What is the purpose of the study?
This study is being conducted by the Countryside and Community Research Institute (CCRI) at the University of Gloucestershire, on behalf of the Welsh Government.
The aim of the study is to better understand the value of recreational sea bass angling in Wales, including its economic, social, and cultural importance. In particular, the survey will collect information about participation in sea bass angling, associated expenditure, and the benefits anglers gain from taking part. The findings will help inform future fisheries management and policy development in Wales.
Why have I been invited and what will participation involve?
You have been invited because of your experience of recreational sea bass angling. You must be over the age of 18 years (including 18 years old) to take part in the research.
Participation involves completing an online questionnaire, which should take approximately 15 minutes to complete. The survey includes questions about:
- Your participation in recreational sea bass angling in Wales
- Spending associated with your angling activities
- The benefits and values you derive from taking part in fishing
- Your views and experiences as a sea bass angler
As a thank you for taking part, respondents who complete the survey will have the opportunity to enter a prize draw to win £100 in vouchers for an angling store of their choice. Entry into the prize draw is optional and will be administered separately from survey responses to maintain anonymity.
Do I have to take part and can I withdraw?
No. Participation is entirely voluntary. You are free to:
- Decide not to take part
- Skip questions you do not wish to answer (please note: a small number of questions are mandatory for the purposes of study eligibility and directing respondents to the correct questions)
- Exit the survey at any time before submission
If you decide to withdraw your survey responses after submission, you may do so by contacting Dr Adam Fisher (afisher9@glos.ac.uk) within 30 days of submitting your responses.
After this point, survey responses may have been anonymised and incorporated into the analysis, and it may no longer be possible to identify and remove your individual responses.
How will my data be used and processed?
We will not collect or retain any personal data beyond what is necessary to carry out this research. Personal data (such as contact details provided for the prize draw) will be used solely for the purposes of administering the prize draw and will not be linked to your survey responses.
All information provided will be treated confidentially. The questions offer little opportunity for the identification of individuals; we generally do not ask for information that could be used to identify individuals. None-the-less, survey responses will be reviewed and anonymised during analysis so that individual participants cannot be identified.
The anonymised data will be analysed and used to produce aggregated findings. These findings will be reported as part of a study commissioned by the Welsh Government and may also be shared with relevant public stakeholders, such as the Angling Trust and other organisations with an interest in recreational fisheries and fisheries management. Findings may also be included in publicly available reports and academic outputs, such as peer-reviewed journal articles.
No individuals will be identifiable in any reports, publications, presentations, or other outputs resulting from this research.
Upon project completion (2027), the data will be given to Welsh Government ONLY; you will not be identifiable in that data.
How will my data be stored and for how long?
All data will be handled in accordance with UK GDPR and University of Gloucestershire data protection policies. Alongside the description of how we will treat your data given in this participant information statement, during the research phase, we also conform the University of Gloucestershire’s research participants privacy notice, which can be accessed by clicking here. University of Gloucestershire data protection policies can be accessed by clicking here. Key data handling storage protocols are shown below.
- Data will be stored securely on University of Gloucestershire OneDrive and on password-protected computers (where possible stored in locked facilities)
- Access to data will be restricted to the research team
- Survey responses will be stored separately from any contact information collected for the prize draw.
- Contact details collected for the prize draw will be deleted once the prize draw has been completed.
- Personal data will be securely stored in accordance with University GDPR policies and procedures.
- Anonymised research data may be retained for up to 5 years for research, reporting and audit purposes.
As previously mentioned, the data collection is being commissioned by Welsh Government, therefore it is also subject to their privacy statement, which can be accessed by clicking here. We ask that you read both statement prior to completing the research.
Are there any risks?
There are no significant risks anticipated from taking part in this study. The survey focuses on your experiences and participation in recreational sea bass angling and is not expected to involve sensitive or distressing topics. You are free to skip any questions that you do not wish to answer and may stop completing the survey at any time before submitting your responses.
