Web3UX panel is a community-owned marketplace for user research in Web3. In this document we lay out our terms and conditions to participate in this marketplace.
1.1 Intended use
Web3UX panel is solely intended for researchers to connect with end-users in order to conduct user research.
1.2 Eligibility
Anyone can be an end-user of a Web3 product, protocol or service and thus become a Member. That said, membership is not allowed for those below the minimum age to enter a legally binding agreement or for those otherwise unable to agree to these Terms and Conditions.
1.3 Guarantees
Web3UX panel is a collective initiative and provides no guarantees of Research offered or Members available. It merely provides a way for Researchers to find Members (i.e. end-users) and for Members to be invited by Researchers.
1.4 Incentives and other compensations
Web3UX panel does not facilitate payment of incentives or any other form of compensation. Any agreements made between Researchers and Members regarding incentives are deemed an agreement between these individual parties.
1.5 Intellectual property and disclosure
Researchers may ask Members to sign a non-disclosure agreement when inviting Members to participate in their study. Such agreements are deemed to exist solely between individual parties. Web3UX panel does not encourage or take part in upholding such agreements.
1.6 Acceptable and objectionable behaviour
Both Members and Researchers are expected to be kind and courteous in their communications. Derogatory and discriminatory language or behaviour is not tolerated. Moreover all parties are expected to respect each others time. Meaning that they are expected to be on time and provide fair notice in case of changes in availability.
1.7 Disputes and conflict resolution
Web3UX does not play a role in conflict resolution when disputes emerge, for example regarding incentive payments. Web3UX panel does facilitate Members to leave reviews and notify other Researchers in the collective of disputes or objectionable behaviour. In cases, where notified researchers find that the Code of Conduct was not upheld, they may, at their discretion, initiate cancelling the subscription of the disputed Researcher. Similarly, Researcher are provided with the opportunity to notify other Researchers in the collective of a dispute with, or objectionable behaviour by, a Member. In such cases, the collective of Researchers may decide to remove access of a Panel Member.
