomplished at a minimum by 
placing the required information on the 
Anti-Doping Organization'
swebsite and leaving the information up for the longer of one month 
or the duration of any period of 
Ineligibility.
2015 ISPPPI – 20 February 2014
No 
Anti-Doping Organization
or 
WADA-accredited 
laboratory, or official of either, shall publicly comment on the specific facts of any pending case (as opposed to general 
description of process and science) except in response to public comments attributed to the 
Athlete, other 
Person or their 
The mandatory 
Public Reporting required in 14.3.2 shall 
not be required where the 
Athlete or other 
Person who has been 
found to have committed an anti-doping rule violation is a 
Minor. 
Any optional 
Public Reporting in a case involving a 
Minor shall be 
proportionate to the facts and circumstances of the case.
14.4 Statistical Reporting.
Anti-Doping Organizations shall, at least annually, publish publicly a 
general statistical report of their 
Doping Control activities, with a copy 
provided to 
WADA. Anti-Doping Organizations may also publish reports 
showing the name of each 
Athlete tested and the date of each 
Testing. 
WADA shall, at least annually, publish statistical reports summarizing the information that it receives from 
Anti-Doping Organizations and 
14.5 
Doping Control Information Clearinghouse.
WADA shall act as a central clearinghouse for 
Doping Control Testing data 
and results, including, in particular, 
Athlete Biological Passport data for 
International-Level Athletes and 
National-Level Athletes and whereabouts 
information for 
Athletes including those in 
Registered Testing Pools. To facilitate coordinated test distribution planning and to avoid unnecessary 
duplication in 
Testing by various 
Anti-Doping Organizations, each 
Anti-Doping Organization shall report all 
In-Competition and 
Out-of-
Competition tests on such 
Athletes to the 
WADA clearinghouse, using 
ADAMS or another system approved by 
WADA, as soon as possible after 
such tests have been conducted. This information will be made accessible, 
where appropriate and in accordance with the applicable rules, to the 
Athlete, the 
Athlete's National Anti-Doping Organization and International 
Federation, and any other 
Anti-Doping Organizations with 
Testing
authority over the 
Athlete.
To enable it to serve as a clearinghouse for 
Doping Control Testing data 
and results management decisions, 
WADA has developed a database management tool, 
ADAMS, that reflects data privacy principles. In 
particular, 
WADA has developed 
ADAMS to be consistent with data privacy 
statutes and norms applicable to 
WADA and other organizations using 
ADAMS. Private information regarding an 
Athlete, Athlete Support 
Personnel, or others involved in anti-doping activities shall be maintained 
by 
WADA, which is supervised by Canadian privacy authorities, in strict 
confidence and in accordance with the International Standard for the 
Protection of Privacy and Personal Information.
14.6 Data Privacy.
2015 ISPPPI – 20 February 2014
Anti-Doping Organizations may collect, store, process or disclose personal 
information relating to 
Athletes and other 
Persons where necessary and appropriate to conduct their anti-doping activities under the 
Code and
International Standards (including specifically the International Standardfor the Protection of Privacy and Personal Information), and in compliance 
with applicable law.
[Comment to Article 14.6: Note that Article 22.2 provides that "Each 
government will put in place legislation, regulation, policies or administrative 
practices for cooperation and sharing of information with Anti-Doping 
Organizations and sharing of data among Anti-Doping Organizations as provided 
in the Code."]
Terms and Definitions
Selected Defined Terms from the Code
Anti-Doping Organization: A 
Signatory that is responsible for adopting rules 
for initiating, implementing or enforcing any part of the 
Doping Control process. 
This includes, for example, the International Olympic Committee, the International Paralympic Committee, other 
Major Event Organizations that 
conduct 
Testing at their 
Events, 
WADA, International Federations, and 
National Anti-Doping Organizations.
