Privacy policy and text message terms

Freedom Vote is published by Freedom Vote LLC. Last updated October 2, 2026.

What we collect

When you make an account in the Freedom Vote app:

• Your name, date of birth and ZIP code.
• Your phone number if you sign in with it, or the email address and account ID Apple or Google share if you sign in with them.
• Your street address, if you add it, so we can show your exact ballot, districts and polling place.
• Your party, if you choose one, whether you tell us you’re registered, how you plan to vote, and the candidates you follow.
• A notification token from Apple or Google, if you turn reminders on, so we can send them to your phone.

We don’t collect your precise location, contacts, photos or advertising identifiers, and the app has no ads or tracking.

How we use it

Only to run the app: to show the races and candidates on your ballot, your election dates and polling place, to point you to your state’s official voter registration tools, and to remind you about registration deadlines, early voting, Election Day and updates from the candidates you follow. Your party and the candidates you follow are political opinions; we use them only for those features.

The registration check and polling place search run on your phone, directly with your state’s official website. We don’t see what you type there. When your state’s site confirms you’re registered, the app saves that you’re registered to your account.

What we don’t do

We do not sell your personal information or use it for advertising. We do not share your phone number or text message consent with third parties or affiliates for their marketing.

Who helps us run Freedom Vote

We share only what each service needs to do its job for us: Vercel (hosting) and Neon (our database); Google Firebase (texts your sign-in code and delivers Android notifications); Apple (iPhone notifications and Sign in with Apple) and Google (Sign in with Google); the U.S. Census Bureau’s address lookup, which turns your street address into your voting districts; Google’s Civic Information API, which receives your street address to find your exact ballot and polling place; and Twilio, which sends text message reminders, only if you opt in.

How long we keep it

Until you delete your account. Then we delete your information and everything tied to it, including the sign-in record Google Firebase keeps if you signed in with your phone number.

Children

Freedom Vote is for voters and isn’t directed to children under 13.

Text messages
