El Pleno is a personal, free, nonprofit project. It has no economic activity: it sells nothing, charges nothing, has no ads or sponsors and receives no money of any kind.
That is why no tax ID or mailing address appears here. If El Pleno ever started an economic activity (for example donations, sponsorship or ads), we would publish on this page, before starting, all the identification details required by Article 10 of Spanish Law 34/2002 on information society services and e-commerce (LSSI-CE).
What El Pleno is
El Pleno explains in plain language what happens in the Spanish Cortes Generales: which bills are moving, what is voted on and how each deputy and senator votes. Every fact links to its official source.
El Pleno is not an official site. It has no connection with the Congress of Deputies, the Senate, the Official State Gazette (BOE), the Government or any party, and none of them endorses it. It takes no sides and asks no one to vote for anyone.
Official data and how we reuse it
Data about bills, votes and representatives is public sector information that the Congress, the Senate and the BOE publish as open data. We reuse it under Spanish Law 37/2007 on the reuse of public sector information and each institution’s conditions: we cite the source, link to the original, show the date of the last download and do not change its meaning.
The official text always prevails over what we show. If you see a difference, it is our mistake: tell us at [email protected].
Photos of deputies and senators are the official ones from each chamber. We only crop them into a circle; we do not apply filters or retouch them.
Text, design and name
El Pleno’s own content (explanations, summaries, design, logo and website code) belongs to its controller. You may quote it and link to it freely, saying it comes from El Pleno. For other uses, write to us.
Official data still belongs to its institutions, under their own conditions. The province map uses boundaries from Spain’s National Geographic Institute (CC BY 4.0).
The passkey icon is a trademark of FIDO Alliance, Inc., used under license.
Links to other sites
We link to the official sources and a few other sites. We do not control their content or privacy policies, and a link does not mean we endorse them.
Liability
We work to keep everything accurate and up to date, but the data comes from outside sources that may contain errors or delays, and El Pleno may fail or become unavailable. For any decision with legal effects, always check the official source.
The rest is in the terms of use, the privacy policy and the cookie policy.
Governing law
This site is governed by Spanish law. If you are a consumer, you may go to the courts where you live.
