Disclaimer

All data that is recorded using iMotions is stored locally on the experimental computer and iMotions A/S has no access to the data. Therefore, it lies within the responsibility of the client to protect the data as well as personal information of their participants, and to store them in accordance with the European General Data Protection Regulation.

What you need to do:

  • Collect written consent of every participant of your studies, even if they have already participated in a prior study at your institution. In the consent form, your participants need to be explicitly informed about what personal data is being processed by whom for what purpose as well as that they have the right to withdraw their consent at any time.
  • Anonymize your participants in the dataset by using a pseudonym instead of their real name.
  • Store data that can make the participant identifiable separate from the dataset. Please find an article on how to exclude face recordings from your dataset here.
  • Delete all personal data once you are done with processing it.
  • If a participant requests you to delete his or her data, you must remove all personal data from that participant from your dataset as soon as possible. This concerns even back-up-files and data in the recycle bin.
