When you sign up to participate in research studies with L&E Research through LEOpinions, we ask you for certain information about yourself so we can match you to the right kinds of studies.
Here’s a simple breakdown of the types of information we might ask for — and why:
Basic Personal Information
To identify and contact you:
- Full name
- Email address
- Phone number
- Zip code or city/state

Demographics
To match you with studies aimed at certain audiences:
- Age
- Gender identity
- Ethnicity or race
- Marital status
