Form Usability - Explain why you are asking

Put in a short sentence to tell your visitors why you need the information 

You should consider explaining on your form when:

  • the forms ask for unfamiliar data
  • people question why they are being asked for specific data
  • people may be concerned about the security or privacy of their data

This form get it right. Example, refer to the Age and Postal Address field