What are the benefits?
There are no direct benefits to participants. However, your input will contribute to improving understanding of the economic, social and cultural value of recreational sea bass angling and help inform future fisheries management and policy in Wales.
Participants who complete the survey will also have the opportunity to enter a prize draw to win £100 in vouchers for an angling store of their choice.
Respondents can select to complete the survey in English or Welsh via an option at the top the introductory page.
Who has reviewed this research for ethical clearance?
The survey has been approved by the University of Gloucestershire Research Ethics Committee and steps have been taken to ensure the survey fully complies with the necessary personal data management procedures in place at the University (more info: https://www.glos.ac.uk/research/research-ethics).

Teitl y prosiect: Asesu gwerth cymdeithasol, economaidd a diwylliannol pysgota hamdden am ddraenog y môr yng Nghymru.
Beth yw pwrpas yr astudiaeth?
Cynhelir yr astudiaeth hon gan y Countryside and Community Research Institute (CCRI) ym Mhrifysgol Swydd Gaerloyw, ar ran Llywodraeth Cymru.
Nod yr astudiaeth yw deall yn well werth pysgota hamdden am ddraenog y môr yng Nghymru, gan gynnwys ei bwysigrwydd economaidd, cymdeithasol a diwylliannol. Yn benodol, bydd yr arolwg yn casglu gwybodaeth am gymryd rhan mewn pysgota am ddraenog y môr, y gwariant cysylltiedig, a’r manteision y mae pysgotwyr yn eu cael o gymryd rhan. Bydd y canfyddiadau yn helpu i lywio rheolaeth pysgodfeydd a datblygu polisi yn y dyfodol yng Nghymru.
Pam y cefais wahoddiad, a beth fydd cymryd rhan yn ei olygu?
Rydych wedi cael gwahoddiad oherwydd eich profiad o bysgota draenog y môr hamdden. Rhaid i chi fod dros 18 oed (gan gynnwys 18 oed) i gymryd rhan yn yr ymchwil.
Mae cymryd rhan yn cynnwys cwblhau holiadur ar-lein, a ddylai gymryd tua 15 munud i’w gwblhau. Mae’r arolwg yn cynnwys cwestiynau am:
- Eich cyfranogiad mewn pysgota hamdden am ddraenog y môr yng Nghymru
- Gwariant sy’n gysylltiedig â’ch gweithgareddau pysgota a’ch ymweliadau â Chymru
- Y manteision a’r gwerthoedd rydych chi’n eu cael o gymryd rhan mewn pysgota
- Eich barn a’ch profiadau fel pysgotwr sy’n pysgota am ddraenog y môr
Fel arwydd o ddiolch am gymryd rhan, bydd ymatebwyr sy’n cwblhau’r arolwg yn cael cyfle i gymryd rhan mewn raffl i ennill talebau gwerth £100 ar gyfer siop bysgota o’u dewis. Mae cyfanswm o bum taleb gwerth £100 ar gael i’w hennill. Mae cymryd rhan yn y raffl yn ddewisol, a bydd y broses yn cael ei rheoli ar wahân i ymatebion yr arolwg er mwyn sicrhau anhysbysrwydd.
Oes rhaid i mi gymryd rhan, ac a alla i dynnu’n ôl?
Na. Mae cymryd rhan yn gwbl wirfoddol. Rydych chi’n rhydd i:
- Penderfynu peidio â chymryd rhan
- Hepgor cwestiynau nad ydych am eu hateb (nodwch: mae nifer bach o gwestiynau yn orfodol er mwyn pennu a ydych yn gymwys ar gyfer yr astudiaeth, ac i gyfeirio ymatebwyr at y cwestiynau cywir)
- Gadael yr arolwg ar unrhyw adeg cyn ei gyflwyno
Os penderfynwch dynnu eich ymatebion i’r arolwg yn ôl ar ôl eu cyflwyno, gallwch wneud hynny drwy gysylltu â Dr Adam Fisher (afisher9@glos.ac.uk) o fewn 30 diwrnod i gyflwyno eich ymatebion.