Athlete: Any 
Person who competes in sport at the international level (as defined 
by each International Federation) or the national level (as defined by each 
National Anti-Doping Organization). An 
Anti-Doping Organization has discretion 
to apply anti-doping rules to an 
Athlete who is neither an 
International-Level Athlete nor a 
National-Level Athlete, and thus to bring them within the definition 
of "Athlete." In relation to 
Athletes who are neither 
International-Level nor 
National-Level Athletes, an 
Anti-Doping Organization may elect to: conduct 
limited 
Testing or no 
Testing at all; analyze 
Samples for less than the full menu 
of 
Prohibited Substances; require limited or no whereabouts information; or not 
require advance 
TUEs. However, if an Article 2.1, 2.3 or 2.5 anti-doping rule 
violation is committed by any 
Athlete over whom an 
Anti-Doping Organization
has authority who competes below the international or national level, then the 
Consequences set forth in the 
Code (except Article 14.3.2) must be applied. For 
purposes of Article 2.8 and Article 2.9 and for purposes of anti-doping information and education, any 
Person who participates in sport under the 
authority of any 
Signatory, government, or other sports organization accepting the 
Code is an 
Athlete.
[Comment: This definition makes it clear that all International- and National-
Level Athletes are subject to the anti-doping rules of the Code, with the precise 
definitions of international- and national-level sport to be set forth in the anti-
doping rules of the International Federations and National Anti-Doping 
Organizations, respectively. The definition also allows each National Anti-Doping 
Organization, if it chooses to do so, to expand its anti-doping program beyond 
International- or National-Level Athletes to competitors at lower levels of Competition or to individuals who engage in fitness activities but do not compete 
at all. Thus, a National Anti-Doping Organization could, for example, elect to test 
2015 ISPPPI – 20 February 2014
recreational-level competitors but not require advance TUEs. But an anti-doping 
rule violation involving an Adverse Analytical Finding or Tampering results in all of the Consequences provided for in the Code (with the exception of Article 
14.3.2). The decision on whether Consequences apply to recreational-level Athletes who engage in fitness activities but never compete is left to the National 
Anti-Doping Organization. In the same manner, a Major Event Organization 
holding an Event only for masters-level competitors could elect to test the 
competitors but not analyze Samples for the full menu of Prohibited Substances. 
Competitors at all levels of Competition should receive the benefit of anti-doping 
information and education.]
Athlete Support Personnel: Any coach, trainer, manager, agent, team staff, 
official, medical, paramedical personnel, parent or any other 
Person working with, treating or assisting an 
Athlete participating in or preparing for sports 
Participant: Any 
Athlete or 
Athlete Support Person.
Defined Terms from the International Standard on Privacy and 
Anti-Doping Activities: Activities specified by the 
Code and the 
International 
Standards to be carried out by 
Anti-Doping Organizations, and their Third-Party Agents, for the purpose of establishing whether anti-doping rule violations took 
place, including collecting whereabouts information; conducting 
Testing;
performing results management; determining whether an 
Athlete'
s Use of a 
Prohibited Substance or 
Prohibited Method is strictly limited to legitimate and 
documented therapeutic purposes; educating 
Participants on their rights and 
responsibilities; conducting investigations into anti-doping rule violations; and 
initiating legal proceedings against those who are alleged to have committed 
such a violation.
Personal Information: Information, including without limitation Sensitive 
Personal Information, relating to an identified or identifiable 
Participant or 
relating to other 
Persons whose information is Processed solely in the context of 
an 
Anti-Doping Organization'
s Anti-Doping Activities.
[3.2 Comment: It is understood that Personal Information includes, but is not limited to, information relating to an Athlete's name, date of birth, contact 
details and sporting affiliations, whereabouts, designated therapeutic use exemptions (if any), anti-doping test results, and results management (including 
disciplinary hearings, appeals and sanctions). Personal Information also includes 
personal details and contact information relating to other Persons, such as 
medical professionals and other Persons working with, treating or assisting an 
Athlete in the context of Anti-Doping Activities. Such information remains 
Personal Information and is regulated by this Standard for the entire duration of 
its Processing, irrespective of whether the relevant individual remains involved in 
organized sport.]
2015 ISPPPI – 20 February 2014
Processing (and its cognates, Process and Processed): Collecting, retaining, 
storing, disclosing, transferring, transmitting, amending, deleting or otherwise making use of Personal Information.
