Guides
How should we handle private or sensitive needs?
Plan around access, diet, budget, childcare, travel, and safety without asking people to disclose more than necessary.

Follow the guide with these controlled fictional examples from the current application.


Ask what the plan needs to accommodate

An organizer may need to know that a venue requires step-free access or that a restaurant must handle an allergy. They usually do not need a diagnosis, household financial details, or an explanation of childcare arrangements.
Frame the question around making participation possible and offer an appropriate direct channel when the answer should not be visible to the whole huddl.
Know what Huddl does not make private
Chat, tasks, suggestions, and plan responses are shared coordination surfaces for active members. Huddl does not provide a private organizer-only survey for budgets, health information, or accommodations.
Use a trusted private method for sensitive details, then record only the resulting plan requirement the group actually needs.
Verify inclusion in practice
- Ask venues directly about access, ingredients, and policies.
- Avoid public rankings of who can afford an option.
- Do not pressure someone to explain a Not Going response.
- Check that the final place, time, and logistics reflect the agreed need.