Ar ôl y pwynt hwn, efallai bod ymatebion i’r arolwg wedi’u hanonymeiddio a’u cynnwys yn y dadansoddiad, ac efallai na fydd yn bosibl mwyach nodi a dileu eich ymatebion unigol.
Sut y caiff fy nata ei ddefnyddio a’i brosesu?
Ni fyddwn yn casglu na chadw unrhyw ddata personol y tu hwnt i’r hyn sy’n angenrheidiol i gynnal yr ymchwil hwn. Defnyddir data personol (megis manylion cyswllt a ddarperir ar gyfer y raffl gwobrau) at ddibenion gweinyddu’r raffl yn unig ac ni fydd yn gysylltiedig â’ch ymatebion i’r arolwg.
Bydd yr holl wybodaeth a ddarperir yn cael ei thrin yn gyfrinachol. Ychydig iawn o gyfle sydd yn y cwestiynau i adnabod unigolion; yn gyffredinol nid ydym yn gofyn am wybodaeth y gellid ei defnyddio i adnabod unigolion. Serch hynny, bydd ymatebion yr arolwg yn cael eu hadolygu a’u hanonymeiddio yn ystod y dadansoddiad fel na ellir adnabod cyfranogwyr unigol.
Bydd y data wedi’i anonymeiddio yn cael ei ddadansoddi a’i ddefnyddio i gynhyrchu canfyddiadau cyfanredol. Bydd y canfyddiadau hyn yn cael eu hadrodd fel rhan o astudiaeth a gomisiynwyd gan Lywodraeth Cymru a gellir eu rhannu hefyd â rhanddeiliaid cyhoeddus perthnasol, fel yr Ymddiriedolaeth Bysgota a sefydliadau eraill sydd â diddordeb mewn pysgodfeydd hamdden a rheoli pysgodfeydd. Gellir cynnwys canfyddiadau hefyd mewn adroddiadau sydd ar gael yn gyhoeddus ac allbynnau academaidd, fel erthyglau cyfnodolion a adolygwyd gan gymheiriaid.
Ni fydd unrhyw unigolion yn adnabyddadwy mewn unrhyw adroddiadau, cyhoeddiadau, cyflwyniadau, nac allbynnau eraill sy’n deillio o’r ymchwil hwn.
Ar ôl cwblhau’r prosiect (2027), rhoddir y data i Lywodraeth Cymru YN UNIG; ni fydd modd eich adnabod yn y data hwnnw.
Sut y caiff fy nata ei storio, a pha mor hir?
Bydd yr holl ddata yn cael ei drin yn unol â GDPR y DU a pholisïau diogelu data Prifysgol Swydd Gaerloyw. Yn ogystal â’r disgrifiad o sut y byddwn yn trin eich data – a ddarperir yn y datganiad gwybodaeth i gyfranogwyr hwn – rydym hefyd yn cydymffurfio â hysbysiad preifatrwydd Prifysgol Swydd Gaerloyw ar gyfer cyfranogwyr ymchwil yn ystod y cyfnod ymchwil; gallwch gael mynediad ato drwy glicio yma. Gellir gweld polisïau diogelu data Prifysgol Swydd Gaerloyw drwy glicio yma. Nodir y prif brotocolau ar gyfer trin a storio data isod.
- Bydd data yn cael ei storio’n ddiogel ar OneDrive Prifysgol Swydd Gaerloyw ac ar gyfrifiaduron wedi’u diogelu gan gyfrinair (lle bo’n bosibl wedi’u storio mewn cyfleusterau dan glo)
- Bydd mynediad i ddata yn gyfyngedig i’r tîm ymchwil
- Bydd ymatebion yr arolwg yn cael eu storio ar wahân i unrhyw wybodaeth gyswllt a gesglir ar gyfer y raffl gwobrau.
