• UPGRAD´D® Labs Volunteer Panel - Non-Disclosure Agreement

    Shape the Future of Skincare - Your Instant Opinions Matter!
  • YOUR INFORMATION

    By registering as a member of our volunteer panel, you agree that UPGRAD'D Labs may use your personal information, including your gender and ethnicity, to assess your eligibility for studies and invite you to take part. Rest assured that your information will not be used for marketing purposes. Please note we do not exchange any of your details with any third party or any other area of UPGRAD'D Labs. You can find out more about how we use your personal information in our privacy policy.
  • OUR INFORMATION

  • As a member of our volunteer panel, you will have access to upcoming products before they are
    released to the general public. The products themselves, and any information supplied with the
    products including packaging, literature and marketing material is confidential and must not be
    disclosed to any other person until we confirm that it is acceptable to do so, or if 12 months have
    expired since you received the confidential materials. This includes publishing about the product
    even if you don’t mention our brand or make any reference to the product trial – for example talking about a product concept.


    Publishing means telling any other person in any way; for example, in a conversation, by written
    word or recording (for example in a blog) or by social media. This includes telling friends or family
    members, which you might do in confidence, but in their excitement, who may then go on to publish confidential information themselves without realising.


    We ask you not to talk about the information and products you receive because as an early-stage
    development there will still be many kinks we’re working through that won’t be in the final product
    and this can cause lots of confusion on product release if there is conflicting information. It’s also
    possible we may have filed patents or other intellectual property to protect our concepts, and these may not have been published yet and a disclosure by you might prejudice those applications.


    Finally, it’s nice to save the surprises for other people.


    To confirm that you understand that the products and information we provide you in the volunteer
    panel are confidential we ask that you sign the Non-Disclosure Agreement below.
