Survey Privacy Policy

In summary

Actyp is committed to protecting your privacy.

We use the information we collect on our surveys to provide information to support better decision-making by those interested in that information.

The process is intended to be clear. You are given full control over the information you provide and whether and how any identification is linked to that information.

You can access all the information you have provided.

Actyp will not sell, trade, give or rent any personally identifiable information obtained from you to a third party unless you consent unless we are required to do so by law enforcement agencies or other legal action.

Actyp’s commitment to you as a survey participant or customer includes:

1. Allowing you to decide what personally identifiable information we collect.
2. Protection of your privacy.
3. Respect for your requests regarding our contact with you.

Our Chief Information Officer is Peter Dost, who may be contacted at admin@actyp.com for further information and to raise any concerns.

Overview of Privacy Policy

Protection of your privacy is of fundamental importance to Actyp. As an independent research business, our commitment to your privacy is absolute. If we do not satisfy our clients about privacy protection, we do not have a business.

The purpose of our surveys is to share information in a confidential and trusting manner for the benefit of participants. The information and commitments in this privacy policy apply to all sites administered by Actyp.

We do not accept advertising on our web sites and will absolutely not use your email addresses for any purpose not connected with the management of our surveys.

We use a type of cookie, called a session object, to maintain the connection between pages during the time that you are entering responses to the survey. All our cookies are deleted from your computer as soon as your session expires. No identifying information is left on your computer.

Neither general nor custom reports will identify individual responses, although quotations may be made from textual responses if in our opinion this cannot identify the respondent. Fields with three or fewer responses in Benchmark surveys will be withheld from publication.

Individual responses will not be identified to any party not using the username and password corresponding to the secure access of that individual. No identifying information is connected to survey responses unless you explicitly agree to share your responses with the survey sponsor. Details of which username corresponds with which email address is held separately from password data and also separately from responses. Respondents are urged to keep their username and password details confidential as Actyp and its employees and associates cannot be held responsible for breaches of security outside its control.

Information provided by participants is stored on the secure Actyp.com website. The data is owned by Actyp and is to be used only and expressly for the purposes expressed in the introduction to each survey. Under no circumstances will data be sold outside the survey for which the data was collected. This commitment remains if Actyp ceases to exist or becomes no longer the controlling owner. If it becomes impractical to maintain these commitments the data will be removed and totally destroyed from all controlling electronic systems.
