Platform Transparency
Every month, and whenever we make a significant change, we run automated checks across five areas: security, data accuracy, editorial standards, how we handle personal data, and legal compliance. Each result is logged permanently and cannot be edited afterwards.
We publish the headline result here. The detailed findings stay internal, because publishing the specifics of our security setup would only help someone trying to break it.

Advisory means something we are working towards or that needs a manual check. It is not a fault. Any failed check is investigated and fixed.

Independent Methodology Panel
Named, credentialled academics with published expertise in democratic engagement, electoral statistics, or political science review the platform's methodology, including the exact scoring logic behind every published figure. Their reviews are published here in full, unedited.
The Independent Methodology Panel is being formed. Reviews will appear here once published.
Questions are never deleted once published. Some close because their comparison window ends; a small number close because they did not attract enough public interest within a fair period, always after at least 60 days with genuinely no votes. Occasionally we close questions early so votes are concentrated on fewer questions; when we do, the date and reason are shown on each one. Every closed question, and the reason it closed, stays visible in the public Archive.
