Daisy Mae Research Ltd Privacy Policy

 

Effective Date: March 11, 2026

Daisy Mae Research Ltd, a company registered in Virginia, is committed to protecting the privacy and integrity of the personal data we collect. This Privacy Policy outlines our practices regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of information gathered from respondents who participate in our market research surveys, visit our website, or engage with us via mobile communication.

  1. Information Collection and Personal Data Categories

We collect and process personal data that allows us to identify and contact potential research participants. This information includes your full name, email address, and telephone number. In addition to contact details, we collect specific demographic information such as your age, gender, geographic location, and professional occupation. This data is gathered through Alchemer-powered surveys which are embedded directly on our website for your convenience and security.

  1. Purpose of Processing and Data Utilization

The primary purpose of collecting your information is to facilitate qualitative market research. We use your personal data to determine your eligibility for specific research studies based on the demographical requirements of our clients. By maintaining this information, we are able to invite you to participate in future projects that align with your profile. We do not use your data for any marketing or sales purposes, and we do not engage in the sale of personal information to third parties.

  1. SMS and Mobile Communication Policy

If you have consented to receive text messages from Daisy Mae Research Ltd, you may receive communications related to appointment reminders, meeting links, and follow-ups on specific research cases. We obtain verbal consent for these communications by inquiring, “Do you consent to receive external text message communications from Daisy Mae Research Ltd? To opt out, reply STOP; for support, reply HELP. Message and data rates may apply, and messaging frequency may vary.”

The phone numbers obtained specifically as part of the SMS consent process will not be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. Furthermore, this agreement for SMS participation is strictly between you and Daisy Mae Research Ltd and will not be shared with third parties for their own marketing use.

  1. SMS Frequency and Carrier Fees

Our SMS message frequency across all users typically ranges from 50 to 1,000 text messages daily. Please be aware that many mobile carriers charge fees for each message sent or received. These costs vary depending on your carrier’s pricing structure and whether the message is sent domestically or internationally. Daisy Mae Research Ltd is not responsible for any such message or data rates that may apply.

  1. SMS Opt-Out and Re-Enrollment

You may opt out of SMS messaging from Daisy Mae Research Ltd at any time by replying STOP to any received message. Once you have opted out, you will receive no further SMS communications from us unless you choose to re-enroll. You can opt back in at any time by replying START to our designated number. For further assistance, you may reply HELP or contact our support team directly.

  1. Data Infrastructure and Third-Party Processors

To maintain the security and efficiency of our operations, Daisy Mae Research Ltd utilizes a suite of professional third-party tools. Your respondent information is managed within the HubSpot CRM platform, while internal communications and data storage are handled via Microsoft 365 and Microsoft SharePoint. All survey responses are processed through Alchemer. While these platforms assist in our operations, Daisy Mae Research Ltd remains the primary controller of your data. Furthermore, our website utilizes cookies to enhance site functionality and monitor traffic patterns.

  1. Third-Party Sharing and Disclosures

We do not share your personal data with third parties unless it is strictly necessary for the market research purposes for which you have applied. Specifically, your information is only shared with our research clients when you have been selected to participate in a specific project. Outside of these project-specific requirements or mandatory legal disclosures required by state or federal law, your data remains confidential within our secure systems.

  1. Policies Regarding Children and Minors

Our market research activities are primarily intended for individuals aged 18 and older. We may occasionally conduct research involving participants as young as 16 years of age. However, in any instance where a project requires the participation of a minor under the age of 16, we strictly require verified parental or guardian consent before any data collection occurs. We are committed to complying with all relevant protections for younger respondents.

  1. Data Retention and Security Protocols

Daisy Mae Research Ltd retains your personal data only for as long as you are considered an active member of our research pool. In the event that a respondent remains inactive for a period of three years, we have established a protocol to securely delete their personal information from our databases. This ensures that we do not maintain unnecessary data while allowing us to fulfill our research obligations.

  1. User Rights under the Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act (VCDPA)

As a Virginia-registered entity, we recognize the rights afforded to consumers under the Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act and other applicable U.S. privacy laws. You have the right to request access to the personal data we hold about you and to request the correction of any inaccuracies. Furthermore, you may request the total deletion of your data from our HubSpot CRM and Microsoft environments at any time. You also maintain the right to opt-out of future research invitations by contacting us directly.

  1. Contact Information and Inquiries

If you have any questions regarding this Privacy Policy or if you wish to exercise your rights concerning your personal data, please contact our privacy team. All inquiries should be directed to Daisy Mae Research Ltd at info@daisymaeresearch.com.
