ABP Updates Privacy Policy

The American Board of Pediatrics (ABP) has updated its privacy policy to provide information about changes to our processes.  These include: 

• MOCA-Peds, our 2017-2018 pilot of an alternative MOC Part 3 assessment, collects de-identified log errors encountered by diplomates using the MOCA-Peds mobile app.
• The ABP also is using a third-party vendor to host any surveys it conducts.

Additionally, the updated policy permits the sharing of individual-level, de-identified data, including test scores, for approved research projects. This change was included in the privacy policy even though data sharing will not begin before 2018, at the earliest.
