Determine if the following text contains a data availability statement. Answer with 'yes' or 'no'.

Text: The data collected for this study was from a small group of vulnerable participants, and includes indirect identifiers (such as sex, ethnicity, location, presence of a rare medical condition) that may risk the identification of study participants. The UK and Sierra Leone ethics committee approval processes did not include information on data sharing and the informed consent process did not include that data sharing would take place. The information approved by the ethics committee confirmed that consent would be sought to use direct quotes using codes or pseudonyms to avoid identification of respondents. Furthermore, it documented that data files will be protected through the use of a secure password known only to the researcher. Hard copies of field notes and interview transcripts will be protected through secure storage in a locked folder. A non-author point of contact that is able to receive queries regarding data access is ethics@lshtm.ac.uk.<|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|>
