What is HaleLog?

HaleLog is a public platform that publishes one question every 24 hours to capture community sentiment at a specific moment in time.

Each poll:

• Is open for exactly 24 hours
• Accepts one vote per person
• Publishes results only after closing
• Is archived permanently

HaleLog is designed to record opinions — not to influence or debate them.

How voting works

• A single public question is published daily.
• You select one of the available options.
• Your vote is recorded and locked.
• Results are revealed only after the poll closes.
• The poll is archived as a historical snapshot.
• Votes cannot be changed once submitted.

Why results are hidden until closing

Results are intentionally hidden during the voting period to:

• Prevent herd behavior
• Reduce social pressure
• Preserve independent judgment

This ensures that each vote reflects the voter’s own perspective.

One vote per person

HaleLog enforces a strict one vote per person, per poll rule.

This may involve:

• Anonymous identifiers
• Session controls
• Abuse-prevention mechanisms

Any attempt to bypass this rule may result in vote invalidation or access restriction.

Archived polls

Once a poll closes:

• It becomes read-only
• Results are publicly visible
• It remains accessible in the Archive indefinitely

Archived polls represent how people responded at that specific time, not a permanent truth.

Neutrality

• HaleLog is neutral by design.
• Questions are not endorsements.
• Results reflect aggregated responses only.
• HaleLog does not promote any viewpoint or agenda.
