Registering with Paid Perspectives / Creating an Account & Creation of a Contract 

  1. To become a Member and to participate in the Surveys, you must create an Account. You can do this by completing the online registration form found at www.paidperspectives.com on the Website. Accounts are non-transferable and only one Account may be held per person. The Paid Perspectives registration form requires you to enter personal details, including without limitation your name, email address and telephone number. By entering your personal details and completing the Surveys, you warrant that the information you provide to us is true, accurate, current and complete at the time of registration. All personal data is held securely and in accordance with law and per our Privacy Policy. You agree that you will update your information if any changes occur, and confirm that you accept our Privacy Policy which can be found at www.paidperspectives.com/privacy-policy. 
  2. The offer of Paid Perspectives to provide the Surveys and your completion of the Surveys does not create a contract of employment between Paid Perspectives and You. There is no obligation upon you to participate in any Surveys and there is no obligation upon us to provide Surveys and/or Credits, Prizes or Incentives. 
  3. You warrant that you are aged 18 (or the age of majority in your U.S. state of residence, if higher) or over. Note, Subscribers under the age of 18 may not be eligible for, or restricted from participation into some Surveys. Paid Perspectives may, at the point of registration or any time thereafter, require proof of identity of a Member for verification. Failure to provide the required proof of identity shall result in the Account being immediately terminated by Paid Perspectives. 
  4. The email address you provide must be personal to you and must not be shared with a third party or corporate. You shall not register to the Website more than once to create an Account. 
  5. You agree that you shall only use the Website in accordance with these General terms and conditions and all Applicable Laws. Providing false profile information may result in forfeiture of incentives 
  6. If you submit any comments on any Survey or the Website or our services we are entitled but not obliged to publish those comments. 
  7. You further acknowledge that by registering as a U.S-based Member, your data may be transferred outside the United States (including to the United Kingdom and the European Union) for processing. Such transfers will occur only in accordance with Applicable Law and with appropriate safeguards in place.  
  8. You will at all times and on demand fully indemnify us and keep us fully indemnified from and against any claims (threatened or made against us) or loss arising as a direct or indirect result of your non-compliance with these General terms and conditions. 

Security 

  1. Upon registering with Paid Perspectives, you will select a password which must be used in order to access your Account. You shall be responsible for the use of your Account and for any activity which takes place on the Account. You should therefore ensure that your Account log-in details (including your user name and password) are kept confidential at all times. Do not disclose these details to any third party (knowingly or unknowingly) nor permit any third party to access your Account without the express permission of Paid Perspectives. You agree that you shall immediately inform Paid Perspectives of any actual or suspected unauthorised use of your Account or any other breach of security of which you become aware. In the event of a security incident affecting your data and where required by Applicable Law, Paid Perspectives will provide you with timely notification consistent with U.S. state data-breach notification requirements. 
  2. You are responsible for any information provided to Paid Perspectives by anyone using your Account log-in details. In the event that any third party accesses your Account, Paid Perspectives shall be entitled to retain or reclaim any Credit or Prize earned as a result of such access by the unauthorised user.

  4. You agree to maintain updated anti-virus software while using our Website. 
  5. We may may suspend you account during any investigations. 

Credits and Incentives 

  1. When you complete a Survey in full, you may be entitled to claim such Incentive (if any) as is stated on the Website in connection with the relevant Survey. Incentives may be in the form of a Credit, the opportunity to win a Prize via a prize draw, or both (as Paid Perspectives shall determine acting in its sole discretion). For the avoidance of doubt, there is no obligation on Paid Perspectives to provide any Incentive in relation to any Survey. 
  2. Any Credit earned by you will be recorded on your Account. No Credit may be redeemed until the total level of Credit accrued on your Account reaches the Fulfilment Level. 
  3. Within a reasonable time (typically 14 days) of reaching the Fulfilment Level and an Incentive being redeemed, Paid Perspectives or its appointed party will issue payment. Payments to U.S. Members may be made in U.S. Dollars and through U.S.-supported payment methods only. 
  4. If your total Incentives exceed thresholds established by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS), you may be required to provide tax information (including a Form W-9), and Paid Perspectives or its Incentive Provider may issue a Form 1099-MISC. Failure to provide required tax documentation may result in withholding or non-payment of Incentives. 
  5. Paid Perspectives will not be liable for the inability of any Member to redeem that results from inaccuracies in personal data provided by that Member upon registering and/or by subsequent updates. 
  6. You shall not be eligible to receive a Credit or other Incentive until you have fulfilled the full participation requirements of the relevant Survey, as notified to you via the Website upon entering the relevant Survey. Where non-monetary Incentives are offered, no cash alternative is available. 
  7. Once processed, you will be sent a link to a third-party Incentive Provider platform (by the Incentive Provider, not by Paid Perspectives) to access your Incentive. The Incentive provider will be provided with your email address and full name solely to provide you with the Incentive and to contact you in relation to any Incentive related payment issues, and their provider’s privacy policy will be available and easily accessible to you via their platform. We are not responsible for outages, errors, or delays caused by the Incentive Provider. All redemptions are final once issued to the Incentive Provider. 
  8. You will be responsible for paying any federal, state, and local taxes that you are due to pay to your local tax regulator arising out of any rewards or incentives you are paid for answering surveys. 
  9. Any Credits or other Incentives will expire within 6 months of Inactivity. 

Prize Draws 

  1. Paid Perspectives may enter you into a prize draw as part or full incentive for your participation in a Survey. Terms and conditions applicable to Incentives and prize draws are set out below. Any prize draw entered into will be subject to “Survey specific” terms and conditions (stating, for example, closing date for entry), in addition to these Terms and Conditions, which shall be displayed on the Website at the point of participation. 
  2. Void where prohibited. All Prize Draws offered to U.S. Members will comply with applicable U.S. state sweepstakes laws. No purchase or payment is necessary to enter or win. Odds of winning depend on the number of eligible entries received. Unless  otherwise specified in the Survey specific terms, Walr Group Ltd shall be the sponsor of any prize draws. Eligibility may vary by State.
