Tester Code of Conduct
We ask that you don’t accept any tests if you’re not ready to focus on the tasks and give your honest and constructive feedback.
So both customers and contributors have a positive experience with the Testapic Platform, we require all contributors to accept and abide by a set of policies collectively referred to as the Agreement. These policies include our Terms of Service, Privacy Policy, and Tester Code of Conduct. As a tester, you acknowledge and accept this Agreement when you sign up to join the Testapic Tester Network (and each time you log in to the Testapic Platform).
We strongly encourage you to review the details of each policy carefully. If we determine that you’re in violation of this Agreement, we reserve the right to remove your account.
The Contributor Code of Conduct outlines our expectations of contributors as they access and use the Platform. These standards exist to promote customer confidence in the feedback they receive and to help contributors succeed as valuable members of the Network.
The Code of Conduct applies to all actions across the Testapic Platform including but not limited to account activity, interactions with customers and customer information, and behavior during test recordings.
We've shared some of the most important agreements from these policies that you should remember:
Your Account Information
As a Testapic tester, you agree to:
- Only create an account if you are at least 18 years old
- Create only one Testapic account
- Not allow anyone else to use or share your Testapic account
- Provide accurate and up-to-date information in your profile
- Make sure that the location listed on your profile is where you live most of the time
- Use only one PayPal account that belongs to you and not someone else
- Refrain from taking tests while traveling outside of the country listed in your profile
Safety and Respect
As a Testapic tester, you agree to:
- Not engage in the harassment or intimidation of Testapic employees or customers
- Be mindful of what your webcam displays when you join a Live Conversation or participate in a test that requires Face Recording
- Never share any customer information or material you’re given access to while testing
- Avoid any dangerous or risky behaviors while using the Testapic Platform (e.g. driving while taking a test)
Testing
As a Testapic tester, you agree to:
- Provide honest responses to screeners

- Not employ or utilize any AI-generated responses, or otherwise use any AI content generation tools, when using the Testapic Platform or participating in a test
Protecting Your Privacy While Testing
Your privacy is important to us. Testapic doesn’t sell your personal information and only uses it for legitimate business reasons such as providing you with customer support or sending you rewards for completing a test. See our privacy policy to learn more.
Customers are required to get your consent before asking you to share sensitive personal information
You can always accept, decline, or quit any test that becomes available to you, based on your comfort level. Declining or quitting a test that asks for personal information will not prevent you from being invited to other tests and will not impact your contributor score.
NOTE: Your videos are shared with our customers for their business use. Please do not reveal any information during a test that you do not want to share.
Is there information I should never share?
Although it is up to you what personal information you decide to share while testing, you should NEVER share prohibited personal information.
Prohibited Personal Information
- Credit card #
- Drivers License #
- Car Loan #
- Personal financial account numbers
- Passport number
- Account passwords
- Social Security number
- Specific genetic information (e.g., genetic test results)
- Biometric identifiers (e.g., fingerprints, voice prints, iris and retina scans)
- Health plan account or beneficiary numbers
What if a customer asks me to make a purchase?
You should NEVER make a purchase with your own information while testing. If the task instructions include fake financial information for your use, please complete the tasks that require personal information with these fake details. If you are asked to purchase something using your own information during a test, please report a problem.
For more information on how Testapic uses your information, see our Privacy Policy. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us.
During a test can I provide fake personal details instead?
If the test did not include a requirement to provide valid personal information, or if you did not agree to provide valid personal information in your responses to the screener questions, then yes, you can provide fake personal information during a test.
Keep in mind this guideline applies only to the disclosure of personal information that is not prohibited. You should NEVER share prohibited personal information with a customer.
You can use a fake mailing address and a free email account (e.g. Hotmail, Gmail, Yahoo) to use just for testing purposes. If you want to ensure that it’s valid, look up a mailing address for a city office in your area and use this address when testing.
What if I accidentally show my information with Chrome auto-fill?
If you accidentally display your personal information because the Chrome auto-fill feature is activated on your browser, you can quit the test and report a problem.
In the future, if you don’t want your autofill to show during your test, please turn it off before you begin.
You may also want to save a set of fake information to use on tests.
