@Millard you should be aware that the data protection legislation in the U.K. ( that quoted in the post) contains a exemption for the police. U.K. police can complete the university to handle over all the data included any meta data ( such as up addressed ) for this survey.

Unlikely but in the interests of transparency and U.K. based surveys should carry a flag along the lines
“ we value your input however please be aware be aware that the U.K. police have an absolute right to access without hinderance all the information you supple including any meta data such as your IP address “

By “without hindrance” I mean a court order is not required

Thank you, TenPin. This is an interesting issue, and I will bring it to the attention of King's College Ethics Committee. We did not store participants' IP addresses. Besides, the use of anabolic steroids is allowed in the UK. Participants of this survey did not disclose any illegal activity.

Seriously bro....chill out
Answering basic questions about steroids and admitting buying/using them in the UK isn't gonna get you in any trouble.
