Hi,

I'd really like it if there were some posted guidelines for people wanting to conduct or link to their "surveys" on Mobileread. Not the just-for-fun internal polls, of course, but others.

These should include, in my opinion, disclosure who the person posting the survey is, their commercial/academic affiliations, the exact purpose of the survey (market research? a school project? other?), whether responses will be anonymous, what personal information will be obtained (for example, some surveys grab IP addresses of respondents), how the information obtained will be handled and stored, and contact details for the person conducting the survey.
