Memorandum Of Association Constitution of Company.pptseri bangash
www.seribangash.com
A Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document that outlines the fundamental principles and objectives upon which a company operates. It serves as the company's charter or constitution and defines the scope of its activities. Here's a detailed note on the MOA:
Contents of Memorandum of Association:
Name Clause: This clause states the name of the company, which should end with words like "Limited" or "Ltd." for a public limited company and "Private Limited" or "Pvt. Ltd." for a private limited company.
https://seribangash.com/article-of-association-is-legal-doc-of-company/
Registered Office Clause: It specifies the location where the company's registered office is situated. This office is where all official communications and notices are sent.
Objective Clause: This clause delineates the main objectives for which the company is formed. It's important to define these objectives clearly, as the company cannot undertake activities beyond those mentioned in this clause.
www.seribangash.com
Liability Clause: It outlines the extent of liability of the company's members. In the case of companies limited by shares, the liability of members is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. For companies limited by guarantee, members' liability is limited to the amount they undertake to contribute if the company is wound up.
https://seribangash.com/promotors-is-person-conceived-formation-company/
Capital Clause: This clause specifies the authorized capital of the company, i.e., the maximum amount of share capital the company is authorized to issue. It also mentions the division of this capital into shares and their respective nominal value.
Association Clause: It simply states that the subscribers wish to form a company and agree to become members of it, in accordance with the terms of the MOA.
Importance of Memorandum of Association:
Legal Requirement: The MOA is a legal requirement for the formation of a company. It must be filed with the Registrar of Companies during the incorporation process.
Constitutional Document: It serves as the company's constitutional document, defining its scope, powers, and limitations.
Protection of Members: It protects the interests of the company's members by clearly defining the objectives and limiting their liability.
External Communication: It provides clarity to external parties, such as investors, creditors, and regulatory authorities, regarding the company's objectives and powers.
https://seribangash.com/difference-public-and-private-company-law/
Binding Authority: The company and its members are bound by the provisions of the MOA. Any action taken beyond its scope may be considered ultra vires (beyond the powers) of the company and therefore void.
Amendment of MOA:
While the MOA lays down the company's fundamental principles, it is not entirely immutable. It can be amended, but only under specific circumstances and in compliance with legal procedures. Amendments typically require shareholder

2. INTRODUCTION
The primary aim of these 28 Questions is to increase transparency and raise awareness of the key issues for researchers to
consider when deciding whether an online sampling approach is fit for their purpose. Put another way, the aim is to help
researchers to ensure that what they receive meets their expectations. The questions are also designed to introduce consistent
terminology for providers to state how they maintain quality, to enable buyers to compare the services of different sample
suppliers. Notes on the context of the questions explain why the questions should be asked and which issues researchers should
expect to be covered in the answer.
These new questions replace ESOMAR’s “26 Questions to help Research Buyers of Online Samples”. ESOMAR has updated the text
to recognize the ongoing development of techniques. While some of the questions remain constant, new questions have been
added to incorporate new techniques and new technology in this area. In particular, this revision recognises the broad trend
within the industry to build online samples from multiple sources rather than relying on a single panel.
It should be noted that these 28 Questions focus on the questions that need to be asked by those buying online samples. If the
sample provider is also hosting the data collection you will need to ask additional questions to ensure that your project is carried
out in a way that satisfies your quality requirements. The 28 Questions complement ESOMAR’s Guideline to Online Research
which was revised in 2011 to add updated legal and ethical guidance and new sections on privacy notices, cookies, downloadable
technology and interactive mobile.
This document has been prepared by Oceanof Panels. For any questions or clarifications, please feel free to get in touch on

3. COMPANY PROFILE
1. What experience does your company have in providing online samples for market research?
Founded in early 2013, Oceanof Panels is a part of a highly experienced, ISO certified (Marketplace company certification) and
accredited panel marketplace which also provides the technological and panel management solutions for our proprietary panels.
With over 30 000 interviews already held since inception on our proprietary panels through the shared marketplace, we have
collected the finest quality data from authentic individuals who provide real, accurate responses.
