Safari browser survey

What is safari browser survey and did it get on my IPad?

I initially thought it was from apple so completed the survey but after putting in my email and postcode deleted immediately as I though it was odd as this is unus for apple.

i am now concerned it has infected my IPad and I risk personal and financial information.

how do I remove it?

iPad Pro Wi-Fi + Cellular, iOS 12.1

If this was a web site, it probably didn't infect your iPad unless you downloaded something. I would change my Apple ID password as a safety precaution. If you are still concerned there might be something on your iPad, restore it from a backup made prior to taking the survey.


Restoring from a backup erases all data currently on your device. A restore is an all or nothing restore.


Backup - Restore your device from an iCloud or iTunes backup
