How We Protect Your Anonymity

We’re advocates for #paytransparency ❤️, but we know many people don’t want the world to know how much they’re being paid. That’s why we take great care in protecting the anonymity of every person who participates in the survey. Here’s how we do it:

  • The survey doesn’t ask for your name, email, or company name. Because we don’t ask for this information, you may receive emails from us asking you to participate in the survey even after you’ve done so. Thank you in advance for your understanding!
  • Research.net, which we use to conduct the survey, is configured to capture responses anonymously. We don’t even save your IP address with your response.
  • Survey responses are kept separate from all other Brightflag systems, and are only accessible to the authors (and are anonymous to them for the above reasons).
  • The report will only include aggregate information. Although the survey asks for your job title, this is used for analytical purposes only and will not appear in the report.

When the Results Will Be Published

The survey results will be published on March 20, 2025.

We’re hosting a webinar that same day to share and discuss the report’s findings. You’ll have the option to register for the webinar after completing the survey. If you do register for the webinar, we’ll email you the report automatically.

You can also register for the webinar without completing the survey by clicking here, or by returning to our website on or after the release date to download the report.