- Bydd manylion cyswllt a gesglir ar gyfer y raffl gwobrau yn cael eu dileu unwaith y bydd y raffl gwobrau wedi’i chwblhau.
- Bydd data personol yn cael ei storio’n ddiogel yn unol â pholisïau a gweithdrefnau GDPR y Brifysgol.
- Gellir cadw data ymchwil dienw am hyd at 5 mlynedd at ddibenion ymchwil, adrodd ac archwilio.
Fel y crybwyllwyd eisoes, mae’r broses o gasglu data yn cael ei chomisiynu gan Lywodraeth Cymru; felly, mae hefyd yn ddarostyngedig i’w datganiad preifatrwydd, y gellir ei gyrchu drwy glicio yma. Gofynnwn i chi ddarllen y ddau ddatganiad cyn cwblhau’r gwaith ymchwil.
A oes unrhyw risgiau?
Ni ragwelir unrhyw risgiau sylweddol o gymryd rhan yn yr astudiaeth hon. Mae’r arolwg yn canolbwyntio ar eich profiadau a’ch cyfranogiad mewn pysgota draenog y môr hamdden, ac ni ddisgwylir iddo ymdrin â phynciau sensitif neu destunau a allai achosi trallod. Mae croeso i chi hepgor unrhyw gwestiynau nad ydych am eu hateb, a gallwch roi’r gorau i lenwi’r arolwg ar unrhyw adeg cyn cyflwyno eich ymatebion.
Beth yw’r buddion?
Nid oes unrhyw fuddion uniongyrchol i’r cyfranogwyr. Fodd bynnag, bydd eich cyfraniad yn helpu i wella dealltwriaeth o werth economaidd, cymdeithasol a diwylliannol pysgota draenog y môr hamdden, ac yn helpu i lywio rheolaeth a pholisi pysgodfeydd yn y dyfodol yng Nghymru.
Bydd cyfranogwyr sy’n cwblhau’r arolwg yn cael cyfle i gymryd rhan mewn raffl i ennill £100 mewn talebau ar gyfer siop bysgota o’u dewis.
Gall ymatebwyr ddewis cwblhau’r arolwg yn Gymraeg neu yn Saesneg drwy ddewis yr opsiwn ar frig y dudalen gyflwyno.
Pwy sydd wedi adolygu’r ymchwil hwn ar gyfer cymeradwyaeth foesegol?
Mae’r arolwg wedi’i gymeradwyo gan Bwyllgor Moeseg Ymchwil Prifysgol Swydd Gaerloyw ac mae camau wedi’u cymryd i sicrhau bod yr arolwg yn cydymffurfio’n llawn â’r gweithdrefnau rheoli data personol angenrheidiol sydd ar waith yn y Brifysgol (mwy o wybodaeth: https://www.glos.ac.uk/research/research-ethics).

Gwerth economaidd, cymdeithasol a diwylliannol pysgota am ddraenogiaid môr at ddibenion hamdden yng Nghymru: Arolwg a grwpiau ffocws dilynol
Mae Llywodraeth Cymru wedi comisiynu’r Sefydliad Ymchwil Cefn Gwlad a Chymuned (CCRI) ym Mhrifysgol Swydd Gaerloyw i gynnal ymchwil economaidd-gymdeithasol i bysgota am ddraenogiaid môr at ddibenion hamdden yng Nghymru. Nod yr ymchwil hon yw deall gwerth economaidd, cymdeithasol a diwylliannol pysgota am ddraenogiaid môr at ddibenion hamdden yng Nghymru, a darparu tystiolaeth i lywio datblygu polisi pysgodfeydd.
Yn rhan o’r ymchwil hon, bydd y CCRI yn casglu gwybodaeth drwy arolwg ar-lein ar gyfer pysgotwyr hamdden, ac mae’n bosibl hefyd y cynhelir trafodaethau dilynol drwy grwpiau ffocws.