Security Breach: Any unauthorized and/or unlawful Processing of, including access to, Personal Information whether in electronic or hard-copy or other 
form, or interference with an information system, that compromises the privacy, 
security, confidentiality or integrity of Personal Information.
Sensitive Personal Information: Personal Information relating to a 
Participant's
racial or ethnic origin, commission of offences (criminal or otherwise), health (including information derived from analyzing an 
Athlete's Samples or 
Specimens) and genetic information.
Third Party: Any natural 
Person or legal entity other than the natural 
Person to 
whom the relevant Personal Information relates, 
Anti-Doping Organizations and 
Third-Party Agents.
Third-Party Agent: Any natural or legal 
Person, public authority, agency or body, 
including without limitation subcontractors and their subcontractors, that
Processes Personal Information for or on behalf of an 
Anti-Doping Organization.
PART TWO: STANDARDS FOR HANDLING PERSONAL INFORMATION
Processing Personal Information in Accordance with International 
Standard and Applicable Law
This 
International Standard sets forth a minimum set of requirements 
of Personal Information by 
Anti-Doping 
Organizations and their Third-Party Agents in the context of their Anti-Doping 
Activities. All 
Anti-Doping Organizations must comply with this Standard, even 
when its requirements exceed those arising under the 
Anti-Doping Organization'
s
applicable data protection and/or privacy laws, reflecting the vital need to 
protect the privacy of 
Participants and other 
Persons involved in and associated 
with anti-doping in sport.
[4.1 Comment: Anti-Doping Organizations, along with any Third-Party Agents
that Process Personal Information for or on behalf of Anti-Doping Organizations, minimally must comply with the requirements set forth in this International 
Standard, provided that such compliance does not breach other applicable laws. 
In cases where compliance with the requirements of this International Standard 
may cause an Anti-Doping Organization to breach other applicable laws, those 
laws shall prevail. This result will not lead to a determination of non-compliance 
with the World Anti-Doping Code.]
Anti-Doping Organizations may be subject to data protection and privacy 
laws and regulations that impose requirements that exceed those arising under this 
International Standard. In such circumstances, 
Anti-Doping Organizations
must ensure that their Processing of Personal Information complies with all such data protection and privacy laws and regulations
.
2015 ISPPPI – 20 February 2014
[4.2 Comment: Anti-Doping Organizations in certain countries may be subject to 
laws and regulations that govern their Processing of Personal Informationrelating to natural Persons in addition to Participants, such as their own 
employees or staff employed by other Anti-Doping Organizations, or impose additional restrictions going beyond this International Standard. In all such 
cases, Anti-Doping Organizations are expected to comply with applicable data 
protection laws and regulations.]
Processing Relevant and Proportionate Personal Information
Anti-Doping Organizations shall only Process Personal Information where 
relevant, in order to conduct Anti-Doping Activities under the 
Code and 
International Standards, or where otherwise required by applicable law, 
regulation or compulsory legal process, provided such Processing does not 
conflict with applicable privacy and data protection laws.
Anti-Doping Organizations shall not Process Personal Information that is 
irrelevant or unnecessary in the context of their Anti-Doping Activities as 
identified in Article 5.1.
[5.2 Comment: Anti-Doping Organizations shall examine the different contexts in which they Process Personal Information to ensure that the Processing of the 
Personal Information in any given case is required in order to satisfy one of the purposes identified in Article 5.1. Where Anti-Doping Organizations cannot 
satisfy themselves that the Processing is necessary, they shall refrain from Processing the Personal Information.]
In particular, except as otherwise required by the 
Code or expressly 
a. Anti-Doping Organizations Processing Personal Information (which may 
involve Processing Sensitive Personal Information relating to 
Athletes and Processing non-Sensitive Personal Information relating to 
Participants and 
potentially other 
Persons) in order to determine whether an 
Athlete'
s Use
of a 
Prohibited Substance or 
Prohibited Method is strictly limited to 
legitimate and documented therapeutic purposes, shall Process only the 
Personal Information
appropriate and relevant
determination as required by the International Standard for Therapeutic 
Use Exemptions.
b. 
