Relationships between Backers and Project Creators

PledgeBox provides PledgeBox as software service for Project Creators and nothing more. When a Project Creator posts a project on PledgeBox and allows PledgeBox Pledges, they’ re inviting other people to form a contract with them. Anyone who backs a project is accepting the Project Creator’ s offer and forming that contract. When this occurs, PledgeBox is not a party to this contract. The contract is a direct legal agreement between creators and their backers.

The Project Creator, not PledgeBox, is solely responsible for fulfilling the promises made to Users. If an obligation to deliver Rewards exists, it rests solely with the Project Creator, and not PledgeBox. If The Project Creator is unable to satisfy the terms of this agreement, they may be subject to legal action by Backers.

Users under 18 years of age are not eligible to use the Services without consent. Users between the ages of 13 and 17, can use the Services with the consent and supervision of a parent or legal guardian who is at least 18 years old, provided such parent or legal guardian also agrees to be bound by the Terms and agrees to be responsible for such use of the Services. Users suspended from using the Services are not eligible to use the Services. PledgeBox reserves the right to refuse use of the Services to anyone and to reject, cancel, interrupt, remove or suspend any Project, Pledge, or the Services at any time for any reason without liability.

These Terms constitute the entire agreement between us regarding our Service and supersede and replace any prior agreements we might have had between us regarding the Service.

Disclaimers

Campaign Owners and other Users should be aware that many states impose charitable fund solicitation laws to guide direct or indirect fund solicitation activities in those states. While provisions vary state to state, these state laws typically include registration and reporting requirements. PledgeBox provides a technology platform to allow Project Creators to connect with Backers and nothing more. Users who access or use the Services do so at their own volition and are entirely responsible for compliance with applicable law.

PledgeBox makes no representations, warranties or other assertions as to the potential tax-deductible status of any Pledge by a Backer to a charitable cause or to a Project whose purported recipient is a recognized 501(c)(3) or other tax - advantaged organization under the Internal Revenue Code. The listing of an organization via the Services does not necessarily mean that the organization has been deemed— or remains currently deemed— a charitable or tax - advantaged organization by the Internal Revenue Service.
