The updated templates detail the personal information processed for anti-doping purposes, state the legal bases for such processing and specify the rights of participants in respect of their personal information.

These templates include:

  • Doping Control Form (and instructions)
  • Therapeutic Use Exemption (TUE) Application Form
  • Athlete Information Notice
  • Athlete Consent Form
