Conditions for Online Use

You agree to:

• Administer this Mind Garden instrument for research purposes only. This research license is for data collection only and not for providing individual feedback to survey participants.

• Control access to the instrument. The instrument may not be made available via the open web, nor sent in the message body or as an attachment to survey participants.

• Avoid using copyrighted items from this instrument on the survey landing page. You should put other items on this landing page, e.g., demographics or informed consent.

• Put the instrument copyright statement on every page containing questions/items from this instrument. The copyright statement is provided in the enclosed permission letter.

• Track your license use. Each time a participant opens the survey and has access to the copyrighted items is considered one administration.

• Compensate Mind Garden, Inc. for each administration.

• Purchase a license for any additional administrations over the initial purchase quantity, or close the survey.

• Remove this online survey at the conclusion of your data collection and you will personally confirm that it cannot be accessed.

Caution: If you do not require a unique login for each respondent, the survey method you use may elicit a large number of responses to your survey. You are responsible for compensating Mind Garden for every administration, regardless of circumstances.

Distributing an entire instrument in either the text of an email or as an email attachment is strictly prohibited.
