This is the 12th wave of a large-scale consumer tracking survey covering the behaviours and attitudes for the use of online digital content.

This continues work originally commissioned by Ofcom and sponsored by the Intellectual Property Office (IPO) in 2012. The study is conducted annually to ensure that the IPO can monitor the impact of new online platforms on infringement behaviours.

The IPO has commissioned a short-form version of the Online Copyright Infringement Tracker Survey, including translations into Arabic, Chinese, French, Russian and Spanish alongside the English version. This has been done to aid replication of this methodology. These are available upon request by emailing research@ipo.gov.uk.

Wave 12 was delivered by AudienceNet on behalf of the IPO.

A PDF copy of the report are available on request by emailing research@ipo.gov.uk.
