What’s New?
The 20252:2019 standard is a significant change from the previous ISO 20252 and the panel access standard ISO 26362, with substantial content and format changes that affect all ISO-certified companies.
The changes combine the previous ISO 20252 & ISO 26362 and move the standard to a mandatory framework and a series of compulsory annexes (where applicable across your business). ISO 26362: 2009 has been withdrawn and incorporated into ISO 20252:2018 which covers both online and offline access panels. This is as a result of the emergence and global acceptance of online sampling as a primary sample source. Data analytics and digital observation are also more prominent.
The revised ISO 20252 standard has a stronger focus on information security and is based on annexes that cover the various methodologies.
The ISO 20252:2019 framework:
ADIA works with the following independent certification bodies to ensure auditors are suitably trained to the new standard and meet industry expectations in terms of providing our members with the very best service.

THE MEMBER TRUST MARK
Clients need to know that when using an ADIA Trust Mark Research Company they can feel confident your organisation’s integrity, profits and reputation is being protected by a research supplier engaging in legally compliant and independently audited market and social research methods. We, therefore, recommend members use one of the above companies for certification under the new standard.