Llywodraeth Cymru yw’r rheolydd data ar gyfer y gwaith ymchwil. Fodd bynnag, bydd y CCRI yn dileu unrhyw ddata personol a roddir yn ystod yr arolwg a’r grwpiau ffocws, ac yn dileu enwau o’r data craidd cyn iddo gael ei rannu â Llywodraeth Cymru.
Bydd yr wybodaeth a gesglir yn ystod y prosiect yn cael ei chynnwys mewn adroddiad a fydd yn cael ei chyhoeddi ar wefan Llywodraeth Cymru ac o bosibl mewn cyhoeddiadau eraill gan CCRI a Llywodraeth Cymru.
Mae cymryd rhan yn yr ymchwil hon yn gwbl wirfoddol. Er hynny, mae eich barn a’ch profiadau’n bwysig inni er mwyn helpu i lywio polisïau Llywodraeth Cymru.
Y cyswllt ar gyfer yr ymchwil hon yn CCRI yw Dr. Adam Fisher

HYSBYSIAD PREIFATRWYDD
Pa ddata personol rydyn ni’n ei gadw ac o ble rydyn ni’n cael yr wybodaeth honno?
Yn ôl Rheoliad Cyffredinol y DU ar Ddiogelu Data (GDPR y DU) data personol yw unrhyw wybodaeth sy’n ymwneud â pherson y gellir ei defnyddio i adnabod y person hwnnw, yn uniongyrchol neu’n anuniongyrchol, drwy gyfeirio at ffactor adnabod.
Byddwch wedi cael yr arolwg drwy un o’r ffyrdd isod:
- Mae Llywodraeth Cymru wedi rhoi eich manylion cyswllt (enw, cyfeiriad e-bost, rhif ffôn a chyfeiriad) i CCRI ac maen nhw wedi cysylltu â chi i’ch gwahodd i gwblhau’r arolwg. Mae Llywodraeth Cymru yn cadw eich manylion oherwydd:
- rydych wedi cymryd rhan o’r blaen mewn ymchwil ar bysgota môr hamdden, arolygon, cynlluniau dyddiadur neu weithgareddau casglu data eraill. Mae eich manylion cyswllt yn cael eu cadw gan Lywodraeth Cymru neu maen nhw wedi cael eu rhoi i Lywodraeth Cymru gan Ganolfan Gwyddorau’r Amgylchedd, Pysgodfeydd a Dyframaethu (CEFAS) neu sefydliadau sy’n gweithredu ar ei rhan at ddibenion ymchwil. Nododd yr wybodaeth breifatrwydd a roddwyd pan gasglwyd eich manylion y gellir eu defnyddio at ddibenion ymchwil ac ystadegau; neu
- rydych wedi mynegi diddordeb o’r blaen mewn cyfrannu at ymchwil ar bysgota môr hamdden neu bysgodfeydd, gan gynnwys drwy Grŵp Cynghori Cymru ar Ddraenogiaid Môr neu weithgareddau ymgysylltu â rhanddeiliaid pysgodfeydd eraill.
neu
- Nid yw’ch manylion cyswllt gan CCRI. Rydych wedi cael y ddolen arolwg gan glwb pysgota, cymdeithas, sefydliad cynrychioliadol neu gorff arall yr ydych yn gysylltiedig ag ef, neu drwy newyddlenni, gwefannau neu sianeli cyfryngau cymdeithasol Llywodraeth Cymru. Dim ond ymchwilwyr CCRI sy’n gweithio ar y prosiect hwn a gaiff weld yr ymatebion, nid y sefydliad a rannodd ddolen yr arolwg.
neu
- Rydych wedi rhoi eich manylion cyswllt (enw, cyfeiriad e-bost a rhif ffôn) i CCRI yn ystod yr ymchwil hon, fel y gellir cysylltu â chi i gwblhau’r arolwg yn ddiweddarach, neu i gymryd rhan mewn unrhyw weithgareddau ymchwil dilynol yr ydych wedi cytuno arnyn nhw.
