Introduction

Optiq Data LLC ("Optiq", "Optiq Data", "Company," "we," "us," or "our") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our website and services. We are dedicated to maintaining the highest standards of data security and transparency. By accessing or using our services, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy.

Information We Collect

We collect two types of data: Personal Data and Non-Identifiable Data.

1. Personal Data

"Personal Data" refers to information that identifies an individual or can be used to identify an individual, such as:

  • Name, email address, phone number, and company affiliation (if provided voluntarily)
  • Billing and payment information for subscription processing
  • Account credentials and authentication details
  • IP addresses and device identifiers (collected for security purposes)
  • Voter file data, including names, addresses, voter registration details, voting history, and demographic information, stored securely for analytics purposes but not made available for sale
  • Interaction and engagement data from voter records to provide aggregated insights

We do not sell personally identifiable voter records, consumer data, or other sensitive personal information. Access to voter file data is strictly limited to authorized personnel and is protected by industry-standard security measures. We ensure that all processing of voter data is compliant with applicable election laws and privacy regulations.

2. Non-Identifiable Data (Aggregated Insights)

Optiq specializes in providing aggregated, de-identified data insights. We may collect and analyze non-personal information, including:

  • Statistical data on political and demographic trends
  • Anonymized behavioral analytics
  • Aggregated voter engagement metrics
  • Derived analytics and scoring models used to create insights for campaigns and organizations

This data is never linked to any identifiable individual and is used to provide high-level insights to our clients. We take meticulous steps to ensure that all de-identified data remains irreversible and cannot be re-associated with any individual.

How We Use Your Information

We use the information collected for the following purposes:

  • To provide and improve our services, including data analytics and insights
  • To process transactions and manage subscriptions
  • To communicate with you regarding updates, support, and service notifications
  • To monitor and enhance security and prevent fraudulent activities
  • To comply with legal obligations and enforce our Terms of Service
  • To generate aggregated statistical reports for political organizations, advocacy groups, and market research purposes
  • To ensure compliance with applicable election laws and data protection regulations
  • To maintain the integrity of voter data and uphold ethical data use standards

How We Share Your Information

Optiq does not sell personal data. We may share information only in the following limited circumstances:

  • With Service Providers: Third-party vendors that assist with payment processing, cloud storage, security, or technical support
  • Legal Compliance: If required by law, such as responding to subpoenas or regulatory inquiries
  • Business Transfers: In case of a merger, acquisition, or asset sale, aggregated and non-identifiable data may be transferred
  • With Clients (De-identified Data Only): We may share aggregated insights and statistical models with clients, but never individual voter records or personally identifiable data

Text Messaging

If you voluntarily provide your phone number and separately opt in to text messages, we may send company information, event reminders, and related messages to that number. Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply. Consent is not a condition of purchase. Donations will not be solicited.

You may unsubscribe at any time by replying STOP. Reply HELP for help.
