Participant information
This page explains the rules that apply before anyone joins or is recorded in a Bracket Bridge data acquisition study.
Last updated: July 22, 2026
Booking a slot is not consent to participate and is not consent to recording. Before collection starts, every participant must receive the project-specific information, have a chance to ask questions, and sign the current informed consent form. No recording may begin until this is complete.
You choose whether to book, attend, and participate. No moderator, referrer, friend, client, or Bracket Bridge representative may force, threaten, shame, or mislead you into joining. You may ask questions or decline before recording starts.
The project-specific form must identify the responsible controller and study operator; explain the AI-training or research purpose; describe the recordings and other data collected; name recipients or recipient categories; explain international transfers, retention, security, rights, withdrawal, and contact routes; and state the exact honorarium and completion rules. The form must be provided in a language the participant understands.
For a paired conversation, both participants must separately receive the information and sign before recording. A friend, referrer, or one participant cannot consent for the other. The moderator must verify the signed forms before pressing START.
A participant may refuse consent or ask to pause or stop. The project form must explain what withdrawal means for data already collected, data already delivered to a client, and data that has been irreversibly anonymized. It must also explain whether an incomplete session receives partial or no honorarium. Payment is never offered in exchange for waiving privacy rights or accepting unrelated optional uses.
The current public offer is CHF 65 per eligible participant for a valid, completed VOCI session that follows the study instructions and passes the stated quality and fraud checks. It is a study honorarium, not a wage or guaranteed income. No-show, ineligible, duplicate, fraudulent, or incomplete participation may not qualify, as explained before the session.
The current public referral offer is CHF 15 for the registered referrer after an eligible referred participant uses the valid link or code, completes the qualifying study, and passes duplicate, quality, fraud, and administrative checks. Sharing a link or creating a booking request alone does not earn the reward. No spam, bought leads, self-referrals, pressure, or misleading claims are allowed.
“Participate, get CHF 65” means CHF 65 after eligible, valid completion under the published study rules. Participation remains voluntary and signed consent is required before recording.
“Bring a friend, get CHF 15” means CHF 15 for the registered referrer only after the referred person is eligible, completes the study, and passes the stated checks.
Ask the moderator before signing if anything is unclear. For privacy, withdrawal, access, correction, or deletion questions, contact support@bracketbridge.com and include the project name and booking code. Where a client controls the study data, Bracket Bridge may coordinate the request with that client.
