The quiz collects nothing

Your answers to the voting quiz stay in your browser (sessionStorage) and are never sent to any server. Your match score is computed on your device. We do not use accounts, logins, cookies, analytics or trackers. There is no answer data for us to hold, share or lose. Political opinion is a special category of data under GDPR Art. 9, and the architecture is built so that this data never leaves your device.

Data you send through forms (opt-in)

If you submit the correction/report form, the volunteer-counsel form, or a party right-of-reply, we store what you enter. This is the only place personal data exists.

• —Report form: your description and, optionally, an evidence link and contact email. If you identify as a campaign or party, that role is stored only if you tick the explicit consent box.
• —Volunteer counsel form: your name, email, jurisdiction and professional details.
• —Party right-of-reply: the positions and evidence submitted on behalf of a party.
• —We do not log your IP address, and error logs are deliberately stripped of submission content.

Candidate and party data

Our editorial database holds the political positions of named parties and candidates, each with a public source. For candidate-based elections these are opinions of identifiable people and so count as special-category data under GDPR Art. 9. We rely on Art. 9(2)(e) (data manifestly made public by the person) together with the freedom-of-expression / journalistic basis in Art. 85. Any party or candidate can request a correction through the report form (Art. 16).

Legal basis and retention

• —Report submissions: legitimate interest in correcting the record; deleted after 12 months.
• —Volunteer counsel: consent; deleted after 24 months.
• —Party responses and source material: legitimate editorial interest; deleted after 24 months.
• —Sensitive political role in a report: explicit consent (Art. 9(2)(a)); withheld if not given.
• —A daily job deletes records past their retention limit automatically.

Where data is stored

All data is stored in the European Union (Frankfurt, eu-central-1). We do not transfer personal data outside the EU.

Your rights

You have the right to access, rectify, erase, restrict and object to processing of your data, and to data portability, under GDPR Art. 15–22. To exercise any of these, contact privacy@voteifor.com. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority (GDPR Art. 77) — in Bulgaria, the Commission for Personal Data Protection (CPDP).
