What kind of survey? Surveys we've had in the past have been based on selling the information indirectly through universities or directly to business or enterprises we'd prefer not to have any such information. Glad you asked first rather than have your survey dumped, "etc." And oh yes, I am well aware universities are sponsored by businesses (& government agencies) to find out information, else someone via the university seeks out buyers of the information. This forum is quite "uncommercial" to say the least so we are very very wary of any such schemes & hidden agendas.
It might be best if you send me a PM (personal message) detailing all you wish to find out including how you wish to conduct the survey & what questions you will ask & what you intend to do with that information.
