whatimpact - Gordon Moody

Terms & Conditions

1. Introduction

1.1 whatimpact was founded by social impact-driven entrepreneurs to match businesses and grant-makers who wish to participate in corporate social responsibility (CSR) with charitable or social enterprises that have projects and initiatives that suit the CSR ambitions of those businesses. We do this by hosting and maintaining the Platform, which uses proprietary software algorithms and artificial intelligence to Match parties that are well suited together (the “Services”).

1.2 These Terms constitute a contract between all users of the Platform and/or our Services (“you”) and whatimpact. Your use of our Platform is subject to these Terms, and by using the Platform, you agree to be bound by them. If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not use our Platform.

3.3 If at any time you would like to upgrade your Subscription, please do so through the Platform.

You must not sign up as a Supporter or Recipient unless you have the requisite authority to do so.

4.2 You must also signify agreement with the Privacy & Cookies Policy and these Terms before completing your Order.

Once this information has been passed directly onto the Recipient, they may contact you via the Platform with information that may interest you.

4.7 If you make a Grant, you will be required to submit to us the details of the Grant, including the Grant value (monetary values can be hidden from the public view of the Platform at the request of the Supporter) and the Grant Period.

Recipients

4.8 If you wish for your charitable organisation or social enterprise to become a Recipient, you must submit an application through the Platform.

4.8.2 Company number where applicable;

4.8.3 Charity Commission registration number or Scottish Charity Commission registration number where applicable; and

4.10 Please note that we do not onboard Recipients that are based outside of the United Kingdom.

4.11 Recipients are required to upload content to our Platform relating to their Activities. By permitting us to upload any Activity to our Platform, the Recipient grants whatimpact and our affiliates a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free and fully sub-licensable licence to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, translate, distribute, and display any part of the Activity and/or to incorporate it into other materials in any form, for the purposes of marketing.

Everyone

4.14 Any user of the Website may also elect to receive information from us by signing up for our user support bulletin.

4.15 We retain and use all information strictly under the Privacy and Cookies Policy.

5. Basis of Contract

5.1 The description of the Subscription on our Platform does not constitute a contractual offer to provide the Services to you. When an Order has been submitted on the Platform, we can reject it for any reason, although we will try to tell you the reason without delay. In such an instance, if payment has already been taken, we will refund you in full.

5.2 The Order process is set out on the Platform. Each step allows you to check and amend any errors before submitting the Order. It is your responsibility to check that you have used the ordering process correctly.

5.3 A Contract will be formed for the Subscription you have Ordered when you receive an email from us confirming the Order (Order Confirmation) or within two business days of the Order being placed by you, whichever is the earlier. You must ensure that the Order Confirmation is complete and accurate and inform us immediately of any errors. We are not responsible for any inaccuracies in the Order placed by you. By placing an Order, you agree to us giving you confirmation of the Contract by means of an email with all information in it (i.e. the Order Confirmation). You will receive the Order Confirmation within a reasonable time after making the Contract, but in any event not later than the commencement of your Subscription.

5.4 If we cannot accept your Order, we will inform you of this as soon as possible. This may be because of unexpected limits on our resources which we could not reasonably plan for, because a credit reference we have obtained for you does not meet our minimum requirements, or because you have had a Subscription in the past and we have canceled this due to your conduct.

5.5 Once we have identified a Potential Match via the Platform, whatimpact has discharged its obligations to you. All contractual matters are between the Supporter and the Recipient. In addition, once the Match is confirmed by the parties, we expect the transaction to occur, and so the details of the Grant will be published in the profiles of both the Supporter and the Recipient. Therefore, it is of the utmost importance that both parties communicate any important information relating to a Match between them prior to confirmation, including, but not limited to, any restrictions on the Grant being provided.

5.6 If either party rejects the Potential Match, there will be no further obligation on behalf of the other party, and we would encourage you to wait for another Potential Match.

5.7 No variation of the Contract can be made after it has been entered into unless the variation is agreed by whatimpact in writing and authorised by a member of our senior staff.

