Data & Privacy
Official data is sourced from the Congress.gov API, CourtListener API, and the FEC API — all maintained by U.S. government agencies and updated regularly.
Your ratings and reviews are stored securely. Your email address is never publicly displayed — only the display name you choose appears alongside your contributions. Personal details (state, party, phone, ZIP) are private and never shared.
On tiipstr, peer reviews written by KYC- or KYB-verified authors are visible the moment they're published — even if the named subject hasn't signed up yet. We call this surface a shadow profile: a searchable, unclaimed page that lets verified voices be heard while still giving the named subject multiple paths to act (Claim it, Disavow a misrouted contact, suggest a Correction, or Report). Contact info on a shadow profile is always masked, never shown in plaintext.
Disclaimer: Politiips is an independent platform operated by Adroit DRX, LLC and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to the U.S. Government, Congress, or any political party. Ratings and reviews represent individual user opinions and do not constitute official assessments of any public official.
