Privacy Policy

As user researchers in the Web3 ecosystem, we've seen first hand how usability affects privacy and security measures. This is why we believe in the importance of frequent testing, facilitated by the Web3UX panel and in keeping your data safe while doing so.

Note: This document describes our policy when it comes to protecting your privacy as a Web3 UX Panel Member and Researcher using the panel.
1. Who we are

We are individual user researchers in the Web3 ecosystem. To address a common challenge when finding people to participate in studies, we formed a collective to recruit and maintain the Web3 UX panel. Please see our About page to find out more about us. You can contact us at hi@web3ux.org.

2. Our role in your privacy

We ask you to share data, and determine with what purpose and how these data are processed. That makes us a data controller.

3. Data we collect from you

We ask you to share data with us so that we can match you to (design) research studies. These can be surveys, usability tests, interviews, etc. To match you, we need to understand what type of person you are, we don't need to know who you are.

  • Our policy is to limit any identifying data to your contact details (i.e. an emailaddress).
  • We will never ask for any personal data beyond your emailaddress. We will never ask for your account address, phone number, keys, or seed phrase.
  • You are asked to provide a name. You can and are encouraged to use a nickname
