This is under discussion on Meta Wiki, and I made some changes this morning. Please be sure any significant comments are put on-wiki, where Meta admins and community are more likely to see them. https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Meta:Requests_for_help_from_a_sysop_or_burea...

Hi Itzik,
We placed that note as it is standard practice to let users know when a link will be taking them outside the Wikimedia projects. We linked to the Qualtrics privacy statement, as we felt that users should have access to that if they wanted to read it.
Petefosyth has made some changes to it, based on this discussion [1]. It now reads "Survey data handled by a third party".
Best,

My first guess would be that the company is mentioned as a way to
notify
users that they will be sending data to an outside company if they
click
on
the link (but the text you quote is not that clear on the privacy
aspect
here).

"We invite you to participate in a survey about online harassment on Wikimedia projects. *Survey powered by Qualtrics"*
It's not the the first survey runs through the Qualtrics, but that's
the
first time I see credit to them. We most of the time, even in GLAM
and
others partnerships trying to avoid as much as we can mentions organizations names, as it can be consider to be advertising.
But mention a company (that we even paid them), and linking to their website? that's new and concern a bit. I'll be happy if someone
related
to
this decision can give more information about the idea behind it.
Thank you.
