Do you have a disability? We are seeking people with various disabilities to participate in a usability study.
The Accessibility User Research Collective (AURC) and Microsoft researchers are conducting a usability study to gather data on the user experience of account.microsoft.com.
Microsoft customers use account.microsoft.com to manage their relationship with Microsoft, such as managing their purchases, updating their profile and privacy settings, reviewing billing and payments, and handling subscriptions. The purpose of this study will be to gather user experience data on the “Payments and Billing” vertical account.microsoft.com. Data gathered from this study will be used to improve the usability and accessibility of Microsoft products and services for people with various disabilities.
To be eligible you must:
Individuals with visual impairment (blindness/very low vision), cognitive disabilities, or learning disabilities
