Resilient Youth Australia Data Policy

Confidentiality and use of data

Resilient Youth Australia is committed to ensuring the protection of individual rights to privacy and confidentiality, and that the information we collect benefits participants.

Data collection  

Our surveys are voluntary and anonymous. All collected data is non-identifiable and we do not collect any sensitive or personal information.

Data Use  

Survey responses are aggregated when reported to the client school or agency. Individual anonymity is protected by creating one universal login for all participants and by setting a minimum number of responses (9) required in order to report a result for any cohort. These measures ensure that responses can never be traced to an individual.

Aggregated non-identified data may be used by Resilient Youth Australia to generate Australian norms or by reputable research institutions for research purposes.

Storage  

All data is stored on secure AWS servers located in Sydney Australia.
