Referrer data is lost when a HTTPS site links to a HTTP site.

If you implement a 301 rediect from your HTTP site to your HTTPS site do you get referrer data?

Referring Site | Your Site
HTTPS >>> HTTP >>> 301 >>> HTTPS

or do you have to make sure the source HTTPS site links directly to your HTTPS site?

Referring Site | Your Site
HTTPS >>> HTTPS

If you bounce at all to HTTP, even in a 301 case, you will lose the header. The 301 is handled by the browser (or other client) so the protocol transition will happen there.