Anti-Doping Organizations Processing Personal Information relating to
Participants and other 
Persons in order to perform 
Testing, shall Process
only the Personal Information (including whereabouts information and Therapeutic Use Exemptions) appropriate and relevant for conducting
Testing (e.g., test distribution planning, 
Sample collection, 
Sample
handling, 
Sample transport to the laboratory or associated matters) in 
accordance with the 
Code and/or the International Standard for Testing
and Investigations.
c. 
Anti-Doping Organizations Processing Personal Information relating to 
Participants and other 
Persons in order to engage in investigation and 
results management (including associated disciplinary hearings, appeals 
2015 ISPPPI – 20 February 2014
and adjudications) shall Process only the Personal Information, including 
but not limited to whereabouts information, Therapeutic Use Exemptions, and test results, appropriate and relevant for investigating and 
establishing one or more anti-doping rule violations.
d. 
Anti-Doping Organizations may Process Personal Information relating
to 
Participants and other 
Persons for other specified purposes, provided 
that those purposes relate exclusively to the fight against doping and are 
found to be relevant to that fight following an appropriately documented 
assessment performed by the 
Anti-Doping Organization.
[5.3.d. Comment: In certain contexts, it may be appropriate or necessary for 
Anti-Doping Organizations to Process Personal Information for additional 
purposes, besides those identified in Articles 5.3.a.-c., in order to engage 
effectively in the fight against doping. Such purposes may include, for example, 
the development and improvement of test planning and Testing procedures and 
processes. Such Processing must be exclusively linked to the fight against 
doping and may only occur where the Anti-Doping Organization has documented 
the need to perform such Processing.]
Personal Information Processed by 
Anti-Doping Organizations shall be 
processed fairly and shall be accurate, complete and kept up-to-date. 
Anti-Doping Organizations shall correct or amend as soon as possible any Personal 
Information that they know to be incorrect or inaccurate, taking into account the responsibilities of 
Participants such as under Article 14.3 of the 
Code and Article
11 of the International Standard for Testing and Investigations.
[5.4 Comment: Where Participants are responsible for providing Personal 
Information about themselves directly to Anti-Doping Organizations and for 
keeping it accurate, complete and up-to-date, they should be informed of this 
obligation and, whenever practicable, offered reasonable means to fulfill it. For 
instance, this could involve furnishing individuals with access to their Personal 
Information via the Internet through online tools and resources.]
Processing Personal Information in Accordance with Law or with 
Anti-Doping Organizations shall only Process Personal Information:
on valid legal grounds, which can include compliance with legal 
obligations, fulfillment of a contract or to protect the vital interests of the 
Participant and other 
Persons; or
where permitted, with a 
Participant's or other 
Person's informed 
consent, subject to the exceptions in Article 6.2.b, 6.3 and 6.4 of this 
[6.1 Comment: This International Standard envisions that Personal Informationwill be Processed in cases where the law expressly provides for its Processing or 
with the consent of Participants, subject to appropriate exceptions to avoid Participants or other ersons undermining the Code. Principal responsibility for 
obtaining the consent of an Athlete, and/or his or her associated Athlete Support 
2015 ISPPPI – 20 February 2014
Personnel, shall rest with the Anti-Doping Organization(s) that places the 
relevant Athlete in its Registered Testing Pool.]
Where 
Anti-Doping Organizations Process Personal Information with 
consent, 
Anti-Doping Organizations shall, in order to obtain an informed consent, ensure that adequate information is furnished to the 
Participant or 
Person to 
whom the Personal Information relates as described more fully in Article 7.
a. 
Anti-Doping Organizations shall inform 
Participants of the negative 
Consequences that could arise from their refusal to participate in 
Doping 
Controls, including 
Testing, and of the refusal to consent to the Processingof Personal Information as required for this purpose.
[6.2.a. Comment: For the avoidance of doubt, Participants shall be informed that 
their refusal to participate in Doping Controls, when requested to do so, could 
prevent their continued involvement in organized sport and, for Athletes, 
constitute a violation of the Code and invalidate Competition results, among 
other things. A Participant who believes that an Anti-Doping Organization does 
not comply with this International Standard may notify WADA pursuant to Article 
11.5, which shall, without prejudice to any other rights the Participant may have under applicable law, consider the grounds for the complaint.]
b. 
