Reach Parent Surveys privacy notice

How we use your information

The University of Dundee (‘the University’) collects and processes your information further to you completing a Reach Parent Survey. The information you provide will be used to evaluate the provision and impact of Reach events and the Reach project. We have designed the surveys so that your responses should be anonymous. However, if you choose to provide personal data in response to any of our questions, you should understand that we will hold and process that information in the dataset we generate from all the survey responses.

We do not seek to identify anyone with a survey. We will endeavour to ensure that when we analyse and publish data we do not identify any individual.

We will retain the raw data from the survey responses until the 31st March of the following year in which the data was collected, when it will be deleted. We will retain our anonymous analysis and reporting.

You are under no obligation to complete a survey.

Any disclosure of personal data is at your own discretion. You should restrict your answers to the matter at hand and avoid disclosing the personal data of others.

Special categories of personal data
