We asked new members for their birthday for two years and never used it once. Reading this, I finally took the field off our sign-up form. One less thing to protect.
Thanks Sarah, saving this! Our winter coat swap volunteers are still on a shared spreadsheet that far too many people can open. How did you get your coordinators to agree on who keeps admin rights? That's the conversation I keep putting off.
One more reason to collect less: shorter forms convert better. When a client cut their sign-up form from nine fields to four, completion went from 52% to 71%. Privacy and growth pull in the same direction here.
