Terms

Terms of use

Plain language. Last updated October 21, 2026.

SaveYourState (“we”, “us”) operates SaveYourState.com. By using the site you agree to these terms.

Independent and nonpartisan

SaveYourState is an independent civic information resource. It is not a government website and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or operated by any government agency, political party, or campaign. We do not endorse, oppose, rate, or score any bill, party, or candidate.

Information provided as is

We work to keep everything accurate and current, but the information on this site is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including accuracy, completeness, timeliness, or fitness for a particular purpose. Official government sources control in case of any discrepancy; every record links to its source so you can check it.

Not legal advice

Nothing on this site is legal advice, and summaries of bills are not a substitute for the official text. For advice about your situation, talk to a qualified attorney. For voting and election questions, contact your state or county election office.

Data sources and licenses

  • Open States / Plural (bills and legislators for most states). Open States data is in the public domain; we credit Open States on every record that uses it.
  • Federal Election Commission (FEC) (federal candidates and finance totals). U.S. government data in the public domain. Federal law (52 U.S.C. § 30111(a)(4)) prohibits using individual contributor information from FEC reports to solicit contributions or for commercial purposes.
  • State legislatures and state election offices (for example, the Washington and California legislatures and Secretaries of State). Public records published by those offices, used under their terms.
  • U.S. Census Bureau (district boundary files). U.S. government data in the public domain.

You may reuse facts from this site; please credit the original source (and SaveYourState, if you like). Our own text, design, and logo belong to SaveYourState.

Photos

We use only photos we have the right to show: public domain government portraits, photos candidates submitted to official state Voters’ Guides, and freely licensed photos from Wikimedia Commons (shown with the author and license, as each license requires). Each photo shows a credit naming its source, and rights stay with the photographer or that source. Candidates can send us a photo they own and allow us to use. If you believe a photo is used in error or shows the wrong person, email us and we’ll review it promptly.

Acceptable use

  • Don’t use the site in a way that harms it or other visitors: no automated scraping or bulk downloading that degrades the service, no attempts to bypass security or rate limits, and no signing up other people for alerts without their permission.
  • Light, polite automated access is fine. For bulk data, please use the original sources, which publish it directly.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent the law allows, SaveYourState is not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages, or for any loss arising from your use of, or reliance on, the site or its information. Some places don’t allow these limits, so they may not all apply to you.

We link to official government and other external websites. We don’t control them and aren’t responsible for their content or availability.

Privacy

How we handle email alert signups is explained in our privacy policy.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms. When we do, we’ll change the date above. Continuing to use the site after a change means you accept the updated terms.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Washington, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules.
