At SurveyMonkey, protecting your data is a priority and a promise. That’s why we offer first-class Enhanced Sensitive Data Protection (ESDP) for organizations dealing with sensitive data. These features are all about giving you control, security, and flexibility—and they just got even more useful for educators and schools.
New: Expanded data collection for schools and districts
We’re excited to announce that US schools and districts can now use SurveyMonkey to collect survey responses from individuals under the age of 16.
This unlocks new opportunities for educators to gather input directly from students of all ages in a safe, compliant, and secure way. By hearing from more voices across the school community, educators can design experiences that better support learning, growth, and well-being.
Why this matters
With this update, schools, districts, educators, and school admins can start expanding their feedback programs and know that their surveys are backed by privacy protection, admin controls, and enterprise-grade security.
What to know about SurveyMonkey Enhanced Sensitive Data Protection
ESDP isn’t just for educators. From healthcare to HR, these features can benefit any org that handles personal data—i.e. information that can be linked to an individual, such as their name or contact details, especially when combined with sensitive information.
Our ESDP features protect the data you collect through enterprise safeguards that meet the highest standards of privacy and compliance.
Key security features include:
- Security reminders → In-product prompts whenever survey data may be exported or shared with third parties.
- Automatic logoff → User sessions end after 30 minutes of inactivity, reducing exposure risk.
- Account safeguarding → Faster, more secure removal of data when accounts are deleted.
