9.2 Anti-Doping Organizations shall communicate in writing the following information to Athletes as well as any other relevant information in accordance with Article 7.1 of the International Standard for the Protection of Privacy and Personal Information in connection with an Athlete’s application for the grant or recognition of a TUE:

a) All information pertaining to the application will be transmitted to members of all TUECs with authority under this International Standard to review the file and, as required, other independent medical or scientific experts, and to all necessary staff (including WADA staff) involved in the management, review or appeal of TUE applications;

b) The Athlete must authorize their physician(s) to release to any relevant TUEC upon request any health information that any such TUEC deems necessary in order to consider and determine the Athlete’s application; and

c) The decision on the application will be made available to all Anti-Doping Organizations with Testing authority and/or Results Management authority over the Athlete.

9.3 The TUE application shall be dealt with in accordance with the principles of strict medical confidentiality. The members of all relevant TUECs, any consulted independent experts and the relevant staff of the Anti-Doping Organization shall conduct all of their activities relating to the process in strict confidence and shall sign appropriate confidentiality agreements.
