Section 3 - Voter Data

3.1 Voter Data

Voter Data Services, as defined below, are subject to the provisions of this Section 3.1. With regard to any Services that include use of or access to voter data files ( such part of the Services, “Voter Data Services”), the VoterDataServicesisanonlineenvironmentcombiningregisteredvoterdata,datamanagementtools,and communications services. These product and services are exclusively available for the purpose of advocacy for electoral candidates, ballot measures, legislative/public interest issues, political parties, and governmental purposes. Under no condition can any component of the Voter Data Services or the voter data contained within it be used for personal or commercial use.

The Voter Data Services is licensed by “Organization Account” subscriptions. A subscription contains voter data for a limited geography as well as program functionality in accordance with the subscription purchase terms. Organization Accounts subscriptions are sold by either election period or calendar year. Subsc ription terms are renewable but extending a single subscription beyond a calendar year must be granted in writing by a PDI sales consultant.

Work conducted and data generated within an Organization Account cannot be viewed or accessed b y another Organization Account without following program’s data sharing protocol.

Each Organization Account is given a single top administrative user account. From this top administrative account, additional user accounts can be created with varying permission levels that should reflect only the tasks and responsibilities assigned to a specific user. Individuals with administrative user account privileges are responsible for limiting the distribution and capabilities of all non-administrative user accounts.

The Voter Data Services includes a wide range of features, data and functionality. Much of which is uniqu e to electoral politics and not found in other mainstream software applications. PDI Support Help page provides comprehensive documentation and support resources for quickly learning how to effectively use the program. PDI support is not responsible for explaining electoral terminology, providing strategic advice, or performing common program tasks.

After the subscription Election Day, Organization Accounts are converted into Post-Election mode where only administrative users are granted system access. Generating output files containing voter data with personally identifiable information is prohibited.

By accessing or using the Voter Data Services, you agree to maintain the confidentiality of any information reflected in any voter data files (sometimes referred to as “voter data”) that are part of the Services, including, without limitation, any personally identifiable information reflected in the voter files, and make all reasonable efforts to restrict access of such information to unauthorized individuals or entities. You also agree to destroy all paper lists or electronic files containing personally identifiable information. Examples of personally identifiabl e information includes, but is not limited to, first name, last name, home or mailing address, email address, phone numbers, and birthdate. The terms of this paragraph shall survive the termination of these Terms.

Account subscribers (i.e. Users or their administrators) are responsible for the misuse of voter data by its employees as well as by a third-party vendor or entity working on its behalf. The preceding sentence shall survive the termination of these Terms . PDI recommends working with the established third-party vendors experienced in managing voter data. Third party vendors should also be required to read and agree to the se Terms.

The confidential voter registration information that is accessible through a Services account is only authorized for use by the subscriber organization. Voter data or any information derived from the Services may not be distributed to another organization.

California state law strictly prohibits the use of voter information for personal or commercial use. The receipt, viewing and use of confidential voter registration information is restricted by the laws and regulations of the state of California including and not limited to Section 6254.4 of the Government Code, Sections 2194, 18109, and 18110 of the Elections Code and Sections 19003, 19004 and 19007 of the California Code of Regulations. RegisteredvoterinformationwillbeusedasdefinedbyTitle2,Division7,Article1,Section19003 oftheCalifornia Code of Regulations, and Elections Code Section 2194 and Government Code Section 6254.4. (For details of the above state laws and regulations visit https://www.sos.ca.gov/administration/regulatio ns/current- regulations/elections/voter-registration/ or http://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/.

Failure to adhere to the terms and conditions of these Terms may, in the sole discretion of PDI, result in the immediate termination of your subscription and possible forfeiture of proprietary data.

ANY VIOLATION OF THESE TERMS WILL BE ENFORCED TO THE FULL EXTENT OF THE LAW.

By purchasing any subscription for the Voter Data Services, you authorize PDI to act as your data vendor. This allows to PDl to contact election officials on behalf of you or your clients to deal with issues relating to the voter file and vote by mail data. You also agree that at any time upon request you will disclose in writing the name of the candidate, committee or elected official that you provide voter information to or on behalf of.