Oceanof Panels has built and nurtured a one of its kind proprietary online panel community wherein a majority of panelists are
organically recruited through our sister concern that deals in technical services worldwide. The high tide of database routed to
Oceanof Panels is of a highly active and authentic online customers that seek technical services with computer software and
hardware related issues. Our innovative recruitment strategy along with the experienced panel marketplace provider, helps us
maintain a consistent highly responsive panel in the United States and India.
Backed with proprietary panels that has been consistently providing highest response rate, Oceanof Panels has brought in fresh
and innovative ideas to the industry in its little over a year’s time since inception, the strategic alliance with the marketplace
provider has helped us in further leveraging its decade long experience in the Online Panel arena.
4. SAMPLE SOURCES AND RECRUITMENT
2. Please describe and explain the type(s) of online sample sources from which you get respondents. Are
these databases? Actively managed research panels? Direct marketing lists? Social networks? Web intercept
(also known as river) samples?
Oceanof Panels recruits the panel data through strict double opt-in verification. Our company’s associate partner (Oceanof
Technical Services LLP) provides us a high tide of 100 to 200 opted-in email data on a daily basis forming our organically grown
respondents. Our meticulous recruitment process involves verification and identity listing via billing address information and
understanding their wired consistency. We currently operate www.surveytouch.co opinion panel for USA and India.
Even though a majority of data is from our sister company, we consult our data providing channels to deliver you with the best
amalgamation of results. The panel recruitment is affiliated with highly reliable panel vendors and affiliate marketers, which
further ensures the quality of panellist undertaking our surveys.
3. If you provide samples from more than one source: How are the different sample sources blended
together to ensure validity? How can this be replicated over time to provide reliability? How do you deal with the
possibility of duplication of respondents across sources?
We provide proprietary samples from a unique panel source in our proprietary panels i.e. USA, India.
However, for the studies within the shared marketplace, our tool uses a suite of technologies and controls that ensure that
duplicates are not present in any online sample. Our technology supports both RelevantID and TrueSample.
5. SAMPLE SOURCES AND RECRUITMENT
4. Are your sample source(s) used solely for market research? If not, what other purposes are they used for?
Yes, our panels are solely used for market research purposes.
When members register, they are informed that their account is to be used exclusively for research. Every panel in the online
exchange adheres to ESOMAR standards relating to the mandated ethics for the execution of research.
5. How do you source groups that may be hard to reach on the internet?
Panellists are profiled when they join our panel, and continuously over time, so specific target groups can be identified. As our
marketplace permits sourcing from multiple panels, it makes it possible to find harder-to-reach groups in suitable sizes to run
surveys as you are reaching into a larger pool of respondents from many different sources through the marketplace, rather than a
traditional online (single-source) panel.
We also collaborate closely with other panel owners in the marketplace to continually build the total sourcing pool, building the
leading marketplace available for research sample.
6. SAMPLE SOURCES AND RECRUITMENT
6. If, on a particular project, you need to supplement your sample(s) with sample(s) from other providers,
how do you select those partners? Is it your policy to notify a client in advance when using a third party provider?
Oceanof Panels let’s the client choose on how they want to sample. We provide them with the option of using our unique
proprietary panels in USA and India or a combination of ours and various other panels from the shared marketplace. The client is
informed about this initially and ensured that the client is completely aware of our sampling processes at the project
commencement stage.
We only use our proprietary panels for all the projects commissioned for USA and INDIA, but in cases where we are unable to
complete the quotas or the study is for any country apart from these two, we use our panel marketplace which gives us access to
professionally managed sample pools from several other panel owners under one roof. These partners are chosen based on their
capabilities and quality control measures, and their adherence to ISO-based processes.
In cases the client requests Oceanof Panels to source panellists from third-party sources (Outside the Marketplace), this process is
performed in compliance with our tools’ ISO standards as well as our policy on complete transparency with our clients.
7. SAMPLING AND PROJECT MANAGEMENT
7. What steps do you take to achieve a representative sample of the target population?
Our technology gives us the opportunity to select ‘census representativity’ on both survey send-outs and set quotas. The platform
provides the correct allocation to achieve the proper distribution based on census data.
