This Privacy Policy outlines the types of information collected by the Online Habits Research Survey, operated by the department of Computer Science at the University of Washington, and explains how this information is used, shared, and protected. Our survey aims to understand online habits for academic research purposes.
Types of Data Collected:
Data collected through the Online Habits Research Survey is used exclusively for academic research purposes. We analyze the data to identify patterns and trends in online habits. Personal data is not used for any commercial purposes.
We are committed to maintaining the anonymity of our survey participants. No personally identifiable information is intentionally collected, and all responses are analyzed in aggregate. We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to ensure the security of the data collected.
Data collected through the survey is not shared with or sold to third parties. Aggregate findings from the research may be published in academic journals or presented at conferences, but these findings will not include any information that can personally identify participants.
The survey platform may use cookies to ensure the functionality of the survey and to improve the user experience. Participants can choose to disable cookies through their browser settings, though this may affect their ability to participate in the survey.
Our survey does not address anyone under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 18. If we become aware that we have collected personal data from children without verification of parental consent, we take steps to remove that information.
We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify participants of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on our website. We encourage participants to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes.
