PeopleVote does not endorse candidates, parties, or ballot positions unless expressly stated in an official notice.

3. Eligibility and Accounts

You must provide accurate information when creating an account or candidate profile. You are responsible for keeping your login credentials confidential and for all activity under your account.

4. User Content

You are responsible for content you submit, including profile details, posts, comments, questions, images, videos, event information, and campaign materials. You represent that you have the rights needed to submit that content and that it does not violate these Terms or applicable law.

5. Community Rules

• Do not post threats, harassment, hate speech, or content intended to intimidate voters or candidates.
• Do not impersonate another person, candidate, campaign, organization, or public office.

6. Candidate and Verification Features

Candidate profiles, verification badges, or transparency tools are provided to support trust and clarity. Verification does not represent an endorsement. PeopleVote may request additional information, decline verification, suspend profiles, or remove content if we believe platform rules or legal requirements have been violated.

7. Election Information

PeopleVote may provide election, ballot, candidate, and issue information from users, public sources, partners, or third-party services. We work to support accuracy, but information may change. Users should verify official election deadlines, registration status, polling locations, and ballot information with official election authorities.

We may review, remove, limit, suspend, or terminate content, features, or accounts that we believe violate these Terms, our community guidelines, platform integrity rules, or applicable law.

10. Disclaimers

PeopleVote is provided “as is” and “as available.” We do not guarantee uninterrupted operation, complete accuracy, or that all content will be error-free. PeopleVote is not legal, political, financial, or election-administration advice.

11. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, PeopleVote and its owners, employees, contractors, and partners will not be liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, special, punitive, or exemplary damages arising from your use of the platform.