8. Do you employ a survey router?
Yes, our technology has an integrated survey router and dynamic profiler. This increases panel reach and sample efficiency by
addressing deficiencies in first generation stand-alone router systems, which can often result in poor panelist experience and
higher panelist churn. This helps us in increased permission-based profiling depth and proper targeting and also keeping panel
members incentivized, happy and continuing to take surveys. However, the router can be controlled on both source and project
basis in cases where the client restricts its usage.
9. If you use a router: Please describe the allocation process within your router. How do you decide which
surveys might be considered for a respondent? On what priority basis are respondents allocated to surveys?
If the respondent does not qualify for the intended survey (screened-out, quota full, etc.), our tool will attempt to match the
respondent to another open study by matching the stored profile of the respondent to open studies. If there is a match, there are
no qualifying questions asked. If there is a partial match, the panellist will be asked the remaining qualifying questions. The
respondent can opt-out at any time during the router experience.
8. SAMPLING AND PROJECT MANAGEMENT
10. If you use a router: What measures do you take to guard against, or mitigate, any bias arising from
employing a router? How do you measure and report any bias?
We only use the router on studies that are not likely to be affected by or likely will not negatively affect the available routed
traffic. With high volume and a wide mix of target populations, we mitigate the risk of router bias.
Our tool does not utilize routing methods that can create systematic prioritization of certain categories or studies which would
create bias. The randomization element used in the routing algorithm is key. In the event a client wants measurement and
reporting, we make available a full dataset of the respondent’s entire pre-profiling process in the router.
11. If you use a router: Who in your company sets the parameters of the router? Is it a dedicated team or
individual project managers?
Oceanof Panels’ project managers in consultation with the marketplace company decide whether a project will utilize routing. All
routing parameters are set globally by a centralized operations team. A carefully selected and limited number of administrators
have access to view or change these parameters. Project managers can neither view nor change the global routing preferences.
9. SAMPLING AND PROJECT MANAGEMENT
12. What profiling data is held on respondents? How is it done? How does this differ across sample sources?
How is it kept up-to-date? If no relevant profiling data is held, how are low incidence projects dealt with?
Standard profile data stored includes: email address, name, address, phone numbers, gender, postal code, year of birth, education
level, occupation and all panel-specific profiling. Our tool also has a number of standard ‘global questions’ (90 questions with sub
questions) which are used across all panels and countries in the marketplace to obtain detailed standardized data on panelists.
These ‘global questions’ include questions pertaining to: automotive preferences, healthcare, employment, travel, etc.
This data is updated every time panelists make changes to the profile information in their account, either proactively or through
panel communications (profile surveys, newsletters, etc). Also, after responding to a survey (as a complete, quota-full or screened-
out participant), panelists are presented with the opportunity to complete additional questions from the global questions list, to
ensure their profile is kept up to date.
10. SAMPLING AND PROJECT MANAGEMENT
13. Please describe your survey invitation process. What is the proposition that people are offered to take
part in individual surveys? What information about the project itself is given in the process? Apart from direct
invitations to specific surveys (or to a router), what other means of invitation to surveys are respondents exposed
to? You should note that not all invitations to participate take the form of emails.
For studies on proprietary panels Oceanof Panels sets up its own invitations in the tool using the panel management dashboard
controls with all items required by ISO 20252 (Marketplace company certification) are included in email invitations:
• A general description of the purpose of the project
• The estimated length of interview
• A statement of the confidentiality and anonymity of each respondent’s responses
• The closing date for completed responses (if applicable)
• Access to full disclosure of incentive terms and conditions applying to the project
• An explanation if the invitation is sent out on behalf of another research service provider
• For panel members, the opportunity to unsubscribe or opt out of future research
• An appropriate privacy policy or statement
There are also clear instructions within the invite if the respondent is required to undertake a particular task, or is required to
have a specific software or capability on their PC, laptop, mobile or other device. For those who do not wish to take part in the
survey, there is a ‘decline’ option that is embedded in the email. The invite also includes a support email address for any queries
relating to the survey.
11. SAMPLING AND PROJECT MANAGEMENT
14. Please describe the incentives that respondents are offered for taking part in your surveys. How does this
differ by sample source, by interview length, by respondent characteristics?
