Information collected from interactive forms and surveys

SBA Lynx Payment provides interactive forms that let you voluntarily submit personal information (such as your email address, name, or organization). This occurs when you register to join an online community to submit information to web discussion forums, blogs, and other community features, register to receive email updates and newsletters, and send questions and comments to the SBA Lynx Payment team. In these cases, all submitted information is used only for the express purposes for which it is provided and is not made available to any third party.

SBA Lynx Payment may also use online survey instruments to obtain feedback on your experience with SBA Lynx Payment. The survey initiation pops up for a random sample of visitors, is voluntary and does not collect personal information. If you decline the survey, you will still have access to the same information and SBA Lynx Payment resources as those who do take the survey. The survey reports are available only to SBA Lynx Payment managers and other staff who require this information to perform their duties. SBA Lynx Payment retains the data from the survey results in accordance with its data retention policy.
