Not yet claimed

OpenIRB does not currently claim:

  • To be a legally registered Institutional Review Board.
  • To replace required IRB review, FDA review, OHRP compliance, legal advice, medical judgment, or institutional policy.
  • To certify AI safety, legality, ethics, clinical effectiveness, or regulatory compliance.
  • To operate a production public registry of regulated or sensitive review records.
  • To have completed independent security, SOC 2, ISO, or regulatory audits unless a linked artifact says otherwise.

Do not submit sensitive data. OpenIRB public forms and early access inquiries should not be used to submit protected health information, confidential participant data, regulated study materials, trade secrets, credentials, API keys, or model secrets. The site is static-first, privacy-preserving, and protected with modern security headers and a nonce-based Content-Security-Policy.
