Users accessing Askable using a VPN will not be able to log into their accounts. This measure is enacted to ensure a secure and trustworthy environment for all users.
Why We're Doing This
Preventing Fraudulent Activity: VPNs are frequently utilized by individuals engaging in fraudulent activities online, allowing them to mask their true identity and location. By prohibiting VPN connections, Askable ensures that participants engage honestly and ethically, fostering genuine interactions between researchers and respondents.
Ensuring Data Accuracy: Accurate research relies on understanding customer behaviors within their specific demographics and locations. By requiring users to connect without VPNs, Askable ensures that researchers receive contextual and locally relevant data. This enables researchers to make informed decisions based on authentic and compliant information.
What This Means for You
Avoid VPN Usage: We kindly request all users to refrain from using VPN connections when accessing their Askable accounts.
Continued Access: Rest assured, you can still access all our services seamlessly, provided you do not use a VPN.
We appreciate your understanding and cooperation as we implement this policy. Our commitment is to enhance your experience and safeguard the integrity of our platform.
