Thanks Ravi. I actually emailed them saying that I will gather the student data offline and then send them one datafile by email. I know that such requests must be turned down but you know how it works. People think that temporary convenience is more important than freedom.

https://www.kobotoolbox.org/ is a free software alternative for Google Forms. I cannot recommend you to use that because it installs Google Analytics cookies in the visitor's browser. In other words, the central server
https://www.kobotoolbox.org/ front end is nonfree software because it contains Google Analytics cookies which is nonfree.
