Your privacy matters. We keep it simple.

We do not collect, store, or sell your personal data. SAFE Action is a civic engagement tool that runs entirely in your browser. We have no user accounts, no databases of personal information, and no tracking cookies.
When you enter your address to find your representatives, this information is sent directly to third-party APIs (such as the Google Civic Information API) to look up your elected officials. Your address is not stored on our servers or in any database we control.
When you use our email or call tools, your browser opens your email client or phone dialer directly. We do not intercept, read, or store the content of any communications you send to your representatives.
Some features use your browser's localStorage to remember preferences (like your address for convenience). This data stays on your device and is never transmitted to us. You can clear it at any time through your browser settings.
Our Daily Action Tracker displays aggregate counts of emails and calls made through the platform. These counts are anonymous and cannot be traced back to any individual user. No personally identifiable information is associated with these counts.
We use the following third-party services, each governed by their own privacy policies:
If you are a political candidate and submit the Candidate Quiz, you are voluntarily providing information about your public policy positions. This information is reviewed and, if approved, published publicly on our Pledge Directory. Candidate submissions are the only data we store, and they consist entirely of public political positions — not private personal data.
If you submit a volunteer application, the information you provide (name, email, areas of interest) is stored securely for the purpose of coordinating volunteer activities. This information is never shared with third parties and is only accessible to authorized SAFE Action administrators.
SAFE Action is fully open source. You can review our complete codebase at any time on GitHub to verify exactly how we handle data.
If we ever change how we handle data, we will update this page and the "last updated" date above. Because our code is open source, any changes are publicly visible in our commit history.
If you have questions about this privacy policy, you can open an issue on our GitHub repository.
