The mode can be used with both kinds of data. The median may be used with ordinal data but great care is required if the median falls between two classes of observations.

Which measure of central tendency cannot be applied to ordinal data?
The mean cannot be used with ordinal data. The best measure of central tendency for ordinal data is usually the median. A common example of ordinal data is the scale you see in many surveys. 1=Strongly disagree; 2=Disagree; 3=Neutral; 4=Agree; 5=Strongly agree. The mean would have not meaning here ( no pun intended) The median is simple the middle value. The mode does have meaning.
