What we collect

We collect your answers to the survey. Some surveys ask about your health or treatment.

Our surveys are anonymous unless they say otherwise. We do not collect your IP address or location. Please do not include your name, anyone else’s name or anything else that could identify you in free-text answers.

If a survey asks for your name, email address or other contact details, it will say why, and giving them will be optional.

Why we collect it

Each survey explains at the start what it is for. We use the answers only for that purpose.

We may share or publish combined results, for example with health professionals, researchers or regulators. We will never share individual answers in a way that could identify you. Quotes from free-text answers may be used without any identifying details.

Our legal basis

We rely on your consent, which you give by agreeing at the start of the survey. Where a survey asks about your health, this is your explicit consent to us using that information. Taking part is voluntary and you can stop at any time by closing the survey.

How your answers are stored

Our surveys run on Tally, our survey provider, which stores the answers on our behalf. Tally is based in Belgium and stores all form data in Europe, encrypted both in transit and at rest. Only the Newson Media Limited team analysing a survey can see individual answers. Anyone else sees only combined results.

Your browser may keep your answers while you are filling in a survey, so that you do not lose them if you leave the page. It may also keep a note that you have completed the survey, to stop duplicate answers. Nothing in your browser identifies you to us.

How long we keep it

We keep survey answers for six months after a survey closes and then delete them, unless the survey says otherwise.

If a survey is for adults only and you say you are under 18, the survey ends and we delete that answer.

Your rights

If a survey is anonymous, we cannot tell which answers are yours, so we cannot find, change or delete them once you have submitted them.

If you gave us your contact details, you can ask to see the information we hold about you, or ask us to correct or delete it. Email us at surveys@drlouisenewson.co.uk.

If you are unhappy with how we have handled your data, you can complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office at ico.org.uk.
