Data handling and management:
Data type: The survey does not ask for personal data. However, an IP-address will be collected automatically. Only the main investigator will have access to the raw data. The main investigator will delete the IP-addresses of the respondents after the initial export so there is no link to the respondents in further analysis. Neither the sub- nor the co-investigators will have access to the raw data.
Data management: The digital data will be stored on a protected server of the Thomas More University of Applied Sciences. Only the main investigator will have access to the personal (raw) data during and after the study.
The data will be stored for 7 years after the study on a protected server of the Thomas More University of Applied Sciences.
