Thank you for taking the time to participate in my research study, conducted by myself, Leila Rinck, a student at VHL, as part of my graduation thesis. The purpose of this study is to analyze the professional transition and labor market position of graduates from the Equine Sports and Business (ESB) program. This survey will take approximately 5-7 minutes to complete, and your participation in this study is strictly voluntary. You have the right to withdraw at any time during the survey without providing a reason and without any negative consequences. By continuing, you agree that any data provided up to the point of withdrawal may be used in an anonymized format for the final analysis. If you wish for your partial data to be fully deleted, please contact the researcher at leila.rinck@hvhl.nl.
In accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), all data collected will be processed pseudonymously. Your personal identity will not be linked to your individual responses in the final thesis or any subsequent reports. The raw data will be stored on a secure, password-protected server and will only be accessible to the primary researcher (myself) and the supervising faculty. Anonymized data will be retained for a period of 2 years for academic verification purposes, after which it will be permanently destroyed.