3.2 Voter Data Privacy

California law creates two important exemptions for those working within areas of political free speech, governmental, and legitimate research. These can be found in two key sections of the law

Civil Code Section 1798.105 (d) (4) states in part: A business or a service provider shall not be required to comply with a consumer’s request to delete the consumer’s personal information if it is necessary for the business or service provider to maintain the consumer’s personal information in order to exercise free speech, ensure the right of another consumer to exercise his or her right of free speech, or exercise another right provided for by law.

Civil Code Section 1798.140 (f) states in part: For purposes of this title: “Commercial purposes” means to advance a person’s commercialor economic interests,such as by inducing another person to buy, rent, lease, join, subscribe to, provide, or exchange products, goods, property, information, or services, or enabling or effecting, directly or indirectly, a commercial transaction. “Commercial purposes” do not include for the purpose o f engaging in speech that state or federal courts have recognized as noncommercial speech, including political speech and journalism.

Amendments to the law in 2019 went further in three areas that provide additional protections for PDI clients and how our data is utilized by excluding data legally made available from federal, state or local governments from the provisionswhichapplyto“personalinformation.”(CivilCodeSection1798.140 (O)(2)).Thisfurtherclarifiedthat data such as voter files, political donor data, and other data commonly used by PDI is not subject to the provisions.

These amendments also provided greater clarity by defining “personal information” in a way that exempts de - identified or aggregate consumer data.(Civil Code Section 1798.145 (a)(5)) This is the kind of data utilized by PDI in modeling and other voter targeting, and the amendment expressly excludes this data from the consumer protections under this law.

Section 4 - Support

5.8 Dispute Resolution

Please read this Arbitration Agreement carefully.It is part of your contract with PDI and affects your rights. It contains procedures for MANDATORY BINDING ARBITRATION AND A CLASS ACTION WAIVER.

(a) Applicability of Arbitration Agreement. All claims and disputes (excluding claims for injunctive or other equitable relief as set forth below) in connection with the Terms or the use of any product or service provided by PDI that cannot be resolved informally or in small claims court shall be resolved by binding arbitration on an individual basis under the terms of this Arbitration Agreement. Unless otherwise agreed to, all arbitration proceedings shall be held in English. This Arbitration Agreement applies to you and PDI, and to any subsidiaries, affiliates, agents, employees, predecessors in interest, successors, and assigns, as well as all authorized or unauthorized users or beneficiaries of services or goods provided under the Terms.

(b) Notice Requirement and Informal Dispute Resolution. Before either party may seek arbitration, the party must first send to the other party a written Notice of Dispute ("Notice") describing the nature and basis of the claim or dispute, and the requested relief. A Notice to PDI should be sent to: Political Data Intelligence, LLC. Attention: Disputes, P.O. Box 59570, Norwalk, CA 90652. After the Notice is received, you and PDI may attempt to resolve the claim or dispute informally. If you and PDI do not resolve the claim or dispute within thirty (30) days after the Notice is received, either party may begin an arbitration proceeding. The amount of any settlement offer made by any party may not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator has determined the amount of the award, if any, to which either party is entitled.

(c) Arbitration Rules. Arbitration shall be initiated through the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"), an established alternative dispute resolution provider ("ADR Provider") that offers arbitration as set forth in this section. If AAA is not available to arbitrate, the parties shall agree to select an alternative ADR Provider. The rules of the ADR Provider shall govern all aspects of the arbitration, including but not limited to the metho d of initiating and/or demanding arbitration, except to the extent such rules are in conflict with the Terms. The AAA Consumer Arbitration Rules ("Arbitration Rules") governing the arbitration are available online at www.adr.org or by calling theAAAat1-800-778-7879. Thearbitrationshallbeconductedbyasingle,neutralarbitrator.Anyclaimsor disputeswherethetotalamountoftheawardsoughtislessthanTenThousandU.S.Dollars(US$10,000.00) may be resolved through binding non-appearance-based arbitration, at the option of the party seeking relief. For claimsordisputeswherethetotalamountoftheawardsoughtisTenThousandU.S.Dollars(US$10,000.00) or more, the right to a hearing will be determined by the Arbitration Rules. If required by law, any hearing will be held in a location within 100 miles of your residence, unless you reside outside of the United States, and unless the parties agree otherwise; provided, however, that if not required by law, all hearings shall be conducted in OrangeCounty,California. IfyouresideoutsideoftheU.S.,thearbitratorshallgivethepartiesreasonablenotice of the date, time and place of any oral hearings. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Each party shall bear its own costs (including attorney's fees) and disbursements arising out of the arbitration and shall pay an equal share of the fees and costs of the ADR Provider.

