I don't want to pour water on your project, but there are some things missing from this.It bothers me some that you haven't got a consent form, or any information on how data will be used/anonymised and stuff like the aims of your project. It's really important when you're gathering data to take into consideration ethical things like data protection and that your contributers are giving informed consent about what their information is being used for.This would apply even in the case of a college research paper.

The web form didn't trigger any of my usual cookie alerts so I did wonder what data Google was skimming when I visited the page.
The form said at the top that your email would not be recorded, so the data was anonymous. I remember checking for that first thing when I took it. And there weren't any particularly identifying questions in the survey to be concerned about in this case.
