WE-TP FEC Compliance Statement
Updated: November 18, 2025
1. Non-Partisan Nature
- WE-TP is open to all U.S. citizens 18+ regardless of party affiliation, ideology, or political views.
- No feature favors any candidate, party, or viewpoint. Endorsements, polls, and petitions are user-generated opinions, not platform endorsements.
Compliance:
FECA § 30118 (corporate/political activity); FEC Advisory Opinion 2010-09 (non-partisan tools OK).
2. Endorsements, “Back,” and “Track” System
- Users can publicly endorse (“back”) runners/politicians or privately track activity. These are personal expressions, not campaign contributions or coordination.
- No financial transactions, vote counting, or candidate matching. Endorsements do not imply FEC reporting.
Compliance:
FECA § 30116 (contribution limits); FEC Reg. 11 CFR § 100.52 (non-coordinated activity). Not an in-kind contribution.
3. Polls and Petition System
- Polls are informational/non-binding; petitions are user-initiated for civic engagement (not official ballot measures).
- Targeting (age, location, etc.) is for user education, not voter suppression or manipulation.
- Signatures are digital/not certified; no role in official AZ elections.
Compliance:
FECA § 30121 (false statements); A.R.S. § 19-101 (electronic petitions as tools). No binding votes.
4. Voting Maps and Location Features
- Displays public polling locations from Google Civic API (HAVA-compliant). No voter names, addresses, or tracking.
- Ride coordination is volunteer/non-partisan (user-to-user matching).
Compliance:
HAVA 52 U.S.C. § 20901 (public polling access); ADA Title II (accessibility); A.R.S. § 16-411 (public lists).
5. User Data and Privacy
- Demographic questions are optional and private. Answers are used only as group totals in poll results, which WE-TP may sell or license; groups under 10 people are withheld.
- Research reports are offered at the same rates and terms to every buyer, regardless of party. WE-TP does not give poll data to a campaign for free or below fair market value, which could count as an in-kind contribution.
- Members can opt out of research use (“Do not sell or share”), and Global Privacy Control signals are honored. Members can export or delete their data at any time. No one under 18 can hold an account.
Compliance:
Built with the California Consumer Privacy Act (as amended by the CPRA) and similar state privacy laws in mind; COPPA (15 U.S.C. § 6501) is addressed by the 18+ requirement.
6. Stock Tracking and Candidate Stats
- Official House and Senate STOCK Act disclosures only; aggregate stats (endorsements) for education.
- No real-time trading or insider info.
Compliance:
SEC Reg FD (17 CFR § 243.101); FECA § 30118 (non-partisan info OK).
7. Admin Tools and Moderation
- Internal use only; audit logs for transparency.
Compliance:
Section 230 (47 U.S.C. § 230) for moderation; FECA § 30111 for records.
8. General Platform Rules
- U.S. citizens only (attestation + verification).
- No hate speech, threats, or illegal coordination (member reports and admin review).
Compliance:
1st Amendment limits; A.R.S. § 16-1001 (voter education).
WE-TP is committed to transparency and compliance.
