<h2>About our Research Participation Program</h2>
<p>At the Wikimedia Foundation, we are committed to making Wikipedia and the other Wikimedia projects as
useful and accessible as possible, for as many people as possible. Thorough and thoughtful research on
the needs and experiences of our current and future users helps us ensure that our product design can meet this goal.
This is why we rely on diverse perspectives in our research.
We realize that there are barriers to participating in our research for some, and we value the time, effort, and insights these folks give to the research process. In observance with best practices for research, to lower the barriers to participation and in recompense for time and internet data used, we are committed to offering a gratuity to our participants.</p>
<h2>Qualifying for Incentivized Research</h2>
<p>Research participants are recruited directly from our Wikimedia user base and communities. We typically
search for users with specific characteristics such as user activity, type of user, native languages,
role within a Wiki project, community membership, devices used to read or edit, etc. There are a number of channels we use to find research participants who will match the criteria for the study. To find the right types of participants, we may ask a community liaison for recommendations, reach out to editors on their Talk Pages, or post a recruitment message in a Village Pump or similar page. We frequently ask interested users to submit a screener survey to ensure the user is a good fit for the specific research study. We will also send a privacy statement that explains how
the Wikimedia Foundation plans to use and store personal information that participants provide in the
screener survey and during the research session. Our team will contact qualified users with information
about participating in the study, including information about the gratuity offered for participating.
For those selected to participate, we will also send a consent form for participants to sign that
explains the research activities and grants the WMF limited use of the data and insights obtained in the
session. After the research activities are completed, the research team will dispense the gratuities to
the participant.</p>
<p>Our team often contracts with research partners local to the population of interest. These “third party”
research partners may be involved in any stage of the research described above. They have all signed a
non-disclosure agreement, meaning they are prohibited from sharing user information or data outside of
the project they are contracted for. Research partners may contact participants, conduct the research
sessions, and they may also dispense gratuities.</p>
<h2>Activities Not Incentivized</h2>
<p>Gratuities or compensation are offered only when explicitly stated by the research team during the
recruiting period. The activities eligible for gratuities begin only after any relevant screener survey
and upon completion of the invited activities. We do not offer gratuities or compensation for any other
conversations or activities that are not described above. Examples of activities that are not compensated
are email or talk page exchanges, surveys unless gratuities are explicitly offered, commentary or
feedback on features or programs outside of a research session, screener surveys, etc.</p>
<h2>Gratuity Allocation</h2>
<p>Our research team will work with participants to determine gratuity distribution before research
activities commence. Accepting the gratuity is optional and participants also have the option to donate
their gratuity to a Wikimedia chapter or a nonprofit organization if they prefer.</p>
<p>The gratuity amounts are determined for each project by the research team based on the research
requirements. For some projects we offer a flat rate, regardless of participant location. For other
projects, we offer a localized rate. We start with a cost of living base rate based on the location
of participants. We adjust this rate according to the duration of the research session, any special
skills required, and internet data used during the session. Whenever possible, we consult partners in
the region where participants may be based to help inform us about local standards.</p>
<p>At this time, we are only able to issue gratuities through the following services: Ethn.io,
Tremendous.com, and Paypal.com. Terms of service for these companies are posted on their websites,
and accepting the gratuity signifies that the participant agrees to all terms. Due to the limited coverage
of these services, we cannot offer gratuities to those located outside of the covered regions, though we are
actively working on filling coverage gaps. Sometimes, Paypal may be the only service operating in certain
countries. In those cases, the participant will have to be able to receive payments through Paypal which
will require a Paypal account.</p>
