FAQ
What do I need to convene a discussion?
The only key ingredient is a good question to ask.
In addition, you may want to consider the following options:
To make the discussion more focused, you can refer to a document, online or in pdf.
To produce a joint document, you can upload a draft of the text you want to discuss.
If you want to restrict participant, you can upload either a list of email domains or a list of emails of the participants.
Full instructions are available for you to draft a question page. And we'll help you get the best results at each step of the way!
How will comCensus ensure the anonymity of participants?
By not collecting identifying data in the first place. Our system is designed to make it impossible even for comCensus staff to tell who said what, or to retrieve the emails of participants.
Am I giving away the personal data of participants, when I set up a question?
No. In particular, their emails are not saved in our system in a retrievable form - so, no one can steal them.
Participants can voluntarily share their emails with us to get notifications, but that is their choice.
The only accessible personal information associated with a question are the names of participants and their affiliation (or similar category chosen by the convenor) - but this is usually already public information in most organisations anyway. And participants can easily remove themselves from the list.
Does comCensus require downloading an app or integrating with my system?
No. In order to use comCensus, all you and the participants need is an internet connection.
You can access comCensus on the phone, but for a better experience we recommend using a keyboard and a large screen,
