Saving Data

You can stop the form at any time and save your work up to that point.

The “Save-and-Resume” function (available at the top or bottom of this questionnaire) will allow you to save progress, and return to that exact spot in the questionnaire at another time.
When you choose to “Save-and-Resume”, you will need to submit your email address and a password.
Thereafter, you will receive a link to access the incomplete questionnaire in the future. If you do not see the email in your inbox, please check your spam folder.
This link can be accessed at any time by anyone with the correct credentials, and will save your work up to the exact spot where the questionnaire was saved when the link was sent.
When you get back to the questionnaire through the proper credentials, you will be dropped at the beginning of the questionnaire. Please note that as you advance through the questionnaire to get back to where you left off, your updated data will be in each question you already responded to.
Once you have responded to questions beyond the exact spot where you left off, you will need to start the "Save-and-Resume" process over to do it again. You can go through the “Save-and-Resume” process as many times as needed.
