When conducting surveys, it’s sometimes necessary to collect sensitive online survey data. The new General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR) will enforce specific requirements for processing personal data of subjects residing in the EU, and it is essential to abide by the changes.

We regularly receive a range of support questions from both new and existing customers asking for survey advice. We are always happy to cover as much as we can but we thought it might be useful to highlight some of the most common questions we get asked.

We are thrilled to announce that we are a Digital Business of the Year National Finalist in the FSB Celebrating Small Business Awards, and we will be heading to London for the Grand Final in May.
