Research Participation & Data Licensing Consent

This Research Participation and Data Licensing Consent ("Consent") explains how participation in research activities on the Flick platform works and how responses may be used to generate aggregated insights.

By submitting responses through the Flick platform, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Consent and agree to the practices described below.

1. Purpose of the Platform

Flick is a digital insights platform that allows individuals to voluntarily respond to short prompts, questions, and other engagement formats.

The purpose of the platform is to generate insights regarding:

• consumer behaviour
• cultural trends
• lifestyle habits
• social attitudes
• digital behaviours

These insights help organizations better understand societal and market trends.

2. Voluntary Participation

Participation in Flick research activities is entirely voluntary.

Users may choose whether or not to answer prompts presented within the platform.

You may stop participating at any time by discontinuing use of the platform or deleting your account via our deletion request page.

3. Types of Data Collected

When participating in Flick research activities, the following types of information may be collected:

• responses to prompts or questions
• behavioural engagement with the platform
• optional demographic information
• timestamps associated with responses

This information helps generate aggregated research insights.

4. Aggregation of Responses

Responses submitted through the platform are processed into aggregated datasets.

Aggregation means that responses are combined with responses from many other users in order to produce group-level insights.

These datasets are designed to reflect trends across populations rather than individual users.

5. Anonymization

Flick is designed to protect user privacy.

Before responses are used in research outputs:

• personally identifiable information is removed where possible
• responses are aggregated with other responses
• insights represent patterns rather than individual opinions

Research outputs do not identify individual users.

6. Creation of Insights

Responses collected through the platform may be analyzed to generate insights about:

• consumer preferences
• social behaviour
• cultural patterns
• lifestyle habits
• digital engagement trends

These insights may be included in research reports, analytics dashboards, or datasets.

7. Data Licensing and Commercial Use

Aggregated insights generated from responses may be:

• licensed
• sold
• shared
• distributed

to organizations including:

• brands
• research agencies
• consulting firms
• academic institutions
• media organizations

These insights are derived from aggregated datasets and do not identify individual users.

8. Research and Analytics Development

Aggregated datasets may also be used internally by Flick or Pebbl to:

• improve research methodologies
• develop analytics models
• enhance insights generation tools
• create new research products

These activities help improve the overall quality of insights generated by the platform.

9. Incentives for Participation

The platform may offer engagement incentives such as:

• points
• rewards
• progress indicators

These incentives are intended to encourage participation but are not guaranteed.

Eligibility for rewards may depend on participation rules and platform policies.

10. Withdrawal from Participation

Users may withdraw from research participation by:

• stopping the use of the platform
• deleting their account

Previously aggregated responses may remain part of anonymized research datasets.

11. Risks and Limitations

Participation in Flick research activities carries minimal risk.

However, users should be aware that:

• responses contribute to aggregated datasets
• aggregated insights may be shared with organizations
• insights reflect group trends rather than individual identities

Flick takes reasonable measures to protect user privacy.
