Privacy Policy

This policy explains how SurveyWorth handles information in connection with this website. It does not cover a survey provider, software vendor, or another website you visit through a link. Our privacy contact is provided on the Contact page.

Browsing and searching

You can read public pages without creating an account. SurveyWorth does not collect your survey answers, operate a participant account, or receive your account password or reward balance from a listed platform.

Search terms, filter choices, and selected comparison platforms appear in page URLs. These URLs may remain in your browser history and may be included in server requests or shared links. Do not enter sensitive personal information into search fields.

To deliver a page, the website and its infrastructure process technical request information, such as an IP address, the requested URL, and browser-supplied headers. Operational or security logs may retain some of that information. The hosting and log-retention details shown with this policy describe the configured deployment; a page request should not be assumed to be anonymous simply because the site has no analytics script.

Cookies, analytics, and advertising

SurveyWorth currently has no visitor analytics tags, advertising pixels, newsletter signup, public comments, or public registration form. Public browsing does not require a SurveyWorth account cookie. We do not sell visitor information or use it for cross-context behavioral advertising.

An essential cookie named "surveychecked_session" is used for administrator sign-in. It contains a random session token, is unavailable to browser JavaScript, and expires after up to 12 hours. The database stores a hash of that token.

When you dismiss our cookie notice, we store the acknowledgement time in your browser's local storage. We remember it for 180 days and remove expired records on your next visit. This preference is used only to avoid repeating the notice and is not sent to our server. You can reopen the notice using "Cookie information" in the footer or reset it by clearing this website's stored data in your browser. Dismissing the notice does not enable analytics or advertising.

Administration and security

Administrator accounts contain an email address and a salted password hash. Passwords are not stored as plain text. Login rate limiting stores a hash of the submitted email address, an attempt count, and a time window. Hashing does not make these records anonymous.

Session validity ends at expiry or sign-out. Expired session rows are cleaned up on a successful administrator login; signing out deletes the matching session. Login-attempt records are reset for a new rate-limit window and removed after a successful login for that account. These events do not amount to a fixed deletion schedule for all security records or backups.

Access to administration and stored research is restricted. Reasonable safeguards reduce risk, but no internet service or storage system can guarantee complete security.

Messages and privacy requests

If you email a contact address listed on this website, the mailbox receives your address, message, attachments, and delivery information. We use that information to answer the enquiry, assess corrections or rights requests, and keep a record where necessary for follow-up, security, or legal obligations. Do not send sensitive information that is unnecessary for the request.

The contact service and retention information displayed on this site apply when that channel is configured. Public pages do not submit contact messages into the SurveyWorth application database.

Links and affiliate services

Following an official, reference, or affiliate link takes you to another service. That service may collect technical information, use cookies, and process information under its own policy. You should read its policy before registering or submitting survey responses.

An affiliate network, when used for a clearly identified link, may record the click and a qualifying action to attribute a commission. The current affiliate-service status is stated in our Affiliate Disclosure. We do not load an affiliate tracking service merely because you read a platform profile. New tracking technologies require an updated notice and any controls required for their actual use.

Retention, service providers, and your choices

We limit access and retention to what is needed for the stated purpose, administration, resolving a request, or applicable obligations. Hosting, email, log storage, and backup retention depend on the services configured for the website. Available deployment-specific service information appears alongside this notice; contact us with questions about retention.

Depending on your location and the applicable law, you may have rights to request access, correction, deletion, restriction, or other information about the use of your personal information. Use the privacy contact on the Contact page. We assess requests under the rules that apply, may verify identity where necessary, and do not promise a right or exception that is not applicable to your situation.

You can control cookies through your browser. Blocking the administrator session cookie prevents administrator sign-in; reading public pages does not require that cookie. External sites have their own controls.

Children and changes

This website is not directed to children under 13 and does not offer child accounts or intentionally solicit personal information from children. A platform's own age restrictions may be higher and should always be checked before registration. Contact us if you believe a child has sent us personal information.

We update this notice when the website's practices change. The date at the top of the page identifies its latest update.
