Questions in the “About You” section are used by researchers to target projects toward participants. Answering questions in the “About You” section allows you to qualify for more projects. You don’t have to answer any question you’re uncomfortable with, but answering more items will generally mean more projects. We have the option for participants to select that they prefer not to answer or that the question does not apply to them. 

Life happens and details about you may change. Maybe you switch jobs, take up a new hobby, get a raise at work, or start dating someone new. When these or other changes happen, you may want to update information in the “About You” section.

As of right now, you will need to email us at connect-support@cloudresearch.com to make any changes. Our support team can unlock qualifications and give you the chance to update your information. In 2024, we will launch a system update which will periodically ask you to confirm that your core demographic information has not changed. If something has changed, you can update the information on your account.
