Participant Notices

Effective Date: August 12, 2026 · Version: 2026-08-12.1

1. Voluntary Participation

Participation is voluntary. You may choose not to participate, and you may stop participating at any time. If you attend a session, Conduit may collect neural, biometric, voice, video, computer-interaction, typing, screen, movement, and related study data as described in the materials provided to you at the session.

Acknowledgment: I understand that participation is voluntary and that I may stop participating at any time.

2. Participant Status

If you participate, you are a paid research participant. You are not an employee, contractor, consultant, agent, service provider, intern, or worker of Conduit. Any participant payment is not wages or compensation for services.

Acknowledgment: I understand that I am requesting to participate as a voluntary paid research participant, not as Conduit personnel.

3. No Medical Care

Conduit does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, treatment, monitoring, emergency services, or health care services through this research session. Do not rely on the session, any study activity, or any Conduit communication as medical guidance or as a substitute for care from a licensed health care provider.

Acknowledgment: I understand that this research session is not medical care.

4. Flashing-Light and Seizure Risk

Your session may include tasks with flashing, flickering, strobe-like, rapidly changing, or high-contrast visual content. In some people, this content can trigger a seizure or symptoms such as headache, nausea, dizziness, disorientation, eye discomfort, or other distress. Some people may not know that they are sensitive to flashing or flickering visual content until they are exposed to it.

Before the session begins, tell Conduit personnel if you have a personal or family history of epilepsy or seizures; have previously experienced a seizure, loss of awareness, unusual movement, or another reaction associated with flashing lights; or are sensitive to flashing or flickering lights or high-contrast patterns. Telling Conduit does not automatically disqualify you from participating. If you experience any symptoms or discomfort, look away from the visual content and tell the session operator immediately. You may decline or stop any task at any time.

Acknowledgment: I understand that the session may include flashing or flickering visual content, that this content may trigger a seizure or other symptoms in some people, and that I should disclose relevant personal or family history or light sensitivity to Conduit personnel before the session.