Os nad ydych yn dymuno cymryd rhan na derbyn nodiadau atgoffa pellach, ymatebwch i’r e-bost gwahodd hwn a gofyn inni ddileu eich manylion cyswllt.
Mae’n bosibl y gofynnir ichi ddarparu manylion cyswllt at ddibenion penodol, megis cymryd rhan yn y raffl, cysylltu â chi eto mewn perthynas â’r ymchwil, neu gymryd rhan mewn gweithgareddau ymchwil dilynol. Pan ofynnir am fanylion cyswllt, bydd hyn yn cael ei wneud yn glir ar y pwynt casglu.
Bydd unrhyw fanylion cyswllt a gesglir at y dibenion hyn yn cael eu cadw ar wahân i’ch ymatebion arolwg, a dim ond at y diben y cawson nhw eu casglu y byddan nhw’n cael eu defnyddio.
Os byddwch yn dewis cynnwys gwybodaeth bersonol mewn ymateb i’r arolwg testun rhydd, byddwn yn cymryd camau rhesymol i sicrhau nad yw unigolion yn cael eu hadnabod o’r wybodaeth a roddir ac na fyddwn yn ceisio cysylltu eich enw â’ch ymatebion i’r arolwg.
Nid oes angen casglu data personol arall ar gyfer yr ymchwil hon heblaw eich delwedd os ydych yn cytuno i grŵp ffocws gael ei recordio ar fideo.
Mae’n bosibl y bydd angen inni recordio trafodaethau grwpiau ffocws at ddibenion gweithredol. Os byddwn yn gwneud hynny, byddwn yn dweud wrthoch chi cyn i’r grŵp ffocws ddechrau, a byddwch yn cael cyfle i ddweud wrthon ni os na fyddwch yn fodlon i’r drafodaeth gael ei recordio. Ni fydd cyfarfod grŵp ffocws yn cael ei recordio oni bai bod holl aelodau’r grŵp yn fodlon. Os bydd grwpiau ffocws yn cael eu recordio, bydd data personol yn cael ei ddileu yn ystod y broses o drawsgrifio – mae hyn yn cynnwys recordiadau llais, recordiadau gweledol, a chyfraniadau y gellir eu cysylltu ag unigolyn. Bydd recordiadau’n cael eu dileu cyn gynted ag y daw’r broses i ben. Os na fydd trafodaethau’n cael eu recordio, ni chynhwysir data personol yn y nodiadau ysgrifenedig a baratoir yn ystod neu ar ôl cyfarfod y grŵp ffocws.
Os byddwch yn gofyn cwestiwn neu’n cwyno, ac yn rhoi data personol er mwyn ichi allu cael ymateb, dim ond at y swyddog perthnasol y bydd yr ymchwilydd yn anfon y cais hwnnw, ac yna bydd yn ei ddileu o ddata’r ymchwil.
Beth yw’r sail gyfreithlon dros ddefnyddio eich data?
Y sail gyfreithlon dros brosesu gwybodaeth yn yr ymarfer casglu data hwn yw cyflawni ein tasg gyhoeddus; hynny yw, arfer ein hawdurdod swyddogol i ymgymryd â rôl a swyddogaethau craidd Llywodraeth Cymru.
Mae cymryd rhan yn gwbl wirfoddol. Mae astudiaethau ymchwil fel hon yn bwysig er mwyn i Lywodraeth Cymru gasglu gwybodaeth a thystiolaeth y gellir gweithredu arni ynghylch ei gallu i gyflawni ei blaenoriaethau. Gellid defnyddio’r wybodaeth a gesglir yn yr ymchwil hon, er enghraifft, i lywio a gwerthuso polisi pysgodfeydd.
Pa mor ddiogel yw’ch data personol?
