Our approach

MyPrivacyPolls is a revolutionary survey creation and response app that provides the highest standards of privacy and confidentiality. At the core of PrivacyPolls is a commitment to user anonymity. Respondents can complete surveys knowing that their identities are completely detached from their answers, ensuring that personal data is never at risk of exposure—even to the hosts of the platform. This is achieved through cutting-edge technology that allows for the collection of valuable data without linking it to specific individuals.

MyPrivacyPolls also introduces advanced features to prevent re-identification from survey responses. Our unique tools allow survey creators to implement privacy guarantees, safeguarding against the disclosure of identity. This makes MyPrivacyPolls an ideal solution for companies seeking to obtain industry insights without compromising the anonymity of participating entities. It is equally effective in academic and small-scale environments, where maintaining participant confidentiality is paramount.

Whether you're gathering sensitive sector data or conducting campus-wide polls, MyPrivacyPolls provides a secure, private, and reliable platform for all your survey needs, empowering users to share honest feedback without fear of privacy breaches.

An account is required to create a survey, but participants who take a survey do not necessarily need an account. Surveys can also be made accessible using password protections and dedicated link addresses where the links can be publicly available or require invitation or an account.

MyPrivacyPolls stands out due to its advanced privacy protections, which surpass those offered by traditional survey tools like Google Forms. However, if simpler, more transparent surveys are needed, users can choose to opt out of these enhanced privacy and security features.

Our work on MyPrivacyPolls is inspired by the pioneering work of data privacy expert Latanya Sweeney and sponsored by the Public Interest Tech Lab at Harvard.
