Agreement
By accessing Pachand at pachand.com or creating an account, you agree to these Terms of Use and our Legal & Privacy page. If you do not agree, do not use the service.
The service
Pachand offers FEC committee tracking, aggregate funding by ZIP, visualization, filing alerts, data export, and related campaign intelligence features. Features may change during our v1 launch period. Invite-only access may apply.
Accounts
- You must provide accurate registration information.
- You are responsible for safeguarding your credentials.
- Invite codes are single-use licenses issued at our discretion; sharing or reselling access without permission is prohibited.
- One person or organization may not create multiple accounts to evade limits, billing, or suspension.
Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- Use the service for unlawful purposes or to violate FEC or other applicable rules.
- Scrape, reverse engineer, or overload our systems beyond normal product use.
- Resell, sublicense, or republish bulk data obtained through the service without written permission.
- Harass, impersonate, or misrepresent affiliation with Pachand or the FEC.
Users may not use this service to solicit contributions, create contributor contact lists, enrich donor databases, target individual contributors, or market products or services to individuals identified in FEC records.
Data accuracy
Public FEC and third-party data may contain delays, corrections, or errors. Alerts, maps, and summaries are provided for informational purposes only. You are responsible for verifying figures before making compliance, fundraising, or strategic decisions. Pachand does not provide legal, compliance, or financial advice.
Large-donation alerts and contribution exports show ZIP-level aggregates only. Donor names, mailing addresses, and employer/occupation fields from underlying FEC filings are intentionally omitted from the product, and itemized contribution exports are disabled. You agree not to use the service to reconstruct, scrape, or republish individual donor identity data beyond what Pachand displays.
Billing
Paid plans are billed through Stripe according to the pricing shown at signup or on our website. Subscriptions renew until cancelled. Refunds are handled according to our launch policies and applicable law. We may change pricing for new subscribers with notice; existing Early Adopter locked rates remain as described at signup.
Suspension & termination
We may suspend or terminate access for violation of these terms, non-payment, abuse, or to protect the service. You may cancel at any time through billing settings or by contacting support.
Disclaimer of warranties
THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.
Limitation of liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, PACHAND AND ITS OPERATORS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, OR GOODWILL, ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM RELATING TO THE SERVICE IS LIMITED TO THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US IN THE TWELVE MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM.
Changes
We may update these terms. Material changes will be posted on this page with an updated date. Continued use after changes constitutes acceptance.
