2023 update: We have added a column where you can see the IP addresses of the participants if you decide to collect them.
        
Downloaded file - IP addresses
                                                         




















If you notice incomplete/missing survey data on your downloaded response file,, it means that our system has auto-submitted it because the survey exceeded the allotted time window or if it was "Finished", meaning submitted by the participants.