Anti-Doping Organizations shall inform 
Participants that regardless of any refusal to grant or subsequent withdrawal of consent, the Processing
of their Personal Information by 
Anti-Doping Organizations still may be required, unless otherwise prohibited by applicable law, where necessary 
to enable 
Anti-Doping Organizations:
to commence or pursue investigations involving suspected anti-doping rule violations relating to the 
Participant;
to conduct or participate in proceedings involving suspected anti-doping rule violations relating to the 
Participant; or
to establish, exercise or defend against legal claims relating to the 
Anti-Doping Organization, the 
Participant or both.
[6.2.b. Comment: In certain limited circumstances, Anti-Doping Organizations 
must have the ability to Process Personal Information in the absence of the Participant's consent. These exceptions are necessary to avoid situations where 
Participants refuse to grant consent or withdraw consent in order to circumvent 
anti-doping efforts and procedures and evade detection for a doping violation.]
Where 
Anti-Doping Organizations Process Sensitive Personal Information
with consent, the express and written consent of the 
Participant or 
Person to 
whom the Personal Information relates shall be obtained. The Processing of 
Sensitive Personal Information shall occur in accordance with any specific 
safeguards or procedures established under applicable data protection laws and regulations.
[6.3 Comment: This International Standard imposes additional restrictions where Anti-Doping Organizations Process Sensitive Personal Information, reflecting the 
greater sensitivities surrounding the Processing of such information. Although 
2015 ISPPPI – 20 February 2014
the Standard defines Sensitive Personal Information to expressly include 
different classes of information, this is not to suggest that such information should be Processed by Anti-Doping Organizations, as required by Article 5.1.]
In cases where a 
Participant
is incapable of furnishing an informed 
consent by virtue of age, mental capacity or other legitimate reason recognized 
in law, the 
Participant's legal representative, guardian or other competent 
representative may furnish consent on the 
Participant's behalf for purposes of 
this 
International Standard, as well as exercise the 
Participant's rights arising 
under Article 11 below. 
Anti-Doping Organizations shall ensure that obtaining 
consents under such circumstances is permitted by applicable law.
Ensuring Appropriate Information is Furnished to Participants and 
An 
Anti-Doping Organization shall inform 
Participants or 
Persons to whom 
the Personal Information relates about the Processing of their Personal 
Information. This information shall include:
the identity of the 
Anti-Doping Organization collecting the Personal 
types of Personal Information that may be Processed;
the purposes for which the Personal Information may be used and how 
long it may be retained;
other potential recipients of the Personal Information, including 
Anti-
Doping Organizations located in other countries where the 
Participant may 
compete, train or travel;
the possibility and circumstances under which Personal Information
may, where permitted by applicable law, be 
Publicly Disclosed (such as the disclosure of test results and tribunal decisions);
the 
Participant's rights with respect to the Personal Information under 
this 
International Standard and the means to exercise those rights, including the procedure for submitting complaints pursuant to Article 
any other information necessary to ensure that the Processing of the 
Personal Information remains fair, such as information about regulatory 
authorities or bodies that oversee the 
Anti-Doping Organization's 
Processing of Personal Information.
7.2. Anti-Doping Organizations shall communicate the above information to 
Participants or other 
Persons prior to or at the time that they collect Personal 
Information from 
Participants or other 
Persons, and 
Anti-Doping Organizations
shall be responsive to the questions or concerns of 
Participants relating to the Processing of their Personal Information by the 
Anti-Doping Organization. Where 
Anti-Doping Organizations receive Personal Information from Third Parties, and not directly from the 
Participant, they shall communicate the above information 
as soon as possible and without undue delay, unless it has previously been 
2015 ISPPPI – 20 February 2014
furnished to the 
Participant or other 
Person by other parties. Exceptionally, 
notice to the 
Participant or other 
Persons may be delayed or suspended where providing such notice might reasonably be considered to jeopardize an anti-
doping investigation or otherwise undermine the integrity of the anti-doping process. In such cases, the justification for the delay must be appropriately 
documented and the information provided to the 
Participant or other 
Persons as
soon as reasonably possible.