(d) Additional Rules for Non-Appearance Based Arbitration. Non-appearance based arbitration shall be utilized for the arbitration and the arbitration shall be conducted by telephone, online and/or based solely on written submissions; the specific manner shall be chosen by the party initiating the arbitration. The arbitration shall not involve any personal appearance by the parties or witnesses unless otherwise agreed by the parties.

(e) Time Limits. If you or PDI pursue arbitration, the arbitration action must be initiated and/or demanded within the statute of limitations (i.e., the legal deadline for filing a claim) and within any deadline imposed under the AAA Rules for the pertinent claim.

(f) Authority of Arbitrator. If arbitration is initiated, the arbitrator will decide the rights and liabilities, if any, of you and PDI, and the dispute will not be consolidated with any other matters or joined with any other cases or parties. The arbitrator shall have the authority to grant motions dispositive of all or part of any claim. The arbitrator shall havetheauthoritytoawardmonetarydamages,andtograntanynon-monetaryremedyorreliefavailabletoan individualunderapplicablelaw,theAAARules,andtheTerms.Thearbitratorshallissueawrittenawardand statement of decision describing the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based, including the calculation of any damages awarded. The arbitrator has the same authority to award relief o n an individual basis that a judge in a court of law would have. The award of the arbitrator is final and binding upon you and PDI.

(g) Waiver of Jury Trial. THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE THEIR CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO GO TO COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR A JURY, instead electing that all claims and disputes shall be resolved by arbitration under this Arbitration Agreement. Arbitration procedures are typically more limited, more efficient and less costly than rules applicable in a court and are subject to very limited review by a court. In the event any litigation should arise between you and PDI in any state or federal court in a suit to vacate or enforce an arbitration award or otherwise, YOU AND PDI WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL, instead electing that the dispute be resolved by a judge.

(h) Waiver of Class or Consolidated Actions. ALL CLAIMS AND DISPUTES WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT MUST BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS BASI S, AND CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE CUSTOMER OR USER CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED JOINTLY OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER CUSTOMER OR USER.

(i) Limited Period to Bring a Claim Against PDI. Any disputes or claims under these Terms must be brought within one (1) year after the cause of action arises, or such claim or cause of action is barred.

(j) Confidentiality. All aspects of the arbitration proceeding, including but not limited to the award of the arbitrator and compliance therewith, shall be strictly confidential. The parties agree to maintain confidentiality unless otherwise required by law. This paragraph shall not prevent a party from submitting to a court of law any information necessary to enforce these Terms, to enforce an arbitration award, or to seek injunctive or equitable relief.

(k) Severability. If any part or parts of this Arbitration Agreement are found under the law to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, then such specific part or parts shall be of no force and effect and shall be severed and the remainder of the Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.

(l) Right to Waive. Any or all of the rights and limitations set forth in this Arbitration Agreement may be waived by the party against whom the claim is asserted. Such waiver shall not waive or affect any other portion of this Arbitration Agreement.

(m) Survival of Agreement. This Arbitration Agreement will survive the termination of your relationship with PDI.

(n) Small Claims Court. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either you or PDI may bring an individual action in small claims court.

(o) Emergency Equitable Relief. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may seek emergency equitable relief before a state or federal court in order to maintain the status quo pending arbitration. A request for interim measures shall not be deemed a waiver of any other rights or obligations under this Arbitration Agreement.

(p) Claims Not Subject to Arbitration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, claims of defamation, violation of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, and infringement or misappropriation of the other party's patent, copyright, trademark or trade secrets shall not be subject to this Arbitration Agreement.

(q) Courts. In any circumstances where the foregoing Arbitration Agreement permits the parties to litigate in court, the parties hereby agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the courts located within Orange County, California, for such purpose.
