Before you get started -- some stuff you should know:
After you fill out the survey, we will review your responses. If you appear to be a possible match to our client's research criteria we will call you
to verify your responses and ask you some additional questions to determine if you fully qualify. Please note that simply filling out the survey does not automatically qualify you for the study. Also, due to a potentially high volume of responses, we may only be able to respond to those who appear to be a possible match.
The world has Swiss Banks. We have our Online Community. Both are highly confidential and secure -- only with us, you don't have to worry about retina scans and fingerprints. Any information you share with
watchLAB
will never be given to any clients or third parties without your explicit permission as part of a paid market research study.
