Survey data submitted by Customer Respondents is generally controlled and managed by the Client User that created or launched that survey. We may process that data on behalf of those Client Users.

Customer Respondents who visit the Site solely to respond to a survey will not be contacted except to administer the Service. However, if Customer Respondents fill out forms on other pages of the Site, for example, gated videos, whitepapers, etc, then UserEvidence may contact and respond to requests as with a normal visitor to the Site.

For example, we store the Personal Information you provide on computer servers with limited access that are located in controlled facilities. However, you use the Service at your own risk. We implement commercially reasonable technical, administrative, and organizational measures to protect Personal Information both online and offline from loss, misuse, and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. However, no Internet or e-mail transmission is ever fully secure or error free. In particular, e-mail sent to or from us may not be secure.
