NDA & Consent Forms
Here are three ways to approach consent in Ethnio, starting with the most common.
Approach 1) Disclaimer
Consent is typically managed via a screener sign up link, with some language directing participants to the company’s legal terms and conditions or privacy statement. E.g. “By taking part in this survey, you agree to the Acme.com Privacy Statement.”
This can also be part of a screener qualifying question, forcing participants to agree to the terms separately (with checkboxes or radio buttons etc). That way, only consenting participants will qualify as a valid response to be scheduled in Ethnio. For example:
Approach 2) Details Email in Scheduling
If you're using our Scheduling feature, you can include a link to any NDA or consent agreements in the "details" email:
This will only go to participants who you've selected to participate, and have confirmed. Most of our customers use DocuSign or something similar to generate a URL that the participants have to digitally sign/complete before the research session starts.
Approach 3) Double Opt In with Pool
With access to Pool (Enterprise-Only), you can setup an Automation to send an email immediately to each respondent that fills out a screener with a "yes" to your initial opt-in question. It can then include both a "double opt in" button to confirm they received the email as well as a link to any NDA or other online consent link (DocuSign, etc).
