What happens to Surveys if there’s no movement after a year?

To protect user privacy and keep the system tidy, Salary Confidential automatically closes any Survey peer group that has seen no activity for 13 consecutive months.

“Activity” means user submissions here.
If none of those occur within 13 months, the Survey closes

This ensures that dormant data doesn’t linger indefinitely and that only active, relevant surveys remain in our system.
You don’t have to do anything — the process is automatic.

We want to stress that data collected over a long period (over a year) would be less than ideal to form a precise picture.

As always, this explainer is not a legal document. Our Terms of Service are the final word
