Does something like IRB apply to purely online opt-in research involving test subjects who may be asked to try physical, non-informational things offline?
Like say a survey that asks "take your pulse, run for five minutes, then take pulse again, and enter both on this form"?

so technically IRB should apply to even market research surveys and opinion polls? (what if the questions are stress inducing for eg)

There are state and national laws that apply to institutions that rely on government funding, like universities.
A lot of corp research would be covered under similar institutional mechanisms I imagine.
