Privacy Policy

Effective Date: September 11, 2026

INTRODUCTION: THE NO-BS PRIVACY PLEDGE

Let’s get one thing straight right out of the gate: we despise data brokers, we hate political tracking, and we are sick of corporations treating your personal life like a commodity to be bought and sold.

US United was built for the good of the nation, not to harvest your data for Silicon Valley or Washington D.C. This Privacy Policy explains exactly what information we collect, why we need it, and, more importantly, what we absolutely refuse to do with it.

By using our website, joining our live chats, buying our satire apparel, or becoming a member, you agree to the data practices described in this policy. If you want a platform that tracks your every move to serve you hyper-targeted political ads, you’re in the wrong place.

1. WHAT WE COLLECT (AND WHY WE NEED IT)

We only collect the bare minimum amount of information required to run this organization, ship your gear, and keep the trolls out of our community.

1.1. Account & Membership Information: When you sign up for a membership (Citizen, Advocate, or Backbone), we ask for:

  • An Email Address: So, we can send you login links, membership receipts, and our unfiltered weekly newsletter.
  • A Username/Pseudonym: We encourage you to use a handle that protects your real-world identity in our member-to-member chats.
  • A Password: Hashed and encrypted. We don’t know what it is, and we will never ask you for it.


1.2. Payment and Shipping Information:
If you buy our political satire apparel or upgrade to a paid membership tier, we need to get paid and ship your stuff.

  • Billing Details: We use secure, third-party payment processors (like Stripe or PayPal). We do not store your full credit card numbers on our servers. We only keep a transaction ID and the last four digits of your card for receipt and refund purposes.
  • Shipping Address: If you order apparel, we need to know where to send it. We only use this to fulfill your order and generate shipping labels.


1.3. Technical and Usage Data:
To keep the site from crashing and to stop automated bots from spamming our forums, our servers automatically collect basic technical data:

  • IP addresses (anonymized where possible).
  • Browser type and device information.
  • Basic log data (pages visited, time spent on site).
2. WHAT WE REFUSE TO DO (THE IRONCLAD PROMISE)

This is the most important section of this document. Read it carefully.

  • WE DO NOT SELL YOUR DATA. We will never sell, rent, or lease your personal information to data brokers, marketers, or third-party advertisers. Period.
  • WE DO NOT SHARE WITH POLITICIANS. We will never share your data with political campaigns, Political Action Committees (PACs), political parties, or lobbyists. We are actively excluding these people from our platform; we certainly aren’t feeding them your data.
  • WE DO NOT USE CREEPY AD TRACKERS. You won’t follow us around the internet seeing retargeting ads for our t-shirts. We don’t use invasive cross-site tracking pixels.
3. OPERATOR ANONYMITY AND LEGAL SHIELDING

You’ve probably noticed we don’t have an “About the Founders” page with our headshots and bios. That’s intentional.

3.1. Why We Stay Anonymous: The individuals operating US United remain anonymous to the public to protect ourselves from political retaliation, doxxing, and harassment, and to ensure the focus remains entirely on the mission and the citizens, not on our personal brands.

3.2. How We Handle Legal Compliance: While we operate anonymously in the public sphere, we do not operate outside the law. To maintain our privacy while complying with Washington State and federal regulations:

  • We operate through a legally registered corporate entity (e.g., an LLC or Non-Profit Corporation) in Spokane, Washington.
  • We use a commercial Registered Agent service to receive official legal mail and state correspondence.
  • Our operators’ personal names and home addresses are shielded from public scraping and casual searches.
  • The Exception: We will only disclose the identities of our operators to government authorities if strictly compelled by a valid, legally binding court order or subpoena, and only after exhausting all legal avenues to fight or narrow that request.
4. GOVERNMENT REQUESTS AND SUBPOENAS

We are a free-speech organization. We expect that our criticism of political leadership might draw the ire of people in power.

If a government agency, law enforcement body, or political entity demands your data or the identities of our anonymous operators, we will fight it. We will not hand over your information unless we are forced to do so by a judge with proper jurisdiction and a valid warrant or subpoena.

