Polls with Data Processing Addendum (GDPR)

Polls with Data Processing Addendum (GDPR)

As a team of developers who want to provide you with a perfect voting tool, we are probably more effective at developing new features than at writing complex legal texts. So, despite frequent requests, it took a little longer.

But now it's time: we can offer you an data processing addendum based on the GDPR for voting and surveys according to data protection regulations.

Whether with or without a contract - at PollUnit your data is safe. We are not an evil data leech; we do not pass on personal data for enrichment. Only with our ISO 27001 certified server providers and payment and error analysis service we share the minimum data necessary to provide a stable service. We finance ourselves 100% through non-personalized advertising and our paid plans. You can find more information in our privacy policy and in the Data Processing Addendum in your account settings.

PollUnit is a tool for consultation and collaboration. The contents and contact information of your PollUnit can therefore be shared among the participants who have access to your PollUnit. Which information is made accessible can be determined by the creator (i.e. our contractual partner) himself in the settings of the respective PollUnit. What kind of data you collect or which contents and information you share with your team or participants is your responsibility. You can also deposit your own imprint and inform your participants about the nature and purpose of the PollUnit and thus conduct a legally compliant online poll.

In order to conclude the data processing addendum, you need a PollUnit Business account. Once you have registered, you will find the addendum at »My Account«, as well as an online form with which you can conclude the addendum.

Did you already know? You can also create Peer-to-Peer encrypted PollUnits.

Polls with Data Processing ...

Analysis of options and votes

After several PollUnit users contacted us last week with their wishes for a better poll evaluation, we now have some simple updates for you.

Two new views make it easier for you to evaluate options as well as individual votes in your poll.

In the view Evaluate Options you can search and filter for options, the creator or subtitle of the option. You can also sort the options by name, or by date. This function is especially useful for votings with many options and will be especially interesting with the deployment of our next Roadmap Item (Collect ideas). You can also export the data as CSV or Excel for further processing or archiving.

With the view Evaluate Votes you can search, filter and sort the individual votes of your participants. You can quickly find the newest or updated votes of your participants, the votes of certain users or compare votes on special options with each other.

Missing important data? We are always open for wishes and improvements. Write us your wish in the PollUnit Support Forum or by e-mail to support@pollunit.com.

Change participation and voter limits during runtime

Change participation and voter limits during runtime

In March of this year we made it possible for you to restrict participation and votes to a uniq value per option. Today we have a small update for you.

The limitations of the allowed participations / available seats can be changed now also during the running time of your poll or scheduling.

Or to be more precise, they can also be adjusted if users have already registered for options. As long as you don't set the value of the allowed participations lower than the already entered participations, you can adjust the limits arbitrarily.

If you are in the Edit dialog of your PollUnit, you can adjust the values in the list of limits and see in the right column the minimum limit that can be specified.

White Label polls

Now available: White label polls and surveys for your customers that look like they were created with your own online voting tool.

With the PollUnit White Label function you can hide the PollUnit footer and PollUnit functions - also in your Embedded PollUnits on your own homepage. In combination with your own logo your polls will gain more confidence and achieve higher response rates.

With ready-to-use and own design templates (themes) you can customize your votes individually and thus put your brand further in the foreground.

If you are interested in this topic, you should also take a look at our custom voting URLs.

Simplify your poll links with a custom PollUnit URL

With a custom PollUnit URL, you can shorten your URL or generate a branded URL that associates your vote with your brand name or product. You can also create URLs that are easier for your participants to remember and type.

Custom URLs increase respondents' trust and the participation rates of your surveys. In combination with your own logo and design, the overall experience of your participants will be significantly improved.

If you create a PollUnit with our Poll Creator, you can now choose your own URL in the »Advanced« step.

Share your polls with QR Codes

A QR Code (Quick Response Code) is a two-dimensional code that can be used to encode strings such as a URL. Most smartphones and can scan and interpret QR Codes via software.

With such a QR code you can now easily share your online voting. In the last step in our voting generator, a QR code that points to the member link of your vote or poll is automatically created .

The QR Code can be downloaded and printed on postcards, flyers or posters. Your audience or your participants can scan the code and will be forwarded to your PollUnit and the survey can start without entering a URL.

To scan a QR code, your participants will need a scanner app. Various apps of this kind can be found and installed free of charge in app stores. After the installation the app can be started and the camera can be held above the QR code. The code will be read and the URL will be called automatically.

Collaborate in organizations and manage polls together

Collaborate in organizations and manage polls together

We have expanded our business and enterprise accounts to include organizations and user management. With one organization you can share, create, manage and evaluate polls and surveys with multiple users.

If you belong to an organization, you can switch between your private PollUnit account and the organization account. The members of the organization get access to the PollUnits created for the organization. As a member you can also use the premium, business and enterprise functions of the organization. Thus you do not only create and administer online polls and free tables, but also logos, designs and participant lists. Your private account remains unaffected and only you can view and manage its content.

Find, filter and sort your PollUnits

Today we released a new feature for all power users of our Online Voting Tool. You can now search, filter and sort your PollUnits.

In your overview you will find a search field with which you can search for the title, the description, as well as the name of the creator of the PollUnit. The matching PollUnits will be displayed as a result.

You can sort lists according to three criteria: the newest PollUnits, the newest activities in your PollUnit and titles.

Click on the filter icon to enter the advanced search. Here you can filter for further attributes of your PollUnits. E.g. if you only want to see date polls or if you want to filter for dot votes. The filters can be combined arbitrarily - also with the search!

If you miss an important filter or other feature, send us an email to support@pollunit.com or open a ticket in our Support Forum.

For all who are new to PollUnit: have a look at our homepage for an overview of our features for free polls and surveys.

Evaluate polls per country

Evaluate polls per country

As already announced, we have extended our tools for the evaluation of polls and surveys. You can now evaluate your participants per country.

Using the GeoLite2 data from MaxMind, we can now find out the country of your voter and make it available to you anonymously. Opinions and tastes can vary regionally and these country-specific differences in your international surveys can now be identified quickly and reliably.

The country evaluation works for all types of our online voting and gives you an insight into the regionally different preferences of your participants.

Further information can be found in our tutorial Evaluate your PollUnit. If we can help you with more tools to better understand your votes, use our forum for a feature request or write us an email to support@pollunit.com.

Limit the number of participants per option or date

We have extended the possibility of limiting participants in your PollUnit voting. You can now choose between three limitation types.

No Limits means that every voter can vote for any option, no matter how many other participants voted for that option before.

A global limit on all options allows you to limit the number of participants of all options to the same number. For example, with a limit of 1, each option can only be selected once.

Individual limits per option are limitations on options or dates. You can configure the number of possible participations per option here. For example, you can plan online courses with different numbers of seats.

You will find the settings for this in step 4, the advanced settings, when creating your voting.
