MMRSS has developed this Privacy Policy Statement to address any questions
and/or concerns of respondents that have volunteered to participate in any form
of data collection conducted by MMRSS. This Privacy Policy Statement applies to
all respondents.
Our policy is designed to ensure that you never have to worry about your
personal information being shared sold or leaked to any third party under any
circumstances
Research Studies
Our marketing research studies collect data for research purposes only. The
information you provide is used for research analysis and we analyze the answers
in aggregate. Your cooperation is absolutely voluntary; you may withdraw from a
marketing research study at any time. No personal information will be sought
without prior consent. We may ask for contact information in the event we need
to verify or validate your answers. We also may ask you to provide demographical
information about you, your household or business.Information you provide in
response to or in connection with a survey, whether collected through this Web
site or through traditional market research tools, is and will be provided to
our client(s) and/or other entities and/or the public as part of cumulative
market research information or statistical data in the ordinary course but
without identifying you individually directly or indirectly.
Any information that you provide, whether it is to join our panel, participate
in a study, or to request information, is strictly used for market
research-related purposes. We are NOT a sales organization. The information you
provide is NOT shared with other organizations for commercial purposes. Any
contact information you provide us, (phone, e-mail, company name, address
information, etc.) will only be used to contact you regarding a valid market
research study or to respond to an inquiry about the services we provide.
- Our Privacy Policy means that we will not sell or give any panel or survey
information you provide us to a third party. Only those on the MMRSS Research
project team (i.e., analysts, project managers, web programmers, etc.) would
have access to the data. Additionally, all survey responses are aggregated and
analyzed on a group, not on an individual basis.
- We do not disclose the identity of survey participants to our clients. This
anonymity helps ensure that respondents, like you, answer survey questions
honestly and without concern of being contacted for sales calls or sales leads.
When confidentiality as to specify information has been promised to you
(normally at the beginning of the survey), the authority to give permission for
release of the information belongs to you, rather than to a proxy for you or to
the persons to whom you provided the information.
It is our responsibility of the Institute, to protect your anonymity and the
confidentiality of its research documents and data at each stage of the research
process: data collection,storage, processing, analysis, and dissemination.
We take this responsibility very seriously and will never release any personally
identifiable information pertaining to you unless we have received your express
written consent prior to doing so. We commit to do this without exception
All information that identifies an individual respondent -- such as your name,
address, telephone number, or other identifying information is placed in secured
files as soon as possible after data collection from the respondent is
completed. This data is subsequently destroyed (usually after four weeks)
Amendments to Policy
As we continue to expand services on our website, and as technology continues to
advance, our privacy policy may be updated. If our information practices change
at some time in the future, we will post the policy changes on our web site. If
you are interested, we suggest that you check our website periodically for
updates
