This data may include the device type, operating system, unique device identifiers, device settings, and geo-location data.

Email
In order to match you with the right surveys, we may collect additional information from you, including demographic information such as postal code, gender, marital status, education, employment-related information, and non-personally identifiable information on household members, household income, age, etc.

2. Legal Bases for Processing

We will process your personal information lawfully, fairly, and in a transparent manner. We collect and process information about you only where we have legal bases for doing so.

These legal bases depend on the services you use and how you use them, meaning we collect and use your information only where:

It’s necessary for the performance of a contract to which you are a party or to take steps at your request before entering into such a contract (for example, when we provide a service you request from us);
It satisfies a legitimate interest (which is not overridden by your data protection interests), such as for research and development, to market and promote our services, and to protect our legal rights and interests;
You give us consent to do so for a specific purpose (for example, you might consent to us sending you our newsletter); or
We need to process your data to comply with a legal obligation.

Where you consent to our use of information about you for a specific purpose, you have the right to change your mind at any time (but this will not affect any processing that has already taken place).

We don’t keep personal information for longer than is necessary. While we retain this information, we will protect it within commercially acceptable means to prevent loss and theft, as well as unauthorized access, disclosure, copying, use, or modification. That said, we advise that no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure and cannot guarantee absolute data security. If necessary, we may retain your personal information for our compliance with a legal obligation or in order to protect your vital interests or the vital interests of another natural person. Upon termination of your account, either by you or us, we reserve the right to delete or anonymize your personal data, in compliance with applicable legal requirements to ensure the protection and privacy of your information.

3. Collection and Use of Information

We may collect, hold, use, and disclose information for the following purposes and personal information will not be further processed in a manner that is incompatible with these purposes:

To match you with surveys based on your demographic information and the surveys targeting criteria;
To enable you to customize or personalize your experience of our website;
To enable you to access and use our website, associated applications, and associated social media platforms;

We will ensure that any transfer of personal information from countries in the European Economic Area (EEA) to countries outside the EEA will be protected by appropriate safeguards, for example by using standard data protection clauses approved by the European Commission, or the use of binding corporate rules or other legally accepted means.

Where we transfer personal information from a non-EEA country to another country, you acknowledge that third parties in other jurisdictions may not be subject to similar data protection laws to the ones in our jurisdiction. There are risks if any such third party engages in any act or practice that would contravene the data privacy laws in our jurisdiction and this might mean that you will not be able to seek redress under our jurisdiction’s privacy laws.