[7.2 Comment: Anti-Doping Organizations should recognize that basic principles 
of fairness require that where a Participant's Personal Information is Processed
in the context of Anti-Doping Activities, he or she should receive or have access 
to information that explains in simple terms the purpose and procedures for the 
collection and processing of their Personal Information. This International Standard aspires to ensure that Participants acquire a basic grasp of the roles 
and responsibilities performed by the different organizations involved in anti-doping in sport, as those relate to the Processing of Personal Information. Under 
no circumstances should Anti-Doping Organizations seek to mislead or misinform 
Participants in order to collect or use their Personal Information.
Each Anti-Doping Organization should ensure that its Processing of Personal 
Information is reasonably transparent to Participants, notwithstanding the fact that certain information relating to Anti-Doping Activities, notably information 
concerning scheduled Testing and investigations and proceedings relating to anti-doping rule violations, may need to be temporarily withheld from 
Participants in order to maintain the integrity of the anti-doping process. 
Similarly, notice to Participants also may need to be temporarily withheld if 
providing the information might reasonably risk jeopardizing an ongoing or 
imminent investigation into doping-related activities conducted by an Anti-
Doping Organization or law enforcement agencies. The prompt provision of 
appropriate information to Participants pursuant to this Article 7 is essential 
given the serious, adverse consequences that might arise if Participants are found to have committed an anti-doping rule violation.]
Anti-Doping Organizations shall provide the above information, together 
with the contact details of the accountable 
Person appointed pursuant to Section 
9.1, in a manner and format, whether written, oral or otherwise, that 
Participants or 
Persons to whom the Personal Information relates can easily 
comprehend, taking into account local practices, customs and the particular 
circumstances surrounding the Processing of the Personal Information.
[7.3 Comment: Anti-Doping Organizations need to determine the most effective 
means of providing information in particular cases, recognizing that furnishing 
Participants with written notice is to be preferred when practical. This also may include furnishing notices through generally available sources, such as brochures 
and Internet websites, alone or preferably in combination with more succinct notices on forms and other documentation provided directly to Participants.]
Disclosures of Personal Information
to other Anti-Doping 
Organizations and Third Parties
Anti-Doping Organizations shall not disclose Personal Information to other 
Anti-Doping Organizations except where such disclosures are necessary to allow 
2015 ISPPPI – 20 February 2014
the 
Anti-Doping Organizations receiving the Personal Information to fulfill 
obligations under the 
Code and in accordance with applicable privacy and data protection laws.
[8.1 Comment: In many instances required by the Code, it is necessary for Anti-Doping Organizations to share certain Personal Information relating to 
Participants with other Anti-Doping Organizations so that they may engage in 
Code-mandated Testing. For instance, this may occur in order to subject 
Athletes to In-Competition and Out-of-Competition Testing. In such cases, Anti-
Doping Organizations shall cooperate with one another to ensure that the 
participation by Participants in such Testing remains suitably transparent to 
Participants and complies with the rules set out in this International Standard 
and applicable laws.]
Anti-Doping Organizations shall not disclose Personal Information to other 
Anti-Doping Organizations: (i) where the recipient 
Anti-Doping Organizations
cannot establish a right, authority or need to obtain the Personal Information; 
(ii) where there is evidence that the recipient 
Anti-Doping Organizations do not 
or cannot comply with this 
International Standard; (iii) where the 
Anti-Doping Organization is prohibited from disclosing the Personal Information by applicable 
law or restrictions imposed by a competent supervisory authority; or (iv) where the disclosure would seriously compromise the status of an ongoing investigation 
into anti-doping rule violations. Where an 
Anti-Doping Organization has concerns that another 
Anti-Doping Organization is incapable of complying with this 
International Standard, it shall make its concerns known to the 
Anti-Doping 
Organization and 
WADA as soon as possible.
Apart from the disclosures referenced in Sections 8.1 and 8.2 above, 
Anti-
Doping Organizations may disclose Personal Information to Third Parties where 
such disclosures:
a. are required by law, regulation or compulsory legal process;
b. take place with the informed, express and written consent of the 
relevant 
Participant; or
c. are necessary to assist law enforcement or governmental or other 
authorities in the detection, investigation or prosecution of a criminal 
offence or breach of the 
Code, provided that the Personal Information is 
reasonably relevant to the offence in question and cannot otherwisereasonably be obtained by the authorities.
