Application information

How your information is handled.

Adversarial Studies LLC uses information submitted for Research on Experienced Workers’ Experiences with Virtual Jobs to assess eligibility, communicate about applications and manage application progress. The application records screening answers, including date of birth and any other requested screening information, and, if you continue, your name, email address, signed acknowledgement and application or verification status.

The research team and services operating the website and application system process this information for the application process. An application is identifiable rather than anonymous. If you are asked to use a separate verification service, read that service’s information before providing information to it. This application notice does not describe every possible later use of research data; any separate study activities need their own relevant information.

Ask the research team about access, correction, withdrawal requests, storage periods and any additional uses or recipients of your information. Do not send information about other people or additional sensitive information unless the study specifically requests it.
