 Another important aspect of human relation is to deal with privacy and confidentiality. Now, maintaining the confidentiality is something very important. Psychologists always have a primary obligation and they take reasonable precautions to protect the confidential information stored in any medium, recognizing that the extent and limit to confidentiality may be regulated by either law or established by institution. There could be different scenes in which we can assess this that confidentiality is something very, very important to be kept. But another aspect of maintaining that confidentiality is that when we are going to break that, but we are going to concentrate on the first half right now that why confidentiality is so much important to be taken. Students of psychology conduct different kind of experiments and when they go to experiment, they are always being asked that you have to take informed consent, you have to tell them that you are taking this information for purpose and you have to keep it confidential. Generally, students are not much into practice for these things and when they ask a question or a question, the first thing they ask is the name or the name. They ask their client's name and the client mentions their name there, whatever their name is. After that, they ask their age, after that, they ask their workplace name, they ask their province, they ask their city. So in another way, they ask their demographic information and when their name is there, they ask their phone number, they ask their address, then confidentiality does not automatically remain there. It is very much advisable that if you are doing a lot of research in which you have to do a test-re-test, you have to assess the validity of something over a period of time, you have to assess a specific individual twice between intervention and therapeutic training and counseling program, it is very important that you have the identity of that specific client so that you can approach it again. But as soon as possible, your task is completed, you are going to code those numbers, those names and you assign a code to that participant in your data sheet, in your questionnaire. You maintain its confidentiality, you don't mention its name on any of the sites. Similarly, in hospital settings, when there are case presentations, in case presentations, we tell someone's name in this way we tell someone's case in such a way that it is given a fake name so that no one can know which ward it is admitted to. So you know confidentiality is this much important because if we give an example, we mentor our junior students or junior psychologists, we reveal someone's identity fully, so that would be highly ethical in terms of confidentiality. Similarly, as I gave you an example of the question, similarly, students are collecting data in malls and they are directly asking their job satisfaction directly from the workers and they are asking from the sales girls what is their job satisfaction but their permission was not taken from the institution or the organization's head and they are saying that the job satisfaction of the individuals in this mall is not good and the head of the institution did not take permission and broke a confidential data. There are some research journals in which no one has mentioned that they are recognized or they are open access, some low income countries publish their journals in which some students make payments and publish their papers. Although they are not authentic but in those research journals I have frequently seen that there is mention of a university name, a medical center name, a hospital name and there are some statistics that in the employees there is so much depression so much workplace deviance so much low self-esteem which is highly unethical to label an institution the private data of the employees to breach the confidentiality now discussing the limitation of confidentiality since we have been talking about that confidentiality is very much important and we should never break the rules of confidentiality but now we are looking into it that what could be the possible limitations and in what situations we are going to breach that confidentiality. Psychologists discuss with person who they establish as scientific and professional relationships so you know you need to discuss certain cases with other people and with other persons who are involved in that specific scenario so relevant limits of confidentiality should be sustained. I mean like if we are going to see that in certain cases we need to inform the parents about something which is being happening to the child and it's going to be into the care of that child that's very much important to see that this is the limit of confidentiality then foreseeable uses of information generated through their psychological activities for instance if we have identified certain problems and we can see that in the future what side effects or consequences could be if this information is not hidden so in that situation we are relevant stakeholders with only that much information and with that much information we don't need to explain it but it's important to tell the limit of confidentiality as much as possible. Then unless it is not foreseeable or contra-inticated the discussion of confidentiality occurs at the start of the relationship it is very important that at the beginning if you find that you can tell something that we may limit the confidentiality then this should be told in the beginning but if it's not in the beginning somewhere in between the process somewhere in between the therapy where you feel that it is necessary to tell this you can also inform it there so it's very much important that if you are seeing the limit of confidentiality then inform it and limit it psychologists who offer services, products or information via electronic transmission they inform clients of risk of privacy and limits of confidentiality. For example if you are having a conversation through data collection then there are high chances that it will be recorded and that record could be used as a verbatim in any court in any case evidence and it can be used against anyone so someone has done his catharsis and it is being recorded and it can be used in an unforeseen situation so these limits the confidentiality should be in advance being told to the individual talking about the recording before recording the voices and images of individuals on whom they provide services psychologists to obtain permission from all such persons or from their legal representatives let's say we talk about a patient with HIV who has lived experience to record a therapist who is asking how did you expose to that jump what changes in your life and how have you been through that there is some kind of private and confidential information which can be recorded in the case of recording because he is recording then he has to transcribe, recode he has to work qualitatively so if he can be used against in any situation he should at least know that no audio or video record can be recorded unless in some circumstances which we will talk about minimizing intrusions on privacy only information relevant to the reason for which communication is made is included in written and oral reports as much as needed that client's information and his behaviour will only be written in pertinent aspects of the whole life's story his every problem his every thing's confidentiality your focus if a symptom, a disease a disorder is related you will only write the same background confidential information obtained in the work is discussed only for appropriate scientific and professional purposes and strictly with concerned person only the information we obtain we use it only for scientific method we use it only for assessment of that particular problem we use it only for therapy rehabilitation we do not penalize or stigmatize it we label it and only with concerned people we share that information so these are the minimum intrusions on privacy which need to be considered while dealing in human relationships
