Methodology

Index formulas

Public missions produce aggregated results only. Each index uses approved responses; we apply minimum group sizes before showing segment breakdowns. Scales (e.g. 0–10, 0–100) are defined per mission type and shown on the dashboard.

Rolling windows (7D, 14D, 30D) are used where configured. Results refresh according to the mission's refresh window (daily, weekly, or monthly).

Privacy & aggregation

• Aggregates only — No raw answers or individual responses are shown publicly.
• Minimum group size — Segments below the threshold are hidden automatically.
• No identity display — No usernames or identifiers are exposed on public dashboards.
• Retention — Response data is retained per our privacy policy; aggregates may be cached for performance.

Known limitations

Index reliability depends on sample size and coverage. New or low-response missions may show "Low" reliability until enough data is collected. We do not adjust for demographic weighting unless stated on the specific mission.
