“Notify Me” is a pre-registration web site that was evaluated in the 2014 Census Test as part of an effort to optimize self-response to the 2020 Census. The site was designed to collect the email address or telephone number of respondents so that the U.S. Census Bureau could utilize this contact information to remind respondents to complete the census online. The “Notify Me” website as well as one sentence on the advance postcard that notifies respondents that the website is available were both translated into Spanish.
