No login credentials or account access are required, and all exports are performed by the participant. Once the exports are ready, participants upload the exported ZIP files through a secure submission form. Please find the app data export process for all the apps here Please find the submission form here Data Privacy A PII (Personally Identifiable Information) removal tool is available to scrub or mask personal information before the data is shared. No raw data is forwarded to the client without PII processing. Validation Each submitted application undergoes QA validation to ensure: • Successful export. • Correct file format. • Sufficient historical data. • Meaningful usage history. • Completeness of the exported data. If some applications are rejected, participants may submit additional eligible application exports until they meet the qualification criteria. Timeline The export process may take anywhere from a few minutes to 24–48 hours, depending on the application, as many apps generate exports asynchronously. Participants typically initiate the export first and upload the data once it becomes available. If this opportunity aligns with your recruitment capabilities, we'd be happy to share the complete list of eligible applications, detailed participant guidelines, and the onboarding process. Application Deadline: 31st July
