It is of course important that the collected information is in accordance with the privacy legislation. As such, it is crucial that you only ask for personal information that is necessary for your research and avoid collecting special personal data such as information about health, ethnic origin, political opinions etc. If you need take the participant's age into account, always ask for age rather than birthdate. Never ask for personal information that could be used to easily identify the participants, e.g. names or personal ID numbers (BSN).
