Description:
When downloading a MySQL Product, if you are "logged in", then you are forced to fill out a survey.

If you are not "logged in", then you have the option to either "Login/Sign Up" or "No thanks, just start my download".

After filling out the survey once or twice, I assume most users would simply "log out" and then download, by-passing the survey (at least I do).

I propose adding the "No thanks, just start my download" options for users who are logged in as well.

It seems to me you could gather more information this way, since you could at least associate the download(s) with a specific user (along with all of the other details you have on said user).

Plus users would appreciate this.

Not to mention, how many duplicate surveys do you need?

Another idea is you could make that page "smart", and only prompt for the survey once from a particular user, or even once per year.  I think people would be happy to fill out the survey then, knowing that's all you would ask.

How to repeat:
N/A

Suggested fix:
N/A

Hopefully it falls on more open ears this time?

A survey of Americans' attitudes to the retail industry has revealed where they shop and what they think of retail stores. The HOMEDEPOT Survey 2023 surveys Americans' attitudes to the retail industry. The findings show that shopping habits have changed considerably since 2018, with some retailers winning and others losing ground. 
In the past few years, Amazon has become America's most used online retailer, taking over from Walmart as the country's number one online destination for people buying products online. The survey found that in 2018, almost three-quarters of Americans shopped on Amazon, while just over half visited Walmart online. This trend continued in 2019 and 2020: when asked where they had shopped this month, 54% said Amazon compared to 45% for Walmart."
The store team maintains a homedepot survey from https://www.homedepotcomsurveyss.com/ to know the Store Service and working conditions. As a result, management can understand customers' experience when they visit the Homedepot Store.