Mae’r wybodaeth bersonol a roddir i CCRI yn cael ei storio ar weinydd diogel bob amser. Dim ond nifer cyfyngedig o ymchwilwyr sy’n gweithio ar y prosiect hwn fydd yn cael gweld y data. Dim ond at ddibenion yr ymchwil y bydd CCRI yn defnyddio’r data. Mae gan CCRI ardystiad Cyber Essentials.
Wrth gynnal arolygon, mae CCRI yn defnyddio rhaglen feddalwedd arolygon o’r enw Qualtrics. Rydyn ni wedi sicrhau bod Qualtrics yn cydymffurfio â GDPR y DU ac yn bodloni ein disgwyliadau o ran diogelwch unrhyw ddata a gesglir drwy’r feddalwedd.
Mae gan CCRI weithdrefnau ar waith i fynd i’r afael ag achosion os bydd amheuaeth bod rheolau diogelu data wedi cael eu torri. Os amheuir bod rheol wedi cael ei thorri, bydd CCRI yn hysbysu Llywodraeth Cymru, a fydd yn rhoi gwybod i chi ac i unrhyw reoleiddiwr perthnasol pan fydd hynny’n ofynnol o dan y gyfraith.
Bydd CCRI yn defnyddio’r wybodaeth a gesglir i gynhyrchu adroddiad a fydd yn cael ei gyhoeddi ar wefan Llywodraeth Cymru. Ni fydd yr adroddiad hwnnw’n cynnwys unrhyw wybodaeth y gellid ei defnyddio i adnabod cyfranogwyr unigol.
Am faint rydyn ni’n cadw eich data personol?
Bydd CCRIyn cadw data personol yn ystod cyfnod y contract, a bydd unrhyw ddata personol nad yw eisoes wedi cael ei ddileu wrth drawsgrifio’n cael ei ddileu gan CCRI erbyn tri mis i ddiwedd y contract fan bellaf. Mae hynny’n cynnwys eich manylion cyswllt.
Bydd CCRI yn rhoi fersiwn ddienw o’r data i Lywodraeth Cymru, sef fersiwn o’r data na fydd yn cynnwys unrhyw wybodaeth y gellid ei ddefnyddio i’ch adnabod.

Debrief Information Sheet: Angler Survey
Project title: Economic, social and cultural value of recreational sea bass angling in Wales.
Thank you for taking part in this research. This study is being carried out by the Countryside and Community Research Institute (CCRI) at the University of Gloucestershire, on behalf of the Welsh Government, to better understand the social, cultural, and economic value of recreational sea bass angling in Wales.
Your survey responses will be anonymised during analysis and any information that could identify you will be removed. If you chose to enter the prize draw, your contact details will be stored separately from your survey responses. Personal data (such as contact details provided for the prize draw) will be used solely for the purposes of administering the prize draw and will not be linked to your survey responses.
All information provided will be treated confidentially. The questions offered little opportunity for the identification of individuals; we generally did not ask for information that could be used to identify individuals. None-the-less, survey responses will be reviewed and anonymised during analysis so that individual participants cannot be identified.
The anonymised data will be analysed and used to produce aggregated findings. These findings will be reported as part of a study commissioned by the Welsh Government and may also be shared with relevant public stakeholders, such as the Angling Trust and other organisations with an interest in recreational fisheries and fisheries management. Findings may also be included in publicly available reports and academic outputs, such as peer-reviewed journal articles.
No individuals will be identifiable in any reports, publications, presentations, or other outputs resulting from this research.
Upon project completion (2027), the data will be given to Welsh Government ONLY; you will not be identifiable in that data.
If you would like to withdraw your survey responses from the study, please contact the lead researcher, Dr Adam Fisher (afisher9@glos.ac.uk), within 30 days of submitting the survey. After this period, survey responses may have been anonymised and incorporated into the analysis, meaning it may no longer be possible to identify and remove your individual data.
All data will be stored securely on University of Gloucestershire systems and handled in accordance with UK GDPR and University data protection policies.
