The purpose of this study is to understand human behavior in economic contexts. We are interested in natural behavior. As standard in experimental economics, you will receive no details on the background of this research. All necessary information will be provided when needed.

What happens with my data?

Researchers participating in this study work in accordance to the General Data Protection Regulation, the Law for Protection of Personal Data and Guarantee of Digital Rights, and the relevant Federal and State Data Protection Laws.

Personal identifiers will be destroyed after compensating participants. Once data is anonymized, you cannot be identified. We will analyze the data aggregately. We will not be able to identify any individual participating in this study. We will not draw any conclusions about any specific person.

Data will be stored with adequate safeguards, including file encryption, two-factor access verification, zero-standing access, virus scanning, ransomware detection, and version history. When the project is over, the anonymized database could be made available to other interested researchers.
