Terms of use

For the CitizenBacked prelaunch website.

Last updated October 7, 2026

Using this website

These terms apply to your use of the CitizenBacked website and its launch-alert signup. By using the website, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use it.

CitizenBacked is a for-profit startup preparing a platform for citizen-funded lobbying and policy advocacy. This website provides information about that planned service. The contribution, account, and public cause-submission services are not available.

Launch alerts

You may join the launch-alert list by providing an email address you control and consenting to launch and availability notifications. Signup is free and creates no obligation to contribute or purchase a service. You must be at least 18 to join.

You can remove your email using the private removal link shown after signup. Please keep that link and do not share it with others.

Policy information and advocacy

Upcoming priorities describe areas of potential advocacy. Their publication does not mean that a campaign is fundraising, that a lobbying partner has been retained, or that a legislative proposal has been filed. Content may change as we develop the platform.

Contributions, when available, will support advocacy efforts. They will not guarantee that a bill is introduced, receives a vote, becomes law, or achieves any other result. This website does not provide legal, tax, or investment advice.

Future contributions

We do not accept contributions through this website. CitizenBacked plans to retain a percentage of future contributions before funds reach lobbying groups. Commission rates, payment handling, funding thresholds, release conditions, and refund rules have not been finalized.

Any future contribution service will have its own disclosed terms before you can contribute. These terms do not authorize us to collect or transfer money on your behalf. Read our funding information.

Responsible use

Do not use this website to break the law, impersonate another person, submit an email address without permission, send automated or abusive registrations, interfere with availability, or attempt unauthorized access to systems or data. We may restrict access or remove abusive registrations to protect the service.

Website content

You may read, link to, and share publicly available pages for personal and informational purposes. Do not represent CitizenBacked content as your own, imply our endorsement, or use our name or branding in a misleading way. Rights in third-party content remain with its owners.

Availability and external links

We aim to keep information accurate and the site available, but development plans can change and interruptions can occur. External websites have their own terms and privacy practices. A link does not imply an endorsement or partnership.

Privacy

Our privacy policy explains how launch-alert registrations and website technical data are handled.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms as the service develops. We will publish changes on this page and update the date above. New services will be subject to the terms presented when they become available.
