Terms & Conditions

These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of My Ballot Companion™ (“MBC,” the “Service”), which is operated by Girls Who Can LLC (“Girls Who Can,” “we,” “our,” or “us”).

By accessing or using MBC, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Service.

My Ballot Companion™ is a nonpartisan civic-information and educational platform designed to help voters better understand candidates, ballot measures, propositions, judicial races, and other election information.

MBC is currently designed to provide ballot information for voters in Texas.

MBC is not a government agency, election authority, political party, campaign, candidate organization, or advocacy organization.

MBC provides information for educational and informational purposes.

MBC is not intended to:

• Tell you how to vote;
• Endorse or oppose a candidate;
• Advocate for or against a ballot measure;
• Support or oppose a political party;
• Make voting decisions on your behalf; or
• Provide legal, financial, or other professional advice.

Personalized information provided through MBC is intended to help explain how election information may relate to priorities, concerns, or circumstances you choose to share. Personalized information is not a recommendation or instruction about how you should vote.

You remain responsible for evaluating the information presented and making your own voting decisions.

We work to provide election information that is useful, understandable, and current. However, election information can change, and information provided through MBC may contain errors, omissions, delays, or outdated information.

We do not guarantee that information provided through the Service will always be complete, accurate, current, available, or suitable for a particular purpose.

MBC is not an official election-information source.

You should verify important information, including election dates, voter-registration status and deadlines, eligibility requirements, polling locations, voting procedures, ballot details, and official election results with the appropriate state or local election authority.

MBC uses artificial intelligence and other automated technologies to help generate, summarize, organize, and explain election-related information.

These technologies may also be used to provide personalized context based on priorities, concerns, and other information you choose to provide.

AI-generated or automated content may contain errors, omissions, or inaccuracies.

MBC does not intend AI-generated personalization to function as a candidate recommendation, ballot recommendation, candidate match, endorsement, or instruction about how to vote.

You should review information carefully and verify important election information using official election sources.

Certain MBC features require or allow you to provide information, including your address, email address, selected priorities or concerns, and optional free-text information.

You are responsible for ensuring that information you provide is lawful and that you have the right to provide it.

Please do not submit another person’s private or sensitive personal information without authorization.

You should also avoid submitting unnecessary highly sensitive information, such as Social Security numbers, financial account information, passwords, medical records, or other information that is not necessary to use MBC.

When you submit information through MBC, you give Girls Who Can LLC permission to use, process, store, transmit, and reproduce that information as reasonably necessary to provide and operate the Service, provide features you request, maintain and secure the Service, comply with applicable law, and carry out the purposes described in our Privacy Policy.

You retain any rights you may have in information you submit.

You agree to use MBC lawfully and responsibly.

You may not use the Service to:

• Engage in unlawful, fraudulent, abusive, or deceptive activity;
• Attempt to gain unauthorized access to MBC or related systems;
• Interfere with or disrupt the Service;
• Introduce malicious software or harmful code;
• Circumvent security or access restrictions;
• Conduct unauthorized bulk scraping, automated extraction, or similar activity;
• Falsely suggest that MBC endorses a candidate, campaign, political party, organization, or ballot position;
• Falsely represent MBC information as official government or election information; or
• Use the Service in a manner that could damage, disable, overburden, or impair MBC.

MBC’s branding, logos, designs, original content, software, interface, and other proprietary materials are owned by or licensed to Girls Who Can LLC and are protected by applicable intellectual-property laws.

Subject to these Terms, you may use MBC for your personal, noncommercial use.

You may not, without permission:

• Reproduce or commercially exploit MBC’s proprietary content;
• Misuse MBC branding or trademarks;
• Redistribute MBC content in a misleading manner;
• Reverse engineer or attempt to obtain protected source code except where applicable law expressly permits it; or
• Represent MBC content or technology as your own.

Election information and other third-party content available through MBC may be subject to separate ownership rights or terms.

MBC relies on third-party providers and services to support certain functionality, including election information, artificial-intelligence processing, hosting and technical infrastructure, application monitoring and diagnostics, communications, and other operational services.

MBC may also provide links or references to websites and resources operated by third parties, including government election authorities.

We do not control third-party websites or services and are not responsible for their availability, content, security, privacy practices, or accuracy.

Your use of third-party services may be subject to their own terms and privacy policies.

We may modify, update, suspend, restrict, or discontinue all or part of MBC at any time.

We do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free access to the Service.

Features, election coverage, content, and availability may change over time.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, MBC is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis.

We disclaim warranties of any kind, express or implied, including warranties of accuracy, completeness, reliability, availability, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and noninfringement, to the extent permitted by law.

Nothing in these Terms excludes warranties or rights that cannot lawfully be excluded.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Girls Who Can LLC and its owners, officers, employees, contractors, and service providers will not be liable for losses or damages arising from or relating to:

• Decisions made based on information provided through MBC;
• Voting or election outcomes;
• Inaccurate, incomplete, delayed, or outdated information;
• AI-generated or automated content;
• Interruptions or unavailability of the Service;
• Third-party information, websites, or services; or
• Unauthorized access, security incidents, or events beyond our reasonable control.

Nothing in these Terms limits liability where such limitation is prohibited by law.

Your use of MBC is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which explains how we collect, use, store, and share information.

My Ballot Companion is a nonpartisan educational tool, not an official government website. It does not provide legal advice or voting recommendations. Always confirm official voting details with your local election office or state election website.

MBC is intended for individuals using the Service to learn about elections and civic participation.

The Service is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

If we learn that personal information from a child under 13 has been collected, we will take appropriate steps to address it.

We may update these Terms from time to time to reflect changes to MBC, our practices, applicable law, or other operational needs.

When we make changes, we will update the Effective Date.

Your continued use of MBC after revised Terms become effective constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms to the extent permitted by law.

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas and applicable federal law, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.

Any venue or dispute-resolution requirements should be determined in accordance with applicable law and any additional terms adopted by Girls Who Can LLC.

If any provision of these Terms is determined to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in effect to the extent permitted by law.

These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any additional terms expressly applicable to a particular MBC feature, constitute the agreement between you and Girls Who Can LLC regarding your use of the Service.
