Use of Web Browser Cookies

The MyView website uses Web Browser Cookies for two purposes:

  1. To enable a user to maintain a persistent login.
  2. To determine whether or not a user has already participated in a front page poll.

By agreeing to the Terms and Conditions, you agree to allow the MyView website to use cookies for the aforementioned purposes.

Two types of cookies are utilised by the MyView Website:

  1. A session based cookie, which is created when the user logs into the website, allowing them to remain temporarily logged in for a period up to 30 minutes, or until they close their browser (whichever of these two events occurs first).
  2. Persistent cookies, which are created whenever the user logs into the website and selects the "Stay Signed In" option, or whenever a user participates in a front page poll. Persistent cookies are stored on the user's computer, and contain no unencrypted personal information. The persistent login cookie allows the user to maintain a 'logged in' status for a period of up to 30 days since their last visit to the website. In the event that 30 days passes without the user visiting the MyView website, this persistent cookie will no longer be considered valid, and the user will once again be asked to login to the MyView website. The front page poll cookie contains no information whatsoever that specifically pertains to a user's account.

We assure you that neither cookie contains unencrypted personal information, nor do they allow for the collection of any unsolicited information that might subsequently be used to determine a user's eligibility for a survey, or to perform targeted market research.

Account Updates

Your account will be updated or credited each time you earn points by taking a survey. In most cases, your account will be credited by the next business day after survey completion, but may take up to 28 days. Your account will be debited immediately each time you redeem points.

In the event of occasional error, I-view Pty Ltd reserves the right to make adjustments to panelist points accounts.

In the future, additional methods of earning points may become available. Points may be added to accounts at the sole discretion of I-view Pty Ltd.

Expiration of Points

Points never expire as long as you continue to be an active member of the MyView panel and as long as the points program remains in effect.

However, if you unsubscribe from MyView or if your membership is terminated, your points account will be closed within 12 months and at that time, all points will be forfeited. Also, if you allow your membership to become inactive (that is, you don’t respond to any survey invitation for a period of time), we reserve the right to terminate your membership and close your account; in this case, all points will be forfeited as described above.

Points and the MyView Reward System

Points have no cash value and cannot be exchanged for cash. Points have no value apart from the value for redemption.

Points will be rewarded for every survey that is validly completed. These points can only be redeemed for rewards from our online rewards catalogue, and cannot be transferred or converted into cash. If you unsubscribe from our panel, or we remove you, any points you have accumulated in your account will be forfeited. If a member is suspected of dishonest or fraudulent behaviour, I-view maintains the right to terminate membership and any points earned.

The number of points you earn depends on the average length of any survey you complete, and as per what’s quoted on the email invitation we send to you and as listed as follows:

  • 100 points for completed surveys of up to 10 minutes in length
  • 200 points for completed surveys of between 11 and 20 minutes in length
  • 300 points for completed surveys of between 21 and 30 minutes in length
  • 400 points for completed surveys of between 31 and 40 minutes in length
  • 500 points for completed surveys of between 41 and 50 minutes in length

NB. 100 points is approximately equivalent to AUD$1.00

We may at any time change the activities that entitle you to earn points; however, any such changes will be stated on our website.

You should receive your points within 28 days after a survey closes. It is your responsibility to contact MyView if your points are not properly deposited at any time. MyView will not be liable for any errors regarding points if you do not notify us within a reasonable period of time from when the error was made.

I-view reserves the right to make changes to any reward available in our online catalogue without prior notice. I-view does not take any responsibility for any liability arising in conjunction with the purchase or use of products available on our online catalogue. Any dispute about a product should be directed to the supplier or manufacturer of the goods. Any item redeemed for points may not be exchanged, returned or redeemed for cash.

I-view reserves the right to reclaim any rewards that are redeemed in error or due to fraudulent activity.

Once an item has been redeemed for points via our online catalogue, I-view is no longer responsible for any loss, damage or theft of any redeemed reward thereafter.

Members will be able to verify and/or change their mailing details before selected item is redeemed and points are deducted. Merchandise can only be shipped to approved Australian shipping locations and addresses accurately provided upon redemption.

Transferability

Points cannot be transferred between panelist accounts.

Redemptions

Redemptions can be successfully processed only if you have enough points indicated for the item(s) selected.
