Frequently Asked Questions

Is it really free? What’s the catch?

Yes, it’s completely free and there is no catch. Debra Corey has the knowledge, and we have the software – this is our way of helping others during this crisis.

What is the length of the free license period?

We set the free license at three (3) months from the date in which you register your account. If the health crisis requires a longer period of time, Starred will communicate this well before the expiry date.

What happens after the three months?

Nothing! If you don’t do anything to renew your account, it will automatically expire, and Starred will delete your data.

What if we wish to continue using our Starred account?

If you wish to use the service further, contact Starred and ask for a Starred license that will suit your needs well before the expiration.

Who can see the results?

Besides you, your account lets you invite up to four (4) other individuals as users. You can manage their user rights. That makes it five users in total.

Is the survey flexible?

The survey is specifically made for this health crisis and is standardized to offer you benchmark data from other companies that use it too. If you need other types of surveys please contact Starred for an offer of a Starred license that will suit your needs.

How many invitations for feedback can we send?

The free account is capped at 1,000 invites. If you need more, please contact a Starred representative and ask for a Starred license that suits your needs.

In which languages is the survey available?

Currently, the survey is available in English and Dutch. If you need it in a language that is currently not available, please let us know – we might be able to offer it on short notice.

What does the survey measure?

The survey measures the likelihood with which your employees would recommend you as a place to work, giving you your Employee Net Promoter Score. You can read more about NPS in this blogpost. The follow-up questions will be around the themes of communication and trust, as well as leadership and recognition. In addition, there will be more general questions addressing expectations, flexibility, and autonomy. The questionnaire has been created by Debra Corey.

Will the results be anonymous?

Yes, we believe that anonymity is the best way to get the most honest feedback. You want more than just get the overall picture, so we recommend you add some extra properties to the employees when you upload the file. For example, you could consider including which department they work for, the name of their manager, and their location. Properties are tags that you can use to filter your results. In order to guarantee anonymity, we show you results when there are at least seven (7) responses that meet the filter criteria.

Is my data safe?

Your data are super safe, and securely encrypted and hosted on AWS. To verify for yourself, you can check Starred’s security measures on starred.com/security.

Who is the owner of the data?

You are and will be the owner of the data. This is clearly stated in our T&Cs (Art 8.3). There is also a Data Processing Agreement (DPA) to clearly distinguish between the responsibilities you have as being responsible for the data, and the responsibilities that Starred has as the processor of the data. You can find the T&Cs and DPA here: starred.com/terms-and-conditions.
