HarGroup Management Consultants pledges to:
- Strictly preserve and guard research respondents’ confidentiality and anonymity. Respondents' rights to confidentiality and anonymity will be respected at all times.
- Ensure that all information gathered from respondents will be used for research purposes only. No personal information will be used or sold to other parties for subsequent non-research purposes, such as direct marketing, list-building, fundraising or other marketing activities, under any circumstances.
- Not conduct research projects as a disguise for selling or developing sales leads. Client products or services will not be given to respondents to develop sales leads.
- Ensure that respondents' co-operation in research projects is entirely voluntary at all stages.
- Not mislead respondents when asking for cooperation and participation in a research project.
- Take steps to ensure the security of all research records in their possession.
- Not deliberately influence the opinions of respondents being interviewed in research projects.
As with all forms of opinion research, your co-operation is voluntary at all times. You are entitled at any stage of an interview, or subsequently, to ask that part or all of the record of your interview be destroyed or deleted. Wherever reasonable and practical we will carry out such a request.
