The points program and its benefits are provided to you at the discretion of Touchstone Research, Inc. and Touchstone Research, Inc. has the right to terminate the program, or to change these terms and conditions, the exclusive awards, or conditions of participation, in whole or in part, at any time, with or without notice to you. Such changes include increasing the amount of points required to redeem any exclusive award, or change or removal of any of the awards currently available, at any time, with or without notice to you. If Touchstone Research, Inc. does provide notice of changes, it may do so by email, regular mail or by general posting on the Panel website. Other examples of the types of changes to the points program that Touchstone Research, Inc. may make are described in the Panel Terms and Conditions. Although every effort has been made to ensure that the information in this document is accurate, Touchstone Research, Inc. is not responsible for typographical errors or omissions.

Points will be deposited in member accounts in as little as a few seconds to as much as 4 weeks after completing the eligible survey or panel activity. Reasonable effort is made to correctly allocate earned points to a panelist's account. However, panelists/members are responsible for ensuring that their points are properly credited. Points will be maintained in member accounts until they are redeemed or forfeited, whichever occurs first.

Points may be redeemed once a panelist/member has accrued the required number of points for redemption provided that the panelist/member's account is in good standing. You may view your household points account balance or exchange points by logging in and accessing the appropriate features under the "Registered Panelist" menu section. This section of the site is restricted to members only, and members must enter their user name and password to view their account information and other points details. You agree to maintain the confidentiality of the username and password issued to you. You agree to immediately notify us of any unauthorized use of your account or any other breach of security known to you.

Only the registered panelist (primary panelist, in the case of a registered household with children this is the primary parent or legal guardian who registered the household with the panel) may exchange or redeem points.

Options available for redemption awards can be viewed and selected at Rewards on the Panel website. If it is an option posted at Rewards on the Panel website at the time of redemption, points may be redeemed for a monetary payment provided the minimum points balance requirement (as posted on the Rewards page of the Panel site at the time of redemption) has been met and are redeemed in allowable increments as posted on the Rewards page of the Panel site at the time of redemption). Alternatively, we may offer gifts that you may redeem your points for. Bonus points may sometimes be offered to our more active Panelists in addition to periodic prize drawings among active Panelists. Additionally, points may be offered for referrals of qualified participants into the panel. The value of a selected reward/minimum points requirements cannot exceed that of the number of points currently accrued in the panelist’s/member's points account. Choosing a reward of a lesser value is permitted, and any unused points will remain in the panelist’s account. Points will be immediately subtracted from the panelist’s account upon redemption. Neither redeemed prizes nor unredeemed points are transferable for cash except as designated on the Rewards page of the Site. Points have no cash value. Accounts with values less than the first eligible redemption level (minimum required points) are not eligible for any redemption award. Points may be spent only on rewards offered through TSR and its agent, if any, at the time of redemption. Redeemed points will be subtracted from the panelist’s/member's account once the reward is requested. TSR reserves the right to refuse a refund of points to a panelist/member if merchandise is returned.

Touchstone Research, Inc. may change or remove any of the points earning activities currently recognized, at any time, with or without notice to its panelists/members. The points that panelists/members earn are not considered to be property and, as such, one cannot sell, transfer, or assign their points to any other person, under any circumstances.