The number of points awarded is driven by the length of interview (LOI). On reaching a redemption level set by Oceanof Panels in
the tool, panelists can redeem their rewards through different online payment partners linked to the tool. The size of the
redemption is based on the number of points earned. Panelists can choose to receive their rewards in cash sent to their bank
accounts (e.g. via PayPal) or they can shop online with online merchants.
15. What information about a project do you need in order to give an accurate estimate of feasibility using
your own resources?
• The demographics being sought (age, gender, regions, etc.)
• Any non-demographic targeting or behavioral criteria necessary to qualify
• Any quotas or sub-quotas which need to be achieved
• Additional sampling (deployment) criteria if applicable (i.e. census representative deployment or balanced send-outs to initiate
the survey)
12. SAMPLING AND PROJECT MANAGEMENT
16. Do you measure respondent satisfaction? Is this information made available to clients?
Yes, every respondent that completes a questionnaire has the option to voice their opinion.
They are asked set questions on survey length, logic, language and are also able to give feedback in an open text box. This
information is available to clients on request.
17. What information do you provide to debrief your client after the project has finished?
For each project, we provide standard information on number of responses, status of responses (i.e. completes, screen outs,
quota full and drop outs) as well as average length of interview and incidence rate.
13. DATA QUALITY AND VALIDATION
18. Who is responsible for data quality checks? If it is you, do you have in place procedures to reduce or
eliminate undesired within survey behaviours, such as (a) random responding, (b) Illogical or inconsistent
responding, (c) overuse of item non-response (e.g. “Don’t Know”) or (d) speeding (too rapid survey completion)?
Please describe these procedures.
Along with the quality assurance procedures at Oceanof Panels, our technology/marketplace management company has a
dedicated quality assurance team, which is responsible for maintenance and advancement of the quality of panels in the
marketplace. Oceanof panels also works with clients to have them deploy appropriate validation checks, including but not limited
to: analysis of questionnaire completion time, data outliers, unanswered questions and patterned responses. Respondents who
do not pass these checks do not qualify as completes and do not qualify for an incentive.
If a client reports cheaters in a survey, Oceanof Panels project managers remove these from the survey through our tool. After a
panelist receives “three strikes,” they are taken out of our panel and the marketplace platform.
Every respondent invited to a study is put into a quarantine system. This ensures a panelist cannot be invited to a study beyond
the frequency level set forth as per the quality standards.
14. DATA QUALITY AND VALIDATION
19. How often can the same individual be contacted to take part in a survey within a specified period whether
they respond to the contact or not? How does this vary across your sample sources?
Our tool holds detailed data for each panelist on which survey they have taken part in; therefore, a panelist can easily be included
or excluded in another survey.
Regardless of sample source, our tool allows for one invite and one reminder to a single survey opportunity. Typical lock-out
periods for inviting to a new survey opportunity is seven days, but this can vary depending on the country and panel.
Each panel owner within the market place also can choose their desired ‘quarantine period’ (i.e. the time between survey
invitation mailings) to ensure panelists do not receive too many invitations.
20. How often can the same individual take part in a survey within a specified period? How does this vary
across your sample sources? How do you manage this within categories and/or time periods?
Depending on the quarantine settings on both the panel and the panelist, this ranges from once a month to three times per week.
Panelist may only complete the same survey once. De-duplication, re-use and the lock-out period for quota-fulls or terminates is
set on a per-project basis based on client-preference. The default allows no re-entry once an official status (complete, terminate,
etc.) is achieved. For tracking surveys, de-duplication, re-use or lock-out period for subsequent waves is set according to client-
preference.
15. DATA QUALITY AND VALIDATION
21. Do you maintain individual level data such as recent participation history, date of entry, source, etc., on
your survey respondents? Are you able to supply your client with a project analysis of such individual level data?
Our tool saves detailed panelist participation data which includes: panelist join date, last participation date, transaction history on
all surveys, redemptions, reward points transactions, etc. As our tool strictly adheres to all applicable privacy law and regulation,
personally identifiable information is never made available.
The tool utilizes an indexing system which gives each panelist a score depending on how active they are with respect to survey
participation. A participation history is recorded and additional exclusion can be applied on a subject category. Respondents can
also be excluded from future surveys by excluding previous projects when selecting sample in the tool.
Upon request we can provide participation history reports to clients.
