# Vote Clarity — Support

Vote Clarity is a free, non-partisan quiz that compares your priorities with the
major parties' publicly stated policies, so you can decide for yourself where to
vote. This page is here to answer questions and get you help.

## Common questions

### The app shows the wrong country
The app works out your country when you first open it. If it guessed wrong, tap
the country chip at the top of the screen and pick the right one. Your answers
are kept per country.

### Where do the party positions come from?
Each party is placed on the same scale using its **publicly stated** policies —
manifestos, official policy pages, public statements and voting records. Every
party is scored by the identical formula, and you can expand any question to see
each party's position and our source.

### A party's position looks out of date or wrong
Positions are reviewed regularly, but policies move. Email us with the question
and the party and we will re-check it against the party's own material. Always
verify with the party's official sources before relying on a result.

### How is my match calculated?
Your agreement on each question is compared with each party's position on the
same five-point scale, weighted by how much you said the issue matters. Topics
are weighted equally so a large topic cannot drown out a small one, and a party
that has published nothing on half your answers cannot score above half.

### Do you collect my data?
Taking the quiz stores nothing on our servers. Only if you separately tick the
consent box on the results page and press **Contribute my result** is an
anonymous record stored. We never collect your name, email, phone, address, IP
address or any account. Full detail is in our
[Privacy notice](PRIVACY.md), and our [Terms](TERMS.md) explain the rest.

### I want my contribution removed
Contributions carry nothing that identifies you, so we cannot find an individual
record to delete — that is a deliberate design choice, and we explain it plainly
in the Privacy notice. Clearing the app's data, or deleting the app, removes the
device code from your device. If you believe we hold something that does identify
you, email us and we will investigate.

### Donations
Donating is entirely optional and unlocks nothing — the whole app is free. In the
iOS app, donations are handled by Apple as in-app purchases; we never see your
payment details. For a refund on an Apple in-app purchase, use Apple's own
process at **reportaproblem.apple.com**, as Apple handles the billing.

### Is this app telling me how to vote?
No, and it never will. It is an educational guide, is not affiliated with any
party, candidate or electoral authority, and summarises complex policies into
single positions. Confirm how to actually cast your vote with your electoral
commission — the in-app "How voting works" guide links to the right one for your
country.

## Accessibility

If something in the app is hard to use with VoiceOver, larger text, or reduced
motion, please tell us at **pierre@goignite.io** and we will fix it.
