Eunomia

Privacy

Civic participation should not require oversharing. Here is how Eunomia handles resident data.

At a glance

Privacy tiers

Choose public, verified-anonymous, or private for each contribution.

Minimal identity

Residency is verified without publishing your personal details.

Public record

Issue timelines are public by design; personal data is not.

1. Who operates Eunomia

Eunomia is a civic-engagement platform from base2ml. It may be operated by a municipality as an official tool, or run independently on behalf of a community. The operator of a given instance acts as the data controller for that community's records; base2ml acts as the platform provider.

2. Information in the record

Eunomia maintains a public civic ledger of issues and their timelines. The record is designed to hold civic information, not personal information:

  • Issue content: the concern raised, its category, ward, and status history.
  • Support signals: counts of verified residents supporting an issue.
  • Official actions: acknowledgements, referrals, and responses recorded on the timeline.

3. Privacy tiers

Every contribution carries a resident-chosen visibility tier:

  • Public: your display name is attached to the contribution.
  • Verified-anonymous: your contribution counts as a verified resident, but your identity is not published.
  • Private: shared only with the relevant officials, not the public timeline.

4. Residency verification

To keep the record trustworthy, Eunomia confirms that submitters and supporters are real local residents. Verification data is used only to establish eligibility and is not published as part of the public record.

5. How information is used

  • To operate the civic ledger and maintain accurate issue timelines.
  • To route issues to the correct department or official.
  • To generate plain-language meeting summaries and the monthly Civic Pulse report.
  • To prevent abuse and keep participation limited to verified residents.

6. Artificial intelligence

Eunomia uses AI to summarize meetings and assist with routing and duplicate consolidation. The underlying models are swappable per instance, and AI output is presented as an aid to the public record — not a substitute for official responses.

7. Your choices

  • Choose a privacy tier for each contribution.
  • Request correction of inaccurate information about you.
  • Contact the instance operator or base2ml with questions about your data.

8. Contact

Questions about privacy can be directed to privacy@base2ml.com. For a specific municipality's instance, contact that municipality's operator.

A note on transparency

Eunomia's purpose is a trustworthy shared memory. That means the civic record is open, while the personal details of the people who build it stay protected.
