Details
The UK Business Data Survey is a telephone and online-based study of UK businesses. It seeks to understand the role and importance of personal and non-personal data in UK businesses, domestic and international transfers of data, and the awareness of, and attitudes toward, data protection legislation and policy.
This is the second time this survey has been carried out. Ipsos MORI has been commissioned to carry out the survey fieldwork which takes place from November 2021 to January 2022.
During this period some organisations will be called by an Ipsos MORI interviewer from their Edinburgh office (an 0131 number) inviting them to take part. You may also receive an email to let you know Ipsos MORI has called and inviting you to reply. You may be offered the option of completing the survey online and, if so, you will receive the survey link via email from Ipsos MORI - [email protected]
