Answers ready for the rota
A call for volunteers by email or in a group chat brings scattered answers. Here, days, shifts and posts are checkboxes: every response has the same shape. Export them to CSV and filter in your spreadsheet to fill each shift.
The age question lets you assign posts without asking for a date of birth: the bar for adults, the welcome desk for everyone. The emergency contact and the T-shirt size save you a second message to each volunteer.
Make it fit your event
A race, a flea market and a village fair do not have the same posts: rename them (water station, marshals, registration desk), add or remove days. Conditional logic shows a question only for some answers, for example a driving licence for those who pick the shuttles.

Personal data: the right habits
- Ask whether the person is an adult rather than for their date of birth: that is all the rota needs.
- The emergency contact is about someone else: keep it optional, and delete the form after the event, once you have exported what you keep.
- Before the submit button, add a Heading field saying what the data is for and how long you keep it.
- Responses are hosted in France, with OVHcloud.
