This study takes about {{ experiment.duration }} to complete. {{ exp-format procedures }}
+
+
Participation is voluntary
+
+ You and your child are free to choose whether to be in this study. If you do choose to participate, it's okay to
+ stop at any point during the session. Please do pause or stop the session if your child becomes fussy or does
+ not want to participate!

Data collection and webcam recording
+
+ During the session, you and your child will be recorded by your computer's webcam and microphone. These webcam
+ recordings, and other data like answers you enter in forms, are sent securely to the Lookit platform. You can
+ view your past recordings on Lookit under "Studies" -> "Your past studies" at any time.
+
+
+ Data are stored securely on Lookit servers and by researchers, and are only shared as described in this
+ document. However, there is always a small risk that data transmitted over the internet may be intercepted or
+ that the security of stored data may be compromised.
+
+
+
Who will be able to see your webcam recordings?
+
+ We will first check that you really agreed to participate by watching your consent recording. If we cannot
+ confirm that you agreed to participate, no one will view any other recordings from this session.
+
+
+
+ At the end of the session, you will choose a privacy level for your webcam recordings. You can choose one of the
+ following privacy levels for your videos:
+
+ - "Private": Researchers with access to your recordings will not share them with anyone else.
+ - "Scientific": Researchers with access to your recordings may share them for scientific or educational
+ purposes, for instance showing an example in a class or during a scientific conference.
+
+ - "Publicity": Researchers with access to your recordings may also share them for publicity, for instance in a
+ news segment about the research or to recruit more participants.
+
+
+ You will also have the option to withdraw your recordings. If you do, only your consent recording will be kept
+ and all other recordings will be deleted.
+
+
+ {{#if include_databrary}}
+
+ Separately, you can opt in to give access to your recordings and other data to authorized users of the
+ secure data library Databrary. This means that other researchers besides the ones running this study will
+ have access to your recordings, and may be able to use them to answer other questions about
+ child development. Data sharing can lead to faster progress in research on human development and behavior.
+ Authorized Databrary researchers have to agree to maintain confidentiality and not use the data for
+ commercial purposes. If you have any questions about this data-sharing library, visit
+ Databrary or email
+ ethics@databrary.org.

How we use your data
+
+ If you participate in this study, we (the research group led by {{PIName}} at {{institution}})
+ will have access to:
+
+ - webcam recordings and other data collected during this session
+ - your account profile and demographic survey
+ - the child profile for the child who is participating
+
+ This includes changes you make in the future to any of this information. We may put different types of information
+ together to learn more about child development. For instance, if your child participates in multiple studies from
+ our group, we may look at how his or her responses compare across studies, or we may look at whether siblings tend
+ to respond similarly. We may also study connections between children’s responses and family demographic survey data.

How Lookit uses your data
+
+ The Lookit core team at MIT will also have access to the data collected during this session, in addition to your
+ account data. They use this data to run and improve Lookit, for instance to provide technical support, check how
+ well data collection is working, or see whether Lookit is reaching a diverse group of families. Lookit stores
+ data indefinitely unless you withdraw your recordings at the end of the study.
+
+
+
Publishing the results of this study
+
+ The results of this study may be presented at scientific meetings or published in scientific journals. We may
+ publish individual responses that cannot identify children, like looking times or sequences of button presses.
+ We never publish children’s birthdates or names. Even if you choose to share your recordings, we never publish
+ information that would make it possible to link recordings with your demographic data.
