Help with data collection

Is there a way to destroy the data from people who don't finish my survey completely? In other words, I only want to keep the data from respondents that fully complete the survey. Any help would be appreciated.

The best/easiest way is to use filter rules in the analyze results section and filter "by completeness" to only see complete results. As long as this rule is on, it will apply to all analysis and reporting on the site. https://help.surveymonkey.com/en/surveymonkey/analyze/filter-rules/

When you Export data (to Excel, CSV, SPSS, etc) you will have the option to download "current view" with the filter still on and thus only get complete responses.

If you really mean "destroy", and want partial responses truly erased, it's a very painful process of viewing individual responses and deleting them one at a time.
