Privacy
Guide the Vote does not sell user information.
We do not provide personal data to candidates, campaigns, political parties, political advertisers, or political action committees. Ever. There is no exception, no premium tier, and no back-channel.
What we collect
- Information you give us: an email address if you subscribe to the newsletter, form contents if you write to us or submit a correction, and account details if you're an editor.
- Basic request logs (IP address, browser type, page requested) for security, debugging, and abuse prevention.
- Aggregate, non-identifying analytics about which pages are used.
How we use it
- To reply to you when you contact us.
- To send the newsletter, if you asked for it.
- To operate and secure the site.
- To improve our educational content in aggregate — never to profile individual voters.
Cookies
We use only the cookies required to keep you signed in as an editor and to prevent form spam. We do not use advertising cookies. We do not use cross-site tracking pixels.
Third parties
The site uses a hosting provider and a database provider to operate. Those providers process request data on our behalf under a confidentiality agreement. We do not use third-party ad networks.
Retention & deletion
Newsletter subscriptions are kept until you unsubscribe. Form submissions are kept as long as needed to respond and to keep our correction record accurate. Request logs are rotated on a rolling window.
To request deletion of your data, write to us via the contact form.
Your rights
You may ask us what we hold about you, correct it, or delete it. You may unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time using the link in any newsletter email.
