How we use Data
We never provide any identifying
information to clients at any time. Participant information is used in
aggregate, often in conjunction with other locations, to help clients make
decisions about products and services offered to their consumers. All
information is recorded on both audio and video formats. That is primarily used
for transcription and for researcher’s note taking.
