between Chuffed.org Pty Ltd ("Chuffed" or "we" or "us")
and
the user of this website ("you" or "User")

Last updated: 17 March 2022

1. Introduction

1.1       Welcome to Chuffed (chuffed.org) (the "Website") and its associated services are operated by Chuffed.org Pty Ltd (ABN 24 608 395 393) ("Chuffed" or "we" or "us"). These terms  ("Terms of Service") govern your use of the Website and its associated services.

1.2       The Website is an online platform where people and organisations ("Social Ventures") can campaign and raise funds for projects to benefit social, community or charitable causes ("Social Projects") and where Supporters can donate money ("Donation") to support those Social Projects.

1.3       Please read these Terms of Service carefully. If you do not wish to be bound by these Terms of Service, you should not continue to use or access the Website or its associated services.

1.4       You acknowledge and agree that you have read and understood these Terms of Service and you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service each time you use the Website.

1.5       If you are accessing the Website in order to create a Social Project, you agree to these Terms of Service both personally and on behalf of your Social Venture as its authorised representative. If you are not authorised to accept these Terms of Service for your Social Venture, you must not submit a Social Project to the Website on its behalf.

1.6       These Terms of Service may change or be updated from time to time. Chuffed will post updates to the Terms of Service on the Website from time to time. You must check for updates whenever you access the Website. The latest version of these Terms of Service will govern any usage by you of the Website and its associated services from the date we post the revised version on the Website.

2. Terms for Supporters

Donating to a Social Project: General

2.1       You make your Donation to a Social Project, not to Chuffed - we introduce Supporters to Social Ventures and their Social Projects. Following your Donation to the Social Project, the Social Venture will transfer any amounts owing to Chuffed directly to us. Donations can be made via PayPal or credit or debit card or direct debit. All PayPal Donations are processed by PayPal under the terms of your agreement with PayPal. All credit and debit card and direct debit Donations are processed by Stripe or Stripe Connect (our other "payment providers") in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Transaction fees apply (see clauses 2.16 and 2.17 below for more information).

2.2       Donations are subject to a minimum of $1.00 per Donation. Donations will be processed in the currency which is indicated on the payment page. You may be able to change this currency. If your payment card or PayPal or bank account is in a different currency, conversion fees may apply, and may be charged to you by your financial institution. Donations can be made at any time from the start of a campaign up to the Funding Deadline for time limited campaigns. For time limited campaigns, once the Funding Deadline expires, no new Donations can be made via the Website.

2.3       Chuffed will not pursue Supporters for uncollected Donations. It is the responsibility of a Social Venture to contact any Supporters who have pledged or attempted a Donation but whose payment has failed, and to ask them to provide an alternative payment method.

2.4       Donations to a campaign will be charged to your PayPal account or credit or debit card or bank account at the time you make your Donation. PayPal and Stripe Connect Donations will be paid to the Social Venture's PayPal account or Stripe account at or around the time of your Donation. Any amounts indicated as a Contribution to Chuffed will be transferred by the Social Ventures to Chuffed at or near the time of transaction.

Changes to and cancellations of Donations

2.10       You may not cancel a Donation (even if a Social Project has reached or exceeded its Fundraising Target before the Fundraising Deadline) once your Payment has been collected. If you wish to increase your support for a Social Project after your Donation has been processed, you must make a further Donation. However, no new Donations can be accepted for a Social Project once its Funding Deadline has passed. Regular Donations will continue to transact at the chosen frequency after the Funding Deadline has passed.

2.11       Social Ventures may cancel or refund a Supporter’s Donation at any time at their discretion and for any reason. They may only do this outside the Chuffed platform. If all Donations to a Social Project are refunded, they are not required to continue with the Social Project.

2.12       If you disagree with how a Social Project has used your Donation, you should raise this with the Social Venture, not with us.

Further support for Social Projects

2.13       Supporters may be invited by a Social Venture to assist in promoting a Social Project online (e.g., by spreading the word on Facebook, Twitter or email) and/or by word of mouth. If you choose to do so, you must comply with all lawful instructions, guidelines and requirements imposed by the Social Venture when doing so. Failure to comply may lead to suspension or, in serious cases, termination of your User account.

2.14       The Website is not currently able to, or intended to, offer real-life volunteering opportunities with Social Ventures. Requests for volunteers on a Social Project page should be reported to Chuffed immediately.

2.15       Chuffed takes no responsibility for the acts, omissions and communications of Users in promoting or engaging with a Social Project, or not.

Contributions to Chuffed and transaction fees

2.16       Registering on Chuffed is free but, when you Donate to a Social Project you may be asked to nominate an amount that is a contribution to Chuffed ("Contribution"), in addition to your Donation to the Social Project. The total Contribution shown on the payment page will include all transaction fees applicable to your Donation. Transaction fees are charged by PayPal or our other payment providers; the balance of the Contribution will be transferred from the Social Venture to Chuffed.

2.17       You may amend the amount of your Contribution. The smallest amount you can choose is zero. Transaction fees may vary depending on region and other factors. The minimum transaction fee payable for all transactions is $0.20 plus 2.0% of the value of the payment.

2.18       PayPal and our other payment providers process Contributions made via PayPal or debit or credit card at or around the time when your Donation is processed. Donations made via direct debit may take 5-10 days to process.

2.19       Unfortunately, we are not able to refund any part of a Contribution (including transaction fees) if your Donation is returned because a Social Project is cancelled or for any other reason.

Perks

2.20       In some cases, a Social Venture may offer Supporters a Perk as a "thank you" for donating to their Social Project. Please see clause 3.8 below for further details. You acknowledge and accept that, in a small proportion of cases, despite careful planning by a Social Venture, in certain unforeseen circumstances that Social Venture may be unable to deliver these perks. In such circumstances you acknowledge that delivery or lack of delivery of the perk is a matter between you and the Social Venture, and that responsibility for delivery of the perk is solely that of the Social Venture.

Tax deductions and receipts

2.21       When you make a donation, you will receive a receipt from us for the amount of your donation. In some cases donations made to a Social Venture will be tax deductible, but in other cases the donation may not be tax deductible.

2.22       It is your responsibility to confirm whether a Social Venture has the appropriate legal status to allow you to claim a tax deduction. It is also your responsibility to determine whether any perks received in exchange for your donation will prevent you from claiming your donation as a tax deduction.

2.23       In exchange for being allowed to use the Website, you agree that we will not be liable for any unpaid tax, interest, fines, penalties or any other claims against you in relation to the tax deductibility of your donation. You also agree to indemnify us against any claim made against us in relation to the tax deductibility of your donation.

Perks

3.8       You may offer to provide non-monetary incentives to Supporters as part of a Social Project campaign ("Perks"), although you are not obliged to do so. You may offer one or more Perks per Social Project and may set qualifying Donation criteria for each Perk (for example, a different Donation threshold for each Perk).

3.9       You agree that Chuffed has the right, but not the obligation, to remove Perks which you wish to offer.

3.10       You represent and warrant in favour of Supporters and us that:

i.       you will provide Perks to each Supporter who met your qualifying criteria for such Perks and who nominated that they wish to obtain a perk as at the time of making his or her Donation (and whose Donation has not subsequently been cancelled or refunded), irrespective of whether you reach your Fundraising Target;

ii.       you will deliver Perks promptly after receiving the Donation from the Supporter, or substantially in line with any estimated delivery date you have provided to the Supporter;

iii.       at the time of posting the Social Project on the Website and until all Perks are provided to qualifying Supporters, you have and will maintain sufficient funds on hand to provide any and all Perks offered; and

iv.       you will not provide to the Supporter, us or any other person any benefit in respect of a Donation other than the provision of the Perk to the Supporter and the fulfilment of the Social Project.

3.11       Offering financial products, securities or other proprietary interests or rewards, such as ownership, financial returns (e.g. profit share), cash and cash equivalents, or Donation repayments is prohibited. Breach of this prohibition is likely to result in a contravention of the fundraising laws of Australia contained in the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth).

3.12       Chuffed does not represent, warrant or guarantee that the offering of Perks will be legally permissible in all cases, nor that offering such Perks will not affect an organisation's charitable, non-profit or other status or taxation position. It is your responsibility to determine whether you are legally permitted to provide such Perks or whether doing so would compromise your status, or affect your liability to collect or pay taxes.

Charge Backs

3.13       You acknowledge and agree that in some circumstances (such as fraud or error), Chuffed and its payment providers may be required to reverse a Payment made via the Website ("charge back"). If you are a Social Venture, you agree to indemnify Chuffed for all losses, costs and expenses it incurs as a result of a charge back associated with your Social Project (including all fees charged by our payment providers associated with that charge back)("Charge Back Amount"). You agree that Chuffed may set-off the Charge Back Amount against any amount owed to you by Chuffed, including from Donations held on your behalf in your or Chuffed's bank account, Stripe accounts, or PayPal accounts. In cases of suspected fraud, Chuffed may refund some or all of your donations without notice.

4.12       All PayPal Donations and Contributions are processed via PayPal. Your use of PayPal's services is subject to your agreement with PayPal.

Tax-Deductible Giving

4.13       Donations and Contributions made via Chuffed may or may not be tax deductible for taxation purposes.

4.14       It is your sole responsibility to determine the taxation consequences, if any, of making or receiving a Donation.

4.15       Chuffed does not represent, warrant or guarantee that:

(a)       any Donations made via the Website will be deductible for income tax purposes; or

(b)       receiving Donations made via the Website will not affect or compromise a Social Venture's status as, or eligibility to become, an entity allowed to issue tax deductible or Gift Aid receipts.

4.16       For the issuance of tax receipts, Chuffed acts as an agent on behalf of the Social Venture. We provide all donors with a receipt. However, only donations made to Social Ventures who have indicated that they are eligible entities are tax deductible. If you receive a perk, your donation may not be tax deductible. It is the responsibility of the donor to check if the receipt of any perk affects the tax deductibility of any donations.  Chuffed does not assume any responsibility for a failure to provide tax receipts. See clauses 2.21, 2.22 and 2.23 for further information.
