Data Use Addendum — Anonymous A/B Metrics

This page explains what we collect, what we do not collect, how long we keep it, and your choices. Service works without research.

What we collect (if you opt in)

  • A/B switches/settings for the first second (e.g., earcon Y/N, warm vs cool, caption nudge Y/N).
  • Performance deltas (B − A) for 1‑second hold % (primary), 3‑second hold %, average watch (s), replays, saves.
  • RiderLab only: anonymous choice/rating plus technical IDs: pair_id, left/right variant IDs, shown order, timestamp.

What we do not collect

  • No raw video files or thumbnails in the research set.
  • No names, emails, phone numbers, social handles, or platform credentials.
  • No account IDs or viewer‑level data. We do not use IP addresses in the analyzed dataset. (A hosting provider may keep routine logs; we do not access them.)

How we store & how long

  • Storage: Google Drive/Sheets and Airtable/Notion with access controls; encrypted in transit/at rest per vendor standards.
  • Access: limited to the PI and one assistant.
  • Retention: up to 12–18 months, then deletion.

How we use results

  • Aggregate statistics and small “Pattern Notes.”
  • No sale of raw rows; no public post that can identify a creator or rider without separate written consent.

Your choices & rights

  • You may book paid services without sharing data.
  • You may opt in or out of research; opting in is voluntary.
  • You may request deletion of your anonymized study rows at any time. Email the PI with your session details.
