Anonymous Poll for Teams
The question people actually ask
In workplace tools, the recurring worry is not "is this labelled anonymous" but "can my manager find out it was me?" It is a fair question, because with most platforms the honest answer is maybe. The vendor still collects participant IP addresses and hands them over when asked.
PollMaker.ai does not keep them. The address is hashed with a per-poll secret and discarded at the moment a ballot is cast. There is no admin screen, no export, and no legal request that can surface who voted, because the data was never stored.
Why that changes the answers you get
On a retro, a sentiment check, or a vote on a sensitive decision, people round their answers toward what is safe the instant they suspect they can be identified. Removing that suspicion at the data layer, not just in the copy, is what makes an anonymous team poll worth running.
Keep it safe to use
Anonymity without moderation is a hazard, so every poll can be reported by any viewer, and abusive polls are taken down. Reports are anonymous too.
