Survey Protection

For use with the Anonymous survey link. Does not limit access.

Limits access to only those who have received a unique link through the Survey Mailer.

• If you turn on By Invitation Only when you are using the anonymous survey link it will not let the respondents take the survey!

Allows you to set a single password for your survey.

• If you need a unique password for each survey taker, use the Authenticator option in the Survey Flow.

Uses a browser based cookie to mark if someone took the survey once. If they attempt to take the survey again from the same browser on the same computer, they will not be able to take the survey again.

Allows you to specify a URL users must come from to access the survey. This is useful if your survey link is posted on a particular website, like an internal university or company page, and you want to make sure the link does not get copied and sent to others. Only those who can access that page would be able to take the survey.

Keeps search engines, such as Google, from indexing your survey and presenting it in search results. Typically, this is only needed by people with long-term studies where the survey is active for a long time.

Specify the exact date and time combinations when respondents can start and stop accessing the survey (YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM). 12:00am is the default time if no time is specified. Note that the system will show you the time zone you are working in and set the date and time based on your time zone (adjust under Account Settings). Those trying to access the survey before or after the specified range receive a simple message explaining it is currently unavailable.
