Your data may be transferred outside Korea. We protect such transfers through Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) or equivalent safeguards with each processor. By using the Service, you consent to such international transfers.

11. Survey Response Data

Service users can create surveys and collect responses. In that case the user who created the survey is the data controller for those responses, and the Company acts as a processor that stores and processes the data on the user’s behalf. Survey respondents should contact the survey creator first to exercise their rights (access, correction, deletion, etc.).

  • Anonymous surveys: When the creator enables the anonymous option, respondent identity (e.g. email) is not stored with responses.
  • Sensitive questions: Answers to questions marked sensitive are masked in results and exports, visible only to authorized users.
  • Consent: Surveys with sensitive questions, or where consent is required, ask respondents to consent before they begin.
  • AI analysis: Open-ended survey answers may be sent to and processed by an AI provider (e.g. Google Gemini) when the user runs AI analysis.
  • Responsibility: The survey creator is responsible for lawful collection, use, and consent for the information they gather, and must comply with applicable law (e.g. PIPA) when collecting sensitive or unique-identifier data. Survey creators may also need to provide respondents with a separate privacy notice or collection-and-use consent.
