Информация и съгласие

Please, read the following data management and protection policy and provide your explicit consent before moving to the survey content:

Thank you for choosing to spend 15 minutes of your time to participate in this study, which is undertaken in the framework of the Games4Seniors project and in the interest of people ages 55+.

The purpose of the study is to identify the challenges you face in terms of everyday cognitive skills and related training/learning opportunities and methods.

Participation is voluntary, your responses are confidential and will only be used for the purposes of the study. Your name is not required, and the completed questionnaire will be anonymous. If you would like to receive the results of this research by email, please give us your email address and we will get back to you after all the data will be collected and analysed (pre-estimated at early July 2019).

For your participation in this study you will be asked to give some data and information, which will be processed in accordance with the general Data Management and Protection Policy you can find here. Please, pay particular attention to your rights in relation with your personal data. Acting in the framework of our general policy, we provide the following specific information with regards to the collection and processing of data for the present study:

As a rule, we need your responses to the questions to make general conclusions about the situation in different countries with regards to the studied subjects and we do not have any interest in collecting data that will enable identification of an individual whatsoever. Therefore, no matter how you will provide your responses, i.e., filling-in printed versions of the questionnaire and handing it to project consultants offline or filling-in the dedicated online survey, we will take all measures to aggregate the data and achieve the highest degree of pseudonymization, before any analysis is performed on the data for extracting conclusions.  

However, at the beginning of the data collection process, there are cases where the data you provide may give grounds for identification. For instance, you may provide your email address to receive the results of the study or have the chance of any different follow up with the team undertaking the study. If you fill-in the online version of the questionnaire, the system will record the IP address (internet protocol address) of the device through which you do the work. If you fill-in the offline version of the questionnaire and hand it over to a project consultant, that person may be able to identify you. 

Please, note: the above-mentioned data will be kept ONLY during the data collection process, which will stop by end of July 2019. After that, all data that link your responses to your identity, will be deleted and the questionnaire content will undergo a fully anonymized processing. In other words, no human or the system collecting data, will be able to identify the individual that provided the responses. Your email or other contact details will be kept longer only if you give your explicit consent. The pseudonymized data will be kept for a period of 5 years for the needs of the project, ending at end of December 2023.
