1. **Open Google Forms** – Go to [Google Forms](https://forms.google.com/) and open the form you want to make anonymous.
2. **Remove Email Collection** – Click on the settings icon ⚙️, navigate to the “Responses” tab, and ensure that the **“Collect email addresses”** option is turned off.
3. **Turn Off Required Sign-In** – In the same settings menu, uncheck **“Restrict to users in [your organization] and its trusted organizations”** to allow anyone to respond without signing in.
4. **Avoid Asking for Identifiable Information** – Remove fields requesting personal details like name, phone number, or email unless necessary.
5. **Disable IP Tracking (Optional)** – Google Forms does not collect IP addresses by default, so no further action is needed.
6. **Test the Form** – Open the form in an incognito window or log out of your Google account to verify that responses remain anonymous.
7. **Share the Form** – Copy the link and share it publicly, ensuring respondents can submit answers without revealing their identity.
