Dear participant,

Thank you for your interest in this study. It is being conducted as part of a bachelor's thesis examining the relationship between sustainability communication by fashion brands, consumer trust, and purchase intention.

Please answer the following questions as completely and honestly as possible. There are no right or wrong answers. Only your personal perception matters.

The survey takes approximately 5 to 7 minutes to complete. Participation is entirely voluntary. All responses are collected anonymously. No personally identifiable information is collected, and your responses cannot be traced back to you individually. Your anonymized responses will be used exclusively for the purposes of this academic thesis.

You may stop the survey at any time simply by closing this window. Answers from surveys that are not completed will not be included in the final analysis. Because your responses are collected anonymously, it is not possible to identify or separately withdraw your data once you have submitted the completed survey.

Please note that during the survey, once you proceed to the next question, you will not be able to return to a previous one, so please take your time when answering.

By clicking "I agree," you confirm that:

- you are at least 18 years old,
- you have read and understood this information,
- you are participating voluntarily,
- you consent to the anonymous processing of your data for scientific research purposes within the context of this bachelor's thesis, and
- you have been informed that you can stop your participation at any time without giving a reason, before submitting the completed survey.

If you do not agree to participate or to the processing of your data, please select "I do not agree." The survey will then end.

Thank you very much for your support.
