Create an account

Canadian Political Data uses passwordless sign-in. There is no password to remember, no password to leak. The flow is the same whether you're creating an account for the first time or signing back in.

How it works

  1. Go to the sign-in page.
  2. Enter your email address.
  3. We send you a one-time link. Click it within 15 minutes.
  4. You're signed in. The session lasts 30 days of inactivity, after which you'll get another link the next time you visit.

That's the whole flow. There is no separate "register" step — the first time you sign in with a new email, an account is created for you.

Trouble receiving the email?

  • Check your spam folder. Magic links come from noreply@thebunkerops.ca (or whichever address the operator has configured).
  • Wait 60 seconds before requesting another. The system rate-limits to protect against abuse.
  • If your address belongs to a custom domain with strict DMARC, ask your mail admin to allow our sending domain.

What we store

  • Your email address.
  • The timestamp of your most recent sign-in.
  • Any saved searches and reports you create.
  • A running tally of credits you've purchased, earned, or spent.

We do not store passwords (we don't have any), social-login tokens (we don't support those), IP-derived location, or browsing history outside the features you explicitly use.

What we don't do

  • No social login. Signing in with Google / Facebook / GitHub leaks your research interests to ad platforms — wrong trust model for a civic transparency tool. Email magic links only.
  • No password export. There is nothing to export.
  • No third-party trackers. The site is not instrumented for ad retargeting.

Signing out

Use the account menu in the top-right corner. Signing out clears the session on the device you're using. Other signed-in devices remain signed in until their own 30-day window elapses, or until you change your email.

To sign every device out at once, contact us — we can rotate your session key.

Deleting your account

Email admin@thebunkerops.ca from the address on the account. We'll confirm before deleting and remove your record, saved searches, and report history. Hansard speech data is public and remains in the corpus regardless.
