Confidentiality/protection of data

[David McFarlane]

Jonathan,

Hmm, is this what other people call a Flanker Task?  But on to your question...

Whether or not your data travel through any servers all depends on 
you.  By default, E-Prime saves data to the same folder as your 
experiment program (.ebs/.ebs2 file).  So if you run the program from 
a local drive, then by default your data get stored to that local 
drive, and if you run your program from a networked drive on a server 
(a bad idea for many reasons), then by default your data get stored 
to that networked drive.

Then E-Prime also has mechanisms that allow you to store data to a 
location that you specify.  Using that, you could run your experiment 
program from any local or networked drive, and have the data stored 
to any other local or networked drive.

So again, whether or not your data travel through any servers is up 
to you.  But as Sean already said, under any ordinary circumstances 
everything just stays on your local machine.  But don't take our word 
for that, please ask PST Support yourself, and let us know what they say.

Regards,
