Introduction

The Faith Survey website (faithsurvey.co.uk)* is a website run by a single individual for non-business purposes to enable users to complete surveys. For those surveys which require an email address, the results of the completed survey will be emailed to the user.

The website is commited to ensuring that your privacy is protected. Your personal information will not be sold, distributed or leased to third parties. Any information you provide by way of completing a survey will be held in a secure database, protected behind a firewall. Such information is only viewable by the webmaster and may be used to generate reports, none of which will contain any information that may personally identify you. From time to time, these reports will be updated and may be viewed on the results section of the website. The information gathered will be retained for as long as is required to generate report data.

In addition, each survey (and all other pages on this website) use the SSL protocol to ensure that any data you input is encrypted as it passes over the internet. SSL secured pages may be identified by a padlock icon (or equivalent) in the address bar and prefixed with https:// as shown below:
