This **Digital Commons Pledge Form** template helps advocacy groups, tech cooperatives, digital rights organizations, and community networks gather meaningful commitments from supporters who believe in data sovereignty, platform cooperativism, and resistance to surveillance capitalism. Whether you're launching a digital rights campaign, building a platform cooperative, organizing around data justice, or creating a community-owned tech alternative, this template captures detailed pledge commitments while educating signatories about the principles they're supporting. The form collects contact information, organizational affiliations, specific commitment areas, and allows pledgers to indicate how they'd like to contribute to the movement. **Paperform makes it effortless to build movements for digital justice.** The doc-style editor lets you craft compelling narratives around each pledge commitment, embed educational content, and create a sign-up experience that matches the values of transparency and user agency you're advocating for. Conditional logic ensures pledgers only see relevant follow-up questions based on their capacity and interests. Once someone signs your digital commons pledge, you can use **Stepper** (stepper.io) to automate the post-pledge journey—send welcome emails with resources about digital sovereignty, add supporters to your advocacy CRM, trigger different onboarding sequences for individual versus organizational pledges, or create tasks for your organizing team to follow up with high-capacity volunteers. You can even use **Papersign** (papersign.com) to collect formal eSignatures on more binding cooperative membership agreements or data trust governance documents. This template is ideal for digital rights activists, platform cooperative organizers, tech justice advocates, community network builders, and anyone working to create alternatives to extractive digital platforms. With Paperform's integration ecosystem, you can connect pledges directly to organizing tools like Action Network, NationBuilder, or your preferred CRM, keeping your movement infrastructure aligned and your community engaged.
