  • We need your name and email address to correspond with you and send you an invite to the test. 

  • We may ask some general demographic questions before or during the test, for instance your occupation and your areas of study. This helps inform us how representative you are of our target users.  

  • We may require the recording of your screen and voice to help us note take and understand how you use our products. If you’d rather we don’t record the session, just let us know when we ask. 

  • We may use AI to summarise key points from recordings (if recorded) and generate insights on the usage of our products. 


Your Personal Data will be retained for 6 months after which it will be deleted/anonymised/pseudonymised into transcripts or otherwise held in accordance with our Privacy Policy. We will not use your name or Personal Data other than for the above purposes without your additional consent.
