Many survey tools process user data via international infrastructures, third-party providers, or subprocessors outside of Germany. For companies with high data protection requirements, this quickly becomes a problem – legally, organizationally, and technically.
With PollHero, you get a modern survey platform that treats data protection not as an add-on feature, but as the foundation of the entire architecture.
This allows you to collect qualitative insights without compromising on data protection, security, or data sovereignty.
Especially in larger companies, corporations, or regulated industries, data protection requirements have long since become part of technical decisions. Feedback and survey tools often involve sensitive data:
Many providers rely on complex international infrastructures or external services outside of Germany. This increases coordination effort, compliance risks, and technical dependencies.
The entire platform is operated and hosted in Germany. This includes:
No non-DE subprocessors are used.
This creates clear responsibilities, reduces data protection complexity, and simplifies internal approval processes for data protection, IT, and legal.
In open feedback fields, users often unintentionally provide personal information:
With integrated PII masking, PollHero helps to identify and protect sensitive information at an early stage.
This reduces data protection risks when processing qualitative feedback data and supports privacy-friendly analysis processes.
