Before you apply
Do I need to buy anything?
No. Applying is free and requires no subscription or card.
Can I give negative feedback?
Yes. Critical feedback is welcome and does not reduce any benefit agreed in the invitation. A failed task caused by an app problem is useful research feedback.
When will I hear back?
You can start immediately after submitting. Your confirmation email includes a personal link valid for 30 days. If it does not arrive, check spam or contact assistenza@luxcerivo.com.
Will my name appear on the page?
No. Public progress shows aggregate verified test counts. Any testimonial, photo or named contribution requires separate permission.
