This study is currently considered double-blinded. Double-blinded means that your personal information will not be known to the Sponsor. As well, the Sponsor’s identity will not be revealed to you during the course of the study. There is no requirement for reporting payments in this case.
In the event the study becomes unblinded, by any means (i.e. you reveal your personal information or the Sponsor recognizes you), we will notify you prior to reporting information to the Sponsor. Should this happen, the Sponsor is required, under Federal Law (the Sunshine Act), to collect personally identifying information for the purpose of tracking and reporting payments. This means that after payment of honoraria, your name, address, service provided (i.e.: market research participant) and the amount of payment made to you in connection with this market research study will be reported by the Sponsor to the government as required under this act or any other state or federal laws.
