Global Government Forum Research: Privacy Policy
All surveys carried out are published and managed by Global Government Forum, part of Pendragon International Media Ltd. Please be aware that we take your concerns about privacy seriously and we make every reasonable effort to respect it.
Computerised Research and your privacy
We are committed to protecting your personal information and respecting your privacy. Personal information is defined as any details that will enable you to be identified, such as ID numbers, telephone numbers, address, email address etc.
When designing and executing our research, it is our policy to take all necessary steps to ensure that personal information you provide is processed fairly and lawfully.
Only authorised staff have access to personal information and they are obliged to respect its confidentiality.
It is our policy to monitor our internal procedures regularly to ensure compliance with the relevant statutory requirements in all that we do, including the Data Protection Act 1998, and our Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy which can be found here.
What we do with the information that we gather from survey responses
In obtaining your cooperation to participate in the survey, we undertake not to mislead you in any way about the nature of the research we are conducting, the way in which the data is collected and the use that will be made of the survey results.
All of the information that you provide will be treated as confidential and will only be used for research purposes. Your comments will not be identified as belonging to you, instead they will be combined with those gathered from other survey participants, and will be analysed as part of a group. We do not use any of the survey response information you provide for direct marketing or other non-research activities.
If we ask you for personal information that enables you to be identified – e.g. your name, ID numbers, e-mail address or telephone number, we will clearly state why we are asking for it and for your permission to use it for that purpose. For example, it might be to inform the winner of a prize draw or us or our research partner to contact you for follow-up research.
Your participation is voluntary. You are entitled to ask that part, or all, of the record of your involvement in the survey be deleted or destroyed.
