Data Protection Statement
1. As an online publisher of surveys, we, Getfeedback are committed to protecting your privacy and maintaining the security of any personal information received from you. We follow strict security procedures in the storage and disclosure of information, which you may have given us, to prevent unauthorised access in accordance with stringent requirements of the data protection legislation in the UK and other European Countries. The purpose of this statement is to explain to you what personal information we collect and how we may use it.
2.If you are completing an employee engagement survey: Getfeedback’s code of confidentiality ensures that no reference to the origin of individual responses will be made in reports. This code of confidentiality also applies to free form (verbatim) comments. Your individual responses will not be made available to anyone within your company. The questions in the "Demographics" section are asked so that we can compile results for different groups within the company.
Reports showing responses to “scale-based questions (Strongly agree to Strongly Disagree) only breakdown to groups of 10 or more and reports showing free form (verbatim) responses only breakdown to groups of 50 or more. So if you are, for example, the only female based in location within a function then your responses will be grouped with other employees to give an overall result, grouped with other females to give a result by sex, grouped with others in the function to give result by function and grouped with others based in the location to give a result by location but your responses will never be reported as a standalone response.
3.If you are completing an online psychometric assessment, we process personal data relating to either your application with a potential employer, or an internal assessment with your current employer. We do not sell, rent or exchange your personal information with any other third party for commercial reasons. If you are applying for a vacancy with a potential employer, then, by submitting this information, you grant us the right to share this information with your potential employer and your recruitment agent. If you are undertaking an internal assessment with your current employer, then, by submitting this information you grant us the right to share this information with your current employer.
4.In connection with our research, your personal data may be aggregated into a demographic database for the purposes of analysing trends, monitoring equal opportunities and creating geographic norms. Before we aggregate your data, we will delete your name and other contact information to make sure the database can never relate to an individual.
