Heathrow Project - Consent Form


Project: Heathrow – Customer Journey Mapping
Project Number: ELJ000145


Thank you for your participation in our research project today.


This research project is conducted by Emotional Logic (www.emotional-logic.co.uk). We asked you to help with our research today because we are working for an organisation that needs to understand its customers to better meet its needs and wishes. In order to do this, we select a representative cross-section of the public, so as to get the views of people in different age groups, occupations, etc. Market research is an activity that can benefit customers as well as organisations and we have to give a high-quality service to keep the confidence of the businesses that use us. Our interviewers are trained to high professional and ethical standards and carry MRS Identification Cards.

DATA PROTECTION STATEMENT


In order to facilitate your participation in the research project you will need to share your personal data (such as name, telephone number, email) as well as video and audio recordings of the sessions with Emotional Logic. Emotional Logic takes privacy of your data seriously and has put measures in place to ensure your data is kept secure.


The views and opinions you will share with us will be stored anonymously, separately from your personal details under an ID number. The video/audio recordings we have taken of today’s session will also be stored anonymously, separately from your personal data. This means that even where you share information with us of a more sensitive nature (such as health data or political views), such information will be held separate to identifying information. This provides an added level of security to our systems to prevent unauthorised access to your personal data. Sometimes, we might share video/audio recordings involving your image and opinions with our clients but this will always be done in a way so that details identifying you (such as your name, address or other information) will not be shared when releasing such video/audio recordings to our clients.

Where we collect sensitive information about you in this research project, the following
categories of personal data indicated below may be collected:

 - Race/ethnicity
 - Gender
 - Health data (Disability)


We will only use this data for the purposes of this research project and we will only keep it for as long as is necessary for the purposes for which we are using it in accordance with our Data Retention Policy.

Your personal data will only be used for the specific purpose you supplied it for and will be deleted once that process is complete. Your data will be stored and processed by Emotional Logic Ltd, a market research agency based in Newcastle upon Tyne, England, based in the UK in line with its privacy notice: www.emotional-logic.co.uk/surveyprivacy

The research project is conducted on behalf of The Heathrow Airport and we will be sharing the results of our research study with them. With regard to the information that we will share with The Heathrow Airport:

The research project/study groups which you participate in will be filmed and audio recorded and you agree that video and audio recordings may be used, in the current or edited form, by Emotional Logic and/or our client and its third-party suppliers following completion of this research project.
You further understand that Emotional Logic and/or its client may use your image, video or audio recordings in reports, presentations, conferences, for internal analysis
Emotional Logic uses artificial intelligence tools in the processing of the research data (for example to analyse your survey answers) but we remove your personal data (such as name or email) before such processing takes place. Please see our privacy notice for further details about this.

 

SCREEN ACTIVTY MONITORING

As part of this research project, we may ask you to install secure screen activity monitoring software on your device for a limited period of time. This software records high-level information about how your device is used, such as the apps you open, how you search for information, the websites you visit (at a domain or page title level), the time spent using them, and the order in which they are accessed. This information helps us understand natural digital behaviour, as people may not always accurately remember which apps or websites they have used. The software does not record keystrokes, passwords, message content, emails, private communications, photos, audio, video, or banking or payment information. All screen activity data is collected with your explicit consent, is linked only to a participant ID number, is used solely for research purposes, and is handled in accordance with Emotional Logic’s Privacy Notice and data protection obligations.

I confirm that I have read and understood the Data Protection Statement and
Emotional Logic’s Privacy Notice have had the opportunity to consider the
information and ask questions which have been answered satisfactorily.
