2. Permission to use anonymised written case material for professional education
Pet Behaviour Company sometimes uses anonymised written case material to support professional education, supervision, mentoring and case discussion. This helps veterinary professionals, clinical animal behaviourists, trainers, students and those working towards professional recognition to understand how behaviour assessments are made, how treatment plans are developed, and how clinical reasoning is applied in practice.
Use of anonymised written case history:
Are you happy to give permission for Pet Behaviour Company to use information from your pet’s case to create an anonymised written case history for professional education.
This may include relevant details about your pet’s behaviour, history, environment, veterinary background, assessment, treatment plan and progress.
You understand that Pet Behaviour Company will remove or change obvious identifying details, such as your name, contact details, address, precise location, veterinary practice name and other details that are not needed for educational discussion.
You understand that the anonymised written case history may be used in paid professional education, including online case discussion sessions, webinars, courses, mentoring or training resources.
You understand that these sessions may be attended by veterinary professionals, behaviour professionals, trainers, students and people working towards professional recognition in the animal training and behaviour field.
You understand that Pet Behaviour Company will take reasonable steps to reduce the risk of identification, but that very unusual case details may still carry some risk of recognition.
You understand that you can withdraw permission for future use by contacting admin@petbc.co.uk. Withdrawal will not affect any use that has already taken place before the request is received, but Pet Behaviour Company will stop using the material in future where reasonably possible.