6. Fees

6.1 The price of the Subscriptions is those set out on the Platform at the date of the Order or such other price as we may agree in writing.

6.2 You will be required to pay when using our online checkout service on the Platform by submitting your credit or debit card details with your Order. If for any reason, your organisation does not have the capacity to make card payments, annual subscriptions can be invoiced. All invoices issued under Clause 2 must be settled with seven days before you can use the Services.

6.3 Prices and charges include VAT at the rate applicable at the time of the Order.

6.4 For Supporters offering Grants, the monthly or annual subscription, or one-off fee, is paid using our online checkout service (see 6.2). In addition to the fee, a “Successful Grant Fee” (bespoke commission) will be invoiced to the Supporter by whatimpact (see 6.6). For the avoidance of doubt, the Successful Grant Fee is in addition to and is not subtracted from the Grant.

6.5 Where a Grant is resource-based, the Supporter must have pre-selected a Subscription that permits these types of donations. The fees due to the Platform are included in the cost of this Subscription.

6.6 Once both the Supporter and the Recipient have confirmed a Match, whatimpact will send an invoice to the Supporter for the Successful Grant Fee. Successful Grant Fees shall be payable within 14 days following the transmission of a digital invoice from whatimpact to the Supporter. It is the responsibility of the Supporter to provide us with all necessary details to generate the invoice without delay.

6.7 All Subscription Fees must be taken through the Platform. We process payments using Stripe, which are subject to the Stripe terms and conditions, incorporated into these Terms by reference.

7. Term and Termination

7.1 Subscriptions commence on the date that you receive the Order Confirmation and endure for the chosen period, renewing automatically unless terminated by you or us for a length of time equal to the initial period.

7.2 You may terminate your Subscription by contacting whatimpact. Your Subscription will then end on the subsequent renewal date.

7.3 We may end your Subscription at any time by writing to you if you commit a breach of these Terms as follows:

7.3.1 you do not make any payment to us when it is due, and you still do not make payment within seven days of us reminding you that payment is due;

7.3.2 in the case of a Supporter, if a Grant is not honoured after a Match is confirmed;

7.3.3 you pursue a Potential Match outside of the Platform without informing us or confirming a Match on the Platform; or

7.3.4 you demonstrate a pattern of behaviour which in our sole opinion is likely to cause damage to our reputation by association.

7.4 If we end the Contract in the situations set out in Clause 3, we may deduct or charge you reasonable compensation for the net costs we will incur as a result of you breaching the Contract and for any outstanding commission payments.

8. Cancellation or Revocation of Grants

If a Supporter wishes to cancel or revoke a Grant, they must contact both whatimpact and the Recipient without delay. However, please note that in either case, Successful Grant Fees shall be non-refundable. In addition, all records of Grants shall be erased from the Platform and Subscription Fees shall remain unchanged.

9. Recipient Obligations

9.1 The Recipient represents and warrants that:

9.1.1 it has the necessary authority, rights and licences to fundraise legally on the Platform;

9.1.2 the details of the causes and campaigns detailed on the Projects are up-to-date, accurate, truthful and not misleading for Supporters;

9.2.1 the Recipient’s breach of the warranties set out herein;

9.2.2 the Recipient’s breach or negligent performance or non-performance of any obligations under these Terms;

9.2.3 any damage to reputation suffered by whatimpact as a result of the Recipient’s breach of these Terms or negligence; and/or

9.2.4 any claim made by a Supporter or any third party arising out of or in connection with a Grant made to the Recipient, to the extent that such claim arises as a result of any breach of these Terms or any law or regulation either through the negligence or criminal intent of the Recipient or its staff or contractors.

9.3 whatimpact requires that the Recipient obtains and maintains appropriate insurance policies to cover its liabilities to Supporters and whatimpact under these Terms, including, but not limited to, coverage regarding risk to the health and safety of any volunteers provided by a Supporter to a Recipient.

9.4 whatimpact reserves the right to suspend and terminate the use of the Platform by any Recipient that breaches these Terms.
