Voters are required to only provide their full name, email address, and payment information.
Why?
Our goal is to make the voting process as fast and simple as possible.
Making voting fast and simple encourages more donations, especially in the last few minutes of your contest.
Our system is designed to minimize any barriers to voting. Family and friends want to support an entry in the contest could be reluctant to give their address, which then becomes a lost opportunity for donations.
That said, all voters have the option to create an account, and during this process they are required to provide all of their contact information (full name, email address, phone number, mailing address).
However, creating an account is not a requirement to vote.