If we are legally forced to turn over data, and if the law permits us to do so, we will notify you first so you have the opportunity to seek legal counsel and file a motion to quash the request. We’ve got your back.

5. THE COMMUNITY: CHATS, FORUMS, AND LIVE VIDEO

Our member-to-member live chats and live video Q&As with the founder are designed to be raw, unfiltered, and adult-oriented. Because of this, you need to take responsibility for your own privacy within the community.

5.1. Don’t Dox Yourself If you jump into a live chat and voluntarily post your real name, your home address, your phone number, or your employer, that is on you. We cannot scrub the internet of information you willingly broadcast to hundreds of other people. Use a pseudonym. Keep your personal life personal.

5.2. Live Video and Audio Sessions When you join a live video or audio session with the founder:

  • We may record the session internally for quality assurance, moderation, and to review community feedback.
  • We will never broadcast, publish, or distribute recordings that include your face, voice, or username to the public or external platforms without your explicit, written consent.
  • The founder will remain anonymous (using audio-only or avatar/video-mask formats) to maintain operational security.
6. THIRD-PARTY SERVICES

We can’t build a modern digital platform entirely from scratch, so we rely on a few trusted third-party services to keep the lights on. We only partner with companies that have strict data security standards. These include:

  • Hosting & Security: Cloudflare and AWS (to keep the site fast and block DDoS attacks).
  • E-commerce & Payments: Shopify and Stripe (to process apparel orders and membership dues securely).
  • Email Delivery: A secure transactional email provider (to ensure our newsletters actually reach your inbox and not your spam folder).

These providers only get the exact data they need to perform their specific service, and they are legally bound to keep it secure.

7. DATA SECURITY: REAL TALK

We use industry-standard security measures to protect your data. We use SSL/TLS encryption for data in transit, and we encrypt sensitive data at rest. We enforce strict access controls so that only authorized personnel (which is a very small, vetted team) can access backend databases.

But here is the reality check: No system on the internet is 100% hack-proof. If a state-sponsored actor or a highly sophisticated hacking syndicate decides to target our servers, there is always a risk. If a breach occurs that compromises your personal data, we will notify you immediately via email and post a prominent notice on the site. We won’t cover it up.

8. YOUR PRIVACY RIGHTS (PULLING THE PLUG)

You own your data. If you decide that US United isn’t for you, you have the right to walk away and take your information with you.

8.1. The Right to Delete: You can request the deletion of your account and personal data at any time. Simply email our privacy team (address below) or use the “Delete My Account” button in your dashboard. We will permanently scrub your personal data from our active databases within 30 days. (Note: We may be required by law to retain basic transaction records for tax and accounting purposes for a set number of years, but this data is archived and isolated).

8.2. State-Specific Rights (CCPA/CPRA, etc.): If you live in California, Colorado, Virginia, or other states with comprehensive privacy laws, you have additional rights, including the right to know exactly what data we have on you and the right to opt-out of any data “sharing” (though, as stated in Section 2, we don’t share or sell your data anyway). To exercise these rights, contact us using the details at the bottom of this page.

9. STRICTLY 18+ (NO KIDS ALLOWED)

US United deals with adult-oriented political satire, unfiltered free speech, and harsh criticisms of government actions. Our platform is strictly for users aged 18 and older.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 18. If we discover that a minor has bypassed our age gate and created an account, we will immediately terminate the account and delete their data. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us immediately so we can nuke the account.

10. CHANGES TO THIS POLICY

The political landscape changes fast, and privacy laws change with it. We may need to update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect new legal requirements or changes to our platform.

When we make material changes, we will update the “Effective Date” at the top of this page and post a clear notice on our homepage or send an email to our members. Your continued use of the platform after the changes go into effect means you accept the new rules.

11. CONTACT US

We believe in transparency regarding our practices, even if we maintain anonymity regarding our identities. If you have questions about this Privacy Policy, want to exercise your data rights, or need to report a privacy concern, reach out to us.

  • Mailing Address (Registered Agent): [Insert the Mailing Address]

We are building a movement to remind this country what it means to be indivisible. We are challenging the political establishment. And we are doing it while respecting your fundamental right to privacy.

For the good of the nation.
