Privacy Notice

2026 ImpeachmentTracker is an independent civic project under Pinoys Against Corruption. It acts as the personal information controller for the public claim-and-evidence index published at https://impeachment.pinoysagainstcorruption.com. It is not affiliated with any government body, court, political party, campaign, or media organization.

Privacy and data subject requests go to [email protected]. The DPO contact number is 0976 393 2927. A postal address will be added after operator registration details are finalized.

The tracker documents an official public proceeding: the impeachment trial of Vice President Sara Duterte before the Senate. Public pages may include these categories of personal data, limited to what is necessary for the proceeding record:

• Names, official roles, titles, side labels, and institutional affiliations.
• Statements, filings, rulings, votes, and evidence references made public in the proceeding.
• Source links, timestamps, transcript-status labels, and revision notes tied to a claim.

The site does not publish private contact details, home addresses, government ID numbers, signatures, account credentials, private family details, or standalone searchable profiles of private individuals. Private individuals are referenced only where the public proceeding record makes the reference necessary.

Data is sourced from official public records, public livestreams or VODs of the proceeding, official government releases, court or audit records, public statements, and major news reporting used for context and cross-checking.

The purpose is public accountability, civic education, historical documentation, and claim-evidence indexing for a public-interest proceeding. Processing is kept to the minimum necessary for that purpose and is reviewed under transparency, legitimate purpose, and proportionality principles.

The project relies, as applicable, on legitimate interests under Section 12(f) of the DPA, public-record and public-officer official-function considerations, journalistic or research/public-benefit purposes, and the establishment, exercise, or defense of lawful rights and interests in proceedings.

Because this site is publicly accessible without login, personal data hosted here may be manually or automatically extracted by third parties. We do not authorize scraping that bypasses technical restrictions, misrepresents the scraper, collects excessive data, profiles people for unrelated purposes, republishes private individuals out of context, or violates the Data Privacy Act, NPC issuances, or this site's stated purpose.

Known authorized third-party scrapers: none. Search engines may crawl public pages for indexing subject to standard web controls.

• Public API responses expose only editor-reviewed, published claims.
• Private draft data, unresolved speakers, and internal review queues are not public.
• Cloudflare and server logs may be used for rate limiting, abuse detection, and IP blocking.
• Robots and caching controls may be adjusted to reduce unauthorized bulk extraction.
• Potential privacy incidents are reviewed under the site's breach-response procedure.

• No accounts and no sign-in.
• No tracking cookies and no advertising scripts.
• Standard technical logs may include IP address, browser user-agent, page requested, and timestamps for security, debugging, and abuse prevention. Logs are not used to profile visitors.

If you are a data subject under RA 10173, you may request access, correction, objection, erasure/blocking, or termination of a processing activity where the law allows it. Send the page link, the data at issue, your requested action, and a source or explanation to [email protected].

We aim to evaluate valid privacy and opt-out requests within 5 to 7 business days. Requests concerning private individuals are prioritized. You may also complain directly to the National Privacy Commission at privacy.gov.ph.

Factual corrections that are not privacy requests should use Corrections & takedown requests.

The public claim-and-evidence record is maintained as a civic archive of the proceeding. Corrections are applied in place with visible notes where supported; we do not silently rewrite the record. Privacy request logs are kept only as long as needed for accountability and legal compliance.