16. DATA QUALITY AND VALIDATION
22. Do you have a confirmation of respondent identity procedure? Do you have procedures to detect
fraudulent respondents? Please describe these procedures as they are implemented at sample source registration
and/or at the point of entry to a survey or router. If you offer B2B samples what are the procedures there, if any?
Our tool has a range of features to deal with professional/duplicate respondents. The system includes stratified sampling to get
various types of respondents, including active and less-active panelists. The length of the survey is evaluated and compared
against individual answers. The tool identifies and excludes multiple panel respondents both through email address and by name.
Postal address and bank data is also investigated if the payment method supports this. As all research stakeholders would agree,
quality of response is also affected by the quality of the questionnaire. Our project managers provide feedback to clients of all
potential issues which could affect fieldwork, both before project launch as well as on project completion.
23. Please describe the ‘opt-in for market research’ processes for all your online sample sources.
At the time of panel recruitment, panelists are made aware of the purpose of the panel (i.e. to take part in market research). Each
panelist is double-opted in. When invites are sent out to panelists, they are notified of the confidential nature of their responses
and given the opportunity to ‘opt out’ of the panel. As part of the registration process, panelists are asked to fill out several key
profiling questions, including a confirmation of their consent to join the market research panel. Upon confirmation, the panelist
will receive an automatic email sent directly to the email address they provided in the registration process, allowing them to
double opt-in to the panel. The email contains a link within it, as well as a user name and password. The link will direct them back
to the panelist site, hosted on our partner’s servers where the panelist signs in with their username and password.
POLICIES AND COMPLIANCE
17. POLICIES AND COMPLIANCE
24. Please provide a link to your Privacy Policy. How is your Privacy Policy provided to your respondents?
Our Privacy Policy is also provided in the panellist website (footer) and survey invitation/communication mails.
25. Please describe the measures you take to ensure data protection and data security.
Oceanof Panels and its marketplace partners are all required to adhere to local data protection laws and legislation. All
information supplied to Oceanof Panels by its clients is treated in the strictest of confidence and follows all applicable national law
and regulation. If any research results or confidential information is provided by a client, it is not used in any other research
project unless the client authorizes it.
Sampling security on our tool:
• Access to project information is only granted to the user who creates each project.
• Users are automatically logged off after a given period of non-activity.
• Users must sign in using a username and password.
• Respondents reach their surveys by GUIDS (globally unique identifiers).
Panel management security across the marketplace:
• Marketplace panel and panelist information is only granted to the company who owns the panel. This does not include any personally
identifiable data.
18. POLICIES AND COMPLIANCE
26. What practices do you follow to decide whether online research should be used to present commercially
sensitive client data or materials to survey respondents?
Oceanof Panels’ Project managers thoroughly test survey links for:
• Correct implementation of re-directs
• Appropriate survey logic
• Appropriate language
• Accurate quota set up
• Appropriate interview length
• Whether or not there is any personal, sensitive or prohibited questions being asked
• Whether or not panelists can choose a ‘prefer not to answer’ option with any income or ethnicity questions
• Overall quality
If the survey contains any sensitive material or content, that is clearly cited in the survey invite and, where appropriate within the
survey, giving panelists the opportunity to opt-out. As required, we exercise Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs) with clients and
panelists, highlighting the sensitivity of the material. These NDAs mandate that all information within the survey must be kept
confidential and any breach of proprietary information may be cause for legal action. If any item in the questionnaire or its fielding
are not to compliance with marketplace quality standards, the project manager will promptly communicate with the client making
recommendations for any necessary changes. All such interactions are logged.

owners in the marketplace are required to inform panelists that any personal information gathered is kept strictly confidential, is
never passed onto a third party without the panelist’s permission, all information is used for market research only and panelists

28. Do you conduct online surveys with children and young people? If so, do you adhere to the standards that ESOMAR
provides? What other rules or standards, for example COPPA in the United States, do you comply with?
We follow all applicable national law and regulation for conducting surveys with children, only performing online surveys with
children and young people after receiving parental consent.
All surveys with children are addressed to parents who are asked to grant permission and make the survey available to their child.
Survey invites inform the panelist (parent) of the length of interview, survey topic and encourages parents to sit with their child as
they fill-out the survey.
