Privacy policy

What this notice is about

On two pages on the website, you can leave personal details: the volunteering page and the contact page. This notice explains what is done with them, to whom they are transferred, and what rights are held by anyone who provided them. It was written in accordance with Section 11 of the Protection of Privacy Law, 5741-1981, as worded following Amendment 13, which entered into force on 14 August 2025.

The notice applies to these two forms, and also to the Meta Pixel loaded on all pages of the website — which has its own section below. Apart from these, the website's pages ask nothing of you.

The two forms differ from each other in one central respect, and it is worth knowing before reading further: details provided in the volunteering form are transferred to one party that you choose, whereas a message sent in the contact form is not transferred to any party. Each of them has its own section below.

Providing details is voluntary

There is no legal obligation to provide the details. Providing them depends on your wish and consent alone.

If you choose not to provide them, you will not lose anything and you can continue to read every page on the website. The only implication is that we will not be able to forward your enquiry to any party, and no one will contact you regarding volunteering — and in the contact form, that we will not be able to read what you wished to convey.

Why the details are requested

In the volunteering form, the sole purpose is to transfer your details to one party, the one you choose, so that it can contact you regarding volunteering ahead of the elections to the Knesset to be held on Tuesday, 27 October 2026.

In the contact form, the sole purpose is so that the joint headquarters can read your message and get back to you regarding it, if required.

The details are not used for any other purpose. They are not sold, rented, or transferred to any party — except for the transfer of a volunteer's details to the party they chose, which is the entire purpose of the volunteering form, and the services that operate the forms and spreadsheets, Tally and Google, detailed below.

Who is responsible for the information

The controller of the database is the joint headquarters of the list, established for the election to the Knesset on 27 October 2026. Its contact person is מאוריסיו לפצ׳יק.

The postal address of the joint headquarters is the registered address of Hadash: אחד העם 70, תל אביב.

What exactly is submitted in the volunteer form

These are all the details requested by the form, and none besides them:

The choice of party is information about political opinion. The law defines such information as information of special sensitivity, and applies stricter protection to it than to ordinary information. You choose the party on the website before the form opens: each party has its own form, and therefore the form you filled in is itself the choice of a single party.

The form itself is operated on the Tally service, of the company Tally BV from Belgium. The details are stored with it, in the joint headquarters' account, on servers in Europe, and are encrypted. In addition to the fields above, the time of submission is recorded.

Like any internet service, Tally processes the requests that your browser sends to it, including the IP address. What it retains of them and for how long is subject to its privacy policy and not to this policy. Tally uses service providers of its own, some of them in the United States, including Sentry, an error-tracking service that the form page contacts.

Who the details are provided to

The details are provided to one party only, the one you select on the form, in order to contact you regarding volunteering. They are not provided to the other two parties. The three parties running on the list are:

From Tally, the details are copied to a Google Sheets spreadsheet of the party you chose, which only it is authorised to read.

There is no option to choose without a preference, and this is deliberate. Transferring a person's details to three parties without them requesting it is precisely what the law is intended to prevent, and choosing a single party is what makes the consent explicit.

From the moment the details have been transferred to the party you chose, the party itself is responsible for them and its own privacy policy is what applies to them from that point onwards.

Enquiries regarding privacy to any of the three parties can be sent to the same address: אחד העם 70, תל אביב.

The contact form

The form on the "Contact Us" page requests only four things: full name, telephone, email, and the message itself. Apart from these, the submission time is recorded. This form is also operated on Tally, as described above.

A message sent via this form is not delivered to any of the three parties. It is stored in Tally, in the account of the joint headquarters, and copied to a Google Sheets spreadsheet that only the headquarters contact person, מאוריסיו לפצ׳יק, is authorised to read, so that it can be read and replied to.

The content of the message is whatever you choose to write in it. We do not ask for sensitive details in it and we do not need them; if you choose to write such details in it, they will be kept as part of the message and deleted together with it.

Messages are retained for the same period as volunteer details — up to six months after election day — and are then deleted. The rights detailed below apply to them in full: you can review a message that was sent, request to correct it, and request to delete it.

The website does not guarantee a response to a message, nor does it guarantee a timeframe. For routine activity, it is better to contact the parties directly, as stated at the top of the contact page.

How long the details are kept

The copies held by the joint headquarters, in Tally and in spreadsheets, are kept for up to six months after election day, that is, until 27 April 2027, and are then deleted. This period is intended to allow responding to enquiries and queries that arise after the election — for example, a request for review, a request for deletion, or a question from someone who provided details and was not contacted.

The deletion is an actual deletion, not a hiding: the record is deleted from Tally and from the spreadsheet, including its version history. Tally deletes a deleted record from its backups as well, within 90 days.

What has already been determined: on election day, both forms will be closed, and the website will continue to serve information pages only. Closing a form does not delete details that have already been submitted — that is what this section is for.

Details that have already been transferred to the party you chose are not deleted in this deletion. From the moment of transfer, they are the responsibility of that party, and its privacy policy is what applies to them.

Your rights

Under section 13 of the law, every person is entitled to inspect the personal information held about them in a database. The law explicitly provides that inspection will be permitted in Hebrew, Arabic or English.

Under section 14 of the law, anyone who has inspected the information and found it to be incorrect, incomplete, unclear or out of date may request that it be corrected or deleted.

You can also withdraw your consent at any time and request that you no longer be contacted.

To exercise these rights, contact mauricio@jointlist.org.il, or by post to אחד העם 70, תל אביב.

Under section 13(b) of the law, inspection will be permitted in Hebrew, Arabic or English — in each of the three languages.

The Meta pixel

To help the campaign reach more people, the website loads a pixel from Meta, the company that operates Facebook and Instagram. It measures how many people arrive at the website from our adverts, and allows the list's adverts to be shown to those who have already shown an interest in it. For this purpose, Meta receives information about the visit, such as the pages you visited, and processes it according to its privacy policy. The pixel does not see what you write in forms, and the joint headquarters does not receive identifying details about visitors from Meta. If you prefer not to, an ad blocker in your browser blocks it as well.

What the website does not do

Apart from the Meta pixel, there are no measurement or advertising services on the website: neither Google Analytics nor Google Ads.

Apart from the Meta pixel and the forms, the website does not load fonts, scripts or images from third-party servers, and does not plant cookies in your browser. On the contact page, and on the volunteering page after you have chosen a party, the form and its script are loaded from Tally, and the form page operates according to Tally's privacy policy.

There are no donations on this website. Each of the three parties raises funds independently, and the website does not collect payment methods or transfer funds.

The voter registry does not reach this website and is not stored on it. The flow of information is in one direction only: from the person who chose to volunteer to the party they chose, and never in the opposite direction.

The forms do not save what you typed on your device. Tally's option to save a form halfway through and continue later is turned off across all forms, intentionally, so that nothing remains on a shared device.

And finally, regarding requests for the website's pages themselves: the website is hosted on the Cloudflare service, and is served as files only — it contains no code running at the time of the request, no logging of requests activated by the joint headquarters, and no transmission of request logs to the joint headquarters. As the infrastructure service serving the pages, Cloudflare processes the requests and holds its own statistical data; what it retains and for how long is subject to its policy and not to this policy, and does not reach the joint headquarters.
