Webinar chat and making it anonymous

If I ensure that people can only chat with hosts - I assume that no one else on the webinar will see their responses? And assume this is the case if we record the session - I want to protect people's privacy so that they feel safe responding to my questions.

    Welcome to the Zoom Community, @MelissaK.

     

    If you use these settings:

    ... attendees can send chats that are only visible to Hosts and Panelists, and Panelists can only chat to other Hosts and Panelists.  However, Hosts and Co-Hosts can chat to anyone.

     

    I generally don't allow Panelists to send chats directly to the audience, just in case they really meant to only send it to the Hosts and Panelists and forgot to look.
