Android/Nielsen Panel

atlantis187

I'm quite interested in joining this panel as I was previously on the Nokia panel which has shut down now.
Can anyone explain to me how their points reward system works as its sounds quite confusing. Which is the monetary value of the actual points and how much can u collect in a month/where can they be spend?
Before on the Nokia panel they used to just send out a £10 voucher every 3 months.

Also where can I find a list of all the Android phones that are supported on this panel?

Thanks

200 = £1, 1000 points is worth £5 of vouchers

You can also buy gifts direct from them at discount rates

£5/1000 points is normally the minimum withdrawl

Q: Who is Nielsen Mobile?
The Nielsen Company is the world's leading provider of marketing information, audience measurement and business media products and services. Through our Mobile Panel and other information services, we help the mobile industry build content, services and applications that consumers want by providing the industry with the best information on consumers.

Q: What have I signed up for?
Nielsen panel members have a long history of helping shape the growth and popularity of products. As a panel member, the websites you visits, applications you use and content you view or listen to on your phone will influence the future direction of the mobile industry. You will also get paid to participate: All active members will receive up to 10,000 points per annum for participating in the panel!

Q: What is the purpose of the panel?
The Mobile Panel is designed to help the mobile industry understand how consumers use their mobile devices, services and content. The panel produces anonymous, aggregate usage information that the industry uses to build, plan and manage their mobile offerings to consumers. The panel gathers this information through Meter software that runs silently and transparently in the background of your mobile phone. This software allows us to measure the applications you use and the websites you visit for the purpose of anonymous, aggregate measurement. We will never report your individual usage and will never release your personal information to third parties for marketing purposes (click here for complete details on the Membership Agreement; click here for complete details on the Privacy Policy).

Q: What type of data is being collected?
The Meter software measures general usage of your phone. For example, we collect information on:
• the type, name, use and installation of applications and games
• the address of the websites you visit
• the date and duration of the websites you visit
• the date, time and duration of phone calls, but not details on the phone numbers you call or receive calls from
• the date and time you send text/picture messages to or receive text/picture messages from
• the date, time, type and name of Bluetooth devices used with your phone
• the date and time when USB devices are connected to your phone
• battery levels, charger states, alarm usage, profile changes
• information on network traffic, use of WLAN and use of GPS
• the network performance of your phone, including signal quality readings and information on failed calls.
We do not listen to or record any of your phone calls.
We also do not examine, store or record any of the content of text or picture messages you send or receive. In addition, we cannot and do not read any of the contents of your other files or email messages.

Q: How is this data being sent to you?
The Meter software works by collecting usage information and sending the encrypted logs over a secure connection (https). The delivery of these log files is approximately 300-600 KB a month. In addition, when you download and activate the meter, it will download a file size of 260 KB and will produce two SMS messages for downloading/activation. The SMS messages and use of the wireless network may results in billable charges from your mobile operator depending on your rate plan.

Q: What are you going to do with this information?
The collected data will be used to produce anonymous research reports and analyses. These reports and analyses are used to build, plan and manage the next generation of mobile technology.

Resurrecting this thread...

Does anyone know how many points per month you get from Nielsen?

Mine seem to vary from 500 most months to 1000 or even 2000 some months....

Thanks

Rusty!

Yeah mine varies like that too.

Hi , you are credited on average with 250 points per week but some times it can be a little erratic, you usually get a 500 point welcome and then 1000 per month worth a total of around £62.50p per year.