[8.3.c. Comment: The ability of an Anti-Doping Organization to cooperate and exchange Personal Information with law enforcement agencies and the manner 
by which this is to occur may depend upon applicable national laws and 
regulations. Such rules may sometimes require or encourage Anti-Doping 
Organizations to disclose Personal Information to law enforcement when they 
are aware that this information may be relevant to an investigation. Anti-Doping 
Organizations must comply with such national obligations where they exist.]
2015 ISPPPI – 20 February 2014
Maintaining the Security of Personal Information
Anti-Doping Organizations shall designate a 
Person who is accountable for 
compliance with this 
International Standard and all locally applicable privacy and 
data protection laws. They shall take reasonable measures to ensure that the name and contact information of the 
Person so designated is made readily 
available to 
Participants should they request it.
Anti-Doping Organizations shall protect Personal Information that they 
Process by applying all necessary security safeguards, including physical, 
organizational, technical, environmental and other measures, to prevent the loss, theft, or unauthorized access, destruction, use, modification or disclosure 
(including disclosures made via electronic networks) of Personal Information.
[9.2 Comment: Anti-Doping Organizations shall ensure that any access to 
Personal Information by their own personnel shall take place on a need-to-know 
basis only and where consistent with assigned roles and responsibilities. 
Personnel accessing Personal Information should be informed of the need to hold 
Personal Information in confidence.]
Anti-Doping Organizations shall apply security measures that take into 
account the sensitivity of the Personal Information being Processed. 
Anti-Doping 
Organizations shall apply a higher level of security to the Sensitive Personal Information that they Process, reflecting the correspondingly greater risk that 
the unlawful or unauthorized disclosure of such information presents to the
Participant or 
Person to whom the Personal Information relates.
Anti-Doping Organizations disclosing Personal Information to Third-Party
Agents in connection with their Anti-Doping Activities shall ensure that such Third-Party Agents are subject to appropriate controls, including contractual 
controls, in order to protect the confidentiality and privacy of the Personal Information and to ensure that the Personal Information is only Processed for 
and on behalf of the 
Anti- Doping Organization.
[9.4 Comment: Anti-Doping Organizations have an ongoing responsibility to 
protect any Personal Information under their effective control or in their 
possession, including Personal Information Processed by their Third-Party 
Agents, such as IT-service providers, laboratories and external Doping Control 
Anti-Doping Organizations are required to choose Third-Party Agents that 
provide sufficient guarantees, in accordance with applicable law and this 
Standard, in respect of the technical security measures and organizational measures governing the Processing to be carried out.
In the event of a Security Breach, the responsible 
Anti-Doping 
Organization shall inform affected 
Participants or other 
Persons of the breach, where this breach is likely to affect in a significant way the rights and interests 
of those 
persons concerned. The information must be provided as soon as reasonably possible once the 
Anti-Doping Organization becomes aware of the 
details of the Security Breach and should describe the nature of the breach, the 
possible negative 
Consequences for those 
Persons concerned and the 
2015 ISPPPI – 20 February 2014
remediation measures taken or to be taken by the 
Anti-Doping Organization. 
Additionally, the 
Anti-Doping Organization shall ensure that the 
Personappointed pursuant to Section 9.1 is also informed about the Security Breach.
[9.6 Comment: Security
Breach notification obligations are becoming 
increasingly common throughout the world. Pursuant to Article 4 of this 
Standard, Anti-Doping Organizations must comply with national obligations that 
go beyond the Standard (i.e., some national regimes may require additional 
notification to a competent authority or impose specific timeframes for 
notification). A breach does not significantly affect an individual when the 
Personal Information in question is subject to suitable technological protection 
measures (e.g., encryption) and there is no indication that the protection has been compromised. Notice shall be given by any appropriate means, whether 
written, verbally or otherwise, taking into account the particular circumstances of the Security Breach, including the prejudice that the relevant Persons may 
suffer as a result of the Security Breach.]
