Won't my answers to the demographic questions give me away/reveal who I am?

The demographic information is pulled out of the survey and presented separately on one single page of the Engagement Survey Report. Demographic information is not tied to individual questionnaire responses. It is also presented in a general heat chart format in the Demographic Snapshot.

Won't my answers to the open-ended questions give me away/reveal who I am?

Responses to open-ended questions are removed from the surveys and sorted alphabetically by first letter of the response and compiled into a separate overall report.
