4. How Registration Checks Work — Important Notice Regarding Your Information
When you submit a voter registration check through SCP, the Platform operates as follows:
Information retained by True the Vote: True the Vote retains only your basic contact information — specifically your name, email address, and phone number — for the purposes of case management and follow-up communication.
Information transmitted to the state: Any additional personally identifying information you provide to facilitate a voter record lookup — including but not limited to your driver's license number, the last four digits of your Social Security Number, tribal identification number, or other state-required identity verification credentials — is transmitted directly to the voter registration authority of the state from which your voter record is being requested. This information is not retained in True the Vote's systems beyond what is necessary to facilitate that transmission.
By submitting a registration check, you expressly authorize True the Vote to transmit your identifying information to the applicable state voter registration authority on your behalf for the purpose of retrieving your voter registration record.
You should review the privacy practices of your state's election authority, as that entity's policies — not this Privacy Policy — govern how they handle the information transmitted to them.
