DATA COVERAGE
The research was conducted in July and August 2014. The survey groups in Europe and the USA were chosen to be demographically representative of the broader online consumer population, and those in Africa, Asia and the Middle East were chosen to be representative of the mobile-Internet-using population. We set quotas on age, gender and employment status to that effect. There were a minimum of 1000 respondents per country, and 22 174 respondents.
