Are Surveymonkey.com's Surveys really anonymous and confidential?

Someone has asked my to take a "confidential" survey. I'm wondering if the can track it back to an IP in Survey Monkey's system to figure out who filled out the survey.

IPs are not synonymous with users. That is, the most someone could tell is your ISP.





Conceivably, is the survey was to 3 people, one of whom was on Comcast, and that was you, then perhaps yes you could be identified.





But quality surveys are performed on large lists of randomly selected people, and quality researchers don't want to be able to ID you, they just want truthful and honest answers to the questions in the survey.





If you trust the survey sponsor or the inviter, then you can be pretty confident that no one will be tracking you. If you don't know the inviter and are over-paranoid, then feel free to skip the survey.





Again, a quality researcher doesn't care who you are. Don't give any identifiers such as Social Security numbers, driver license numbers, bank accts, PINs or other type of info on ANY survey. Real researcher don't need them, only scammers.





Your IP address reveals little about you. Unless you think the survey is to a small audience, its probably save to take it.
Reply:DON'T! they can tell you they own the moon and it doesn't mean a thing..... all they want is a live person at an address so they can sell this info to marketing....unless you like spam, pop-ups, and on, and on
