Hi,
I’ve created a quiz and my last question captures the email address of the person completing it.
However, in line with GDPR I cannot find an ‘opt-in’ consent checkbox to include on this question - where can I find this please?
Thanks in advance.

Welcome to our little space on the internet,
Thanks for your reply
If so, how do I do that?
Hi
Is there a way to capture consent for all the customers that complete our quiz?
How we are using Typeform.. Customers complete a short quiz on their dog, then using calculations we recommended the best recipe that's tailored to their dog. Once customers have completed the quiz they are sent to a product page that uses dynamic content based on the customers responses.
If the customer doesn't check out straight away, we want to send them email reminders (similar to abandoned basket emails)
Is this possible? As we would need this to be GDPR compliant here in the UK.
thank you :)
Hey
I moved your question here because I believe the response above can help you too :) Let us know if you have further questions!
Hey
Just a thought - human psychology - if you ask users this as a question, I am afraid most are just going to say No instinctively. It takes a little more effort to consider and answer.
there are different rationales for each scenario, but they essentially both come down to the following:
it’s all about “how you interact” with the client and establishing a polite protocol that plays within the rules/guidelines of the ‘game’ as established by the policy regulators.

Hi
Unfortunately it is a law in many jurisdictions that you must ask consent, and if you want to receive their email in return for something that has value to the recipient, then they will usually provide it. If they choose not to provide an email address, then that is their informed choice.
It is a decision that the creator of the typeform needs to make, in terms of the purpose of the form and with their target audience in mind.
you are correct that many people are skeptical of providing email address in return for something but this is all part of the relationship, the meaning interaction, that you want to drive with your clientele.

Hi,
I will have a question that collects email addresses. There will be a link for the Privacy Policy. I would like to put a tick box in front of it for "I have read the privacy policy". Ideally i would like to collect the email and have this tick box on the same page/ question slide.
Is this possible?

Hi Liz!
Love your life quote! xD … but it made me hungry :P
Thanks for this! I think that could work. Do you have a Typeform template that uses this, so i could copy that? If yes, what is its name?
Maybe it would be worth mentioning to the development team that a tick box on the same page with email field would be more elegant.
Thnaks a lot!

I think that would be a great idea but there are some of us countries like Canada that, while we are faced with GDPR, we have a bunch of other regulations that are NOT GDPR that we would have to deal with: a single checkbox for GDPR would not fly
i think the legal question is the appropriate way to do that that covers everyone - it does make us all go to a separate page for the email but does make the explicit optin valid ..

so according to e.g. laws in Canada, it is not legal to have the Privacy Policy link and “I have read” checkbox on the same page with email collecting field? (it is self evident that a double opt in email goes out later on, that once again contains a link to the Privacy Policy) and a button to confirm consent and email address.

I see, and follwoing up on that line of thought... What would be best: to have a link to the PP on this separate page or to actually write out there the whole PP? (I am now not sure if Typeform has a limit to how much text can be input on one page)
along with a url to a pdf the user could download and print if they want …

Thanks a lot John. I think adding a slide with very long text is making people more worried than calm and it also takes away from the smooth Typeform experience, which is very unique. I am collecting emails during a quiz (competition) where i feel people would be very unlikely to enjoy a good PP read, even if i serve it to them very conveniently (and to their own benefit). It could be worth keeping this use case and impediment due to human behaviour in mind. Maybe Typeform comes up with a new and legaly very sound alternative in the future.
Thaking this suggestion is completely up to you.
Just learning about this now, as I’m making my first quiz. I don’t have a privacy policy, and as far as I can tell I’d need to pay for one with bells as whistles for GDPR, etc.
What would be a good template to use?
Would something like a legal question with:
Please tick this box to confirm that in return for the insights provided in this quiz, you are happy to be contacted via email by {company} regarding your answers. The data we collect from you is for internal market research only. We will never spam. Your data will be held in accordance with the Data Protection Act 2018 and not shared with any 3rd parties.
Hi
We cannot provide any legal advice or blanket statements, as what you need to do to be compliant may vary depending on how you use the information collected on your typeform, the tools you use (apart from Typeform), the contracts you have in place with other tools, if you have a privacy policy, among other considerations. We definitely recommend you to contact a lawyer specialised in GDPR, as they will be able to give you legal advice tailored to your specific circumstances.
Thanks Liz.
So you wouldn’t advice using typeform to collect any names or emails without first contacting a lawyer for advice?
Hi
Hi Liz,
I think I understand. If the information is anonymous, so I’m not collecting emails or names, then it’s fine. But if I use typeform to collect names, or emails then I need to get legal advice from a lawyer first.
