LimeSurvey allows users to quickly create intuitive, powerful online forms and surveys that can work for anyone from small business to large business. The survey software is self-guiding for the respondents. They have a cloud hosted option with free and paid tiers, much the same as SurveyMonkey, but there is also the Community Edition which is fully free and open source software which you can self-host. Apart from the freedoms that brings, it also means that any respondent data is also free from tracking and data mining by any 3rd parties.
In this video I tour through a sample survey that I created, where I run through the survey options, I also show how easily a new survey with questions can be started, and I end off with a run through the various general menu configuration options.

Agree, self-hosting is the only manner, if you own a server. This app is a German product, which generally have better privacy, but on the other hand also very restrictive condition of the use (this app shows the whole text of the legislation regarding the use of apps of this type, quite broad) Because of this, its anyway recommended to read the TOS and PP of this app, and you’ll see, that they make very clear, that they have the full copyright of this “FOSS”.
As I recall the trademark part only related to the name and logo of LimeSurvey itself. They said you could still use the code, change it, etc as you wanted?
Correct, the code is GPL, everything else is FUD.
