Privacy Policy

Last updated 21 September 2026

We collect what we need to match you to studies, confirm you are one real person, and pay you. We do not sell your data, we run no advertising or analytics trackers, and researchers see your answers without your name attached.

1. What we hold

Account details: name, email, and a hashed password. Your participant profile: demographics used for matching. Identity verification images and metadata, with ID numbers stored only as a one-way hash. Technical connection information used to detect duplicate accounts. Study activity and payout records. We never hold bank or card details.

2. Why we hold it

To run your account, match studies, prevent fraud, deliver research, and pay you. Identity verification is based on your consent. You can withdraw that consent; doing so means we can no longer verify you, which is a condition of withdrawing earnings.

3. What researchers see

Researchers receive your answers and the demographic characteristics a study screened on. They do not receive your name, email, identity documents, or payout address.

4. Cookies

We use cookies only to keep you signed in. There is no advertising network and no analytics tracker on this site.

5. Your rights

Ask us to show, correct, or delete what we hold. Email support@opinly.example. Some payment records may be kept where the law requires it.

6. Children

Opinly is for adults. You must be at least 18.
