- You can always come back to answer more & new polling questions.
- People who vote in our polls are anonymous. We may ask demographic questions but no personally identifiable information is stored.

HOW WE USE THE POLLING DATA:
- Polling data is used by BuzzFeed & CivicScience for research purposes only.
- BuzzFeed uses polls to learn what’s important to our audience.
- Real-time results displayed with the poll questions reflect the responses of everyone who has taken the poll but are not based on representative samples.
- However, we also create statistically valid results by using profile responses to weight results based on demographic data and other mathematical models.
