Civey for Spiegel Online

Civey is a Berlin-based start-up that conducts online surveys for opinion and market research. The surveys are spread across websites like Spiegel.de, T-Online.de or Focus.de and every visitor can take part in the survey. Additional data such as age, gender, postal code, income and marital status are also requested, and the survey results are weighted differently on the basis of these criteria. Surveys are regularly published on behalf of Spiegel Online for federal elections as well as state elections. There are repeated legal disputes between Civey and Forsa, for example around the methodology of the surveys or advertising claims.