10.0 Retaining Personal Information Where Relevant and Ensuring Its 
10.1 As a general rule, retaining Sensitive Personal Information requires 
stronger or more compelling reasons and justifications than retaining non-
Sensitive Personal Information.
10.2 Anti-Doping Organizations shall ensure that Personal Information is only 
retained where it remains relevant to fulfilling their obligations under the 
Code
or under this Standard or where otherwise required by applicable law, regulation 
or compulsory legal process. Once Personal Information no longer serves the 
above purposes, it shall be deleted, destroyed or permanently anonymized.
10.3 In order to ensure the effective application of Article 10.1, 
Anti-Doping 
Organizations shall establish clear retention times to govern their Processing of 
Personal Information consistent with the above-described limitations. 
Anti-Doping Organizations shall develop specific plans and procedures to ensure the 
secure retention and eventual destruction of Personal Information.
10.4 Different retention times may be applied to different types of Personal
Information and shall take into account the purposes for which the Personal 
Information is Processed in the context of Anti-Doping Activities, including the granting of Therapeutic Use Exemptions, 
Testing, the investigation of doping 
violations, and the sanctioning of such violations. 
Anti-Doping Organizationsshall adhere to those retention times set forth in Annex A (Retention Times), as 
amended from time to time.
11.0 Rights of Participants and Other Persons with Respect to Personal 
11.1 Participants or 
Persons to whom the Personal Information relates shall 
have the right to obtain from 
Anti-Doping Organizations: (a) confirmation of 
whether or not 
Anti-Doping Organizations Process Personal Information relating 
to them, (b) the information as per Article 7.1, and (c) a copy of the relevant Personal Information within a reasonable timeframe, in a readily intelligible 
2015 ISPPPI – 20 February 2014
format, and without excessive cost, unless to do so in a particular case plainly 
conflicts with the 
Anti-Doping Organization'
s ability to plan or conduct 
No Advance Notice Testing or to investigate and establish anti-doping rule 
[11.1 Comment: Save in exceptional circumstances, (which may 
situations where the amount of Personal Information at issue is significant and 
involves a disproportionate effort to assemble), an Anti-Doping Organization 
ordinarily is expected to respond no later than 6 to 8 weeks from the date the 
request is received.]
11.2 Anti-Doping Organizations have to respond to requests from 
Participants
or 
Persons to whom the Personal Information relates seeking access to their 
Personal Information, except if doing so imposes a disproportionate burden on 
the 
Anti-Doping Organizations in terms of cost or effort given the nature of the 
Personal Information in question.
11.3 In the event an 
Anti-Doping Organization refuses to allow a 
Participant
access to his or her Personal Information, it shall inform the 
Participant and set 
out in writing the reasons for refusing the request as soon as practicable. 
Anti-Doping Organizations shall ensure that 
Participants only obtain Personal 
Information relating to themselves, and not relating to other 
Participants or third 
Persons, where they seek to obtain access to Personal Information pursuant to 
this Article 11.
11.4 Where an 
Anti-Doping Organization'
s Processing of Personal Information is 
shown to be inaccurate, incomplete, or excessive, it shall, as appropriate, 
rectify, amend or delete the relevant Personal Information as soon as possible. If 
the 
Anti-Doping Organization has disclosed the Personal Information in question 
to another 
Anti-Doping Organization that to its knowledge or belief continues to 
Process the Personal Information, it shall inform that 
Anti-Doping Organization of 
the change as soon as possible, unless this proves impossible or involves a 
11.5 Without prejudice to any other rights a 
Participant may have under 
applicable laws, a 
Participant shall be entitled to initiate a complaint with an 
Anti-Doping Organization where he or she has a reasonable, good-faith belief 
that an 
Anti-Doping Organization is not complying with this 
International 
Standard and each 
Anti-Doping Organization shall have a procedure in place for dealing with such complaints in a fair and impartial manner. In the event that 
the complaint cannot be satisfactorily resolved, the 
Participant may notify 
WADAand/or submit a complaint to 
CAS, which will determine whether a violation 
occurred. Where the 
International Standard is not being adhered to, the relevant 
Anti-Doping Organization will be required to rectify the breach.
