Adding an NDA to your project

Can I make participants sign and NDA, Terms of Use, or Terms of Service?

Written by Jeremy Katzman

At the time of creating a project, you can upload an NDA - which can contain any details you wish about the study.

At the point at which participants opt-in to participate in the study via the screener, they are required to read and agree to the terms and conditions held in the NDA you've uploaded before they are allowed to submit their responses. If a participant doesn't agree to the terms (i.e. they select "No") they will appear as "Not Qualified" for your project.

When research participants get to the end of the survey if an NDA is present this is what they see:

How to add an NDA or Terms of Use option to your project.

NDAs can be added as files or links on the screener section of your project.

  1. Complete the project setup through to the Screener Questions.

  2. Add the Screener questions you want

  3. At the bottom of the Screener, there is an NDA field option -- Select either "File" or "Link"

  4. Upload the file or add the link to add the NDA to your project.

Signed NDAs

The platform does not facilitate the return of the signed NDA to the researcher. If you require a signed NDA, you can distribute this directly to Respondents via the 'Messages' tab of your project to request a signed copy.

How to reach Respondent Support:
​
1. Start a chat with our Support Team directly from the chat support "bubble" in the bottom right hand corner of your screen (when logged into the Respondent platform). From there, our AI auto-help agent will immediately begin assisting you!
​
2. Our Support queues are monitored by real humans Monday through Friday, from 11:30 AM Eastern US until 7:30 PM Eastern US, excluding US federal holidays. Please allow more time for our assistance on Monday's and following US federal holidays, as we will be working to get caught up across all pending requests. There is no need to duplicate your outreach or send multiple follow ups, we will be with you as soon as we can!
​
3. In the event our AI auto-help agent is unable to resolve your issue, or answer your question, simply ask to speak to a human or select the "Talk to a Human" option at anytime and your thread will be escalated for a team member to review.
​
4. In the event the chat service is down or otherwise unresponsive, please email support@respondent.io as a backup option to reach our team. In order to keep queues organized and our follow up as efficient as possible, please only reach out via one method (either in-app Support Chat or email). Thank you!
​

We look forward to helping you! Thanks for being the best part of Respondent!
