DONORFUSE GROUP LLC

TERMS OF SERVICE AGREEMENT

Last updated April 1, 2024

This Terms of Service Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into by and between you, as a User (as defined below), and DonorFuse Group LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and its subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively, “DonorFuse”). This Agreement contains the terms and conditions that govern the use of DonorFuse’s platform providing an easy to use dashboard for fundraising and accounting and finance administration for not for profit business organizations (the “Platform”). DonorFuse directly, and through its website (www.donorfuse.com) and the associated domains thereof (the “Site”), offers customers the products and services listed at www.donorfuse.com (as such list may be updated, modified, or otherwise changed from time to time, collectively, the “Services”).

This Agreement is applicable to all persons who use or access the Platform and/or the Services, in their company’s capacity or in an individual capacity, including authorized users representing the company, its employees, or other persons using or accessing the Services (collectively, “Users” and each, a “User”). If User is agreeing to these terms on behalf of a business or an individual other than User, User represents and warrants that User has authority to bind that business or other individual to this Agreement, and User’s agreement to these terms will be treated as the agreement of such business or individual. In that event, “User” also refers to that business or individual. By clicking the applicable button to indicate User’s acceptance of this Agreement, or by accessing or using the Platform, User agrees, effective as of the date of such action, to be bound by the Agreement.

Please review Section 25 of this Agreement carefully, as it contains an arbitration provision and class action waiver which requires User to resolve disputes with DonorFuse through final, binding arbitration on an individual basis. By entering into this Agreement, User is acknowledging that User has read and that User understands the terms of this Agreement and that User agrees to be bound by the arbitration provision and class action waiver.

1. Additional Terms for Services

DonorFuse’s provision of any Service is subject to the terms of this Agreement and any supplemental terms referenced herein or which DonorFuse may present User with for review and acceptance at the time User subscribes to such Service (each, “Service Terms”), and any Service Terms shall be incorporated into and form a part of this Agreement. If the terms hereof conflict with any Service Terms, the Service Terms will govern with respect to the matters contemplated thereby.

In order to receive any Service, User must be enrolled in one or more product packages identified on the Site (DonorFuse currently offers the “Fundraising”, “Accounting” and “Marketing” product packages). Each of the product packages is referred to as a “Service Plan”, each of which is governed by the Service Terms listed next to such Service Plan and incorporated herein by reference, as applicable to User. User accepts the Service Terms listed next to the Service Plan which coincides with User’s Plan Selection (as defined below) or Service Plan access by (i) clicking the applicable button to indicate User’s Service Plan choice (the “Plan Selection”); (ii) clicking the applicable button to indicate User’s acceptance of this Agreement (in the event that User is already enrolled in a Service Plan); or (iii) accessing or using the Services. By taking any of the aforementioned actions, User agrees to be bound by the applicable Service Terms as of the time that such action occurs.

2. Services Fees and Charges

User agrees to pay the fees for the Services in accordance with the applicable fee schedules listed on the Site.  Fees for the Services are typically based on the calendar months in which User is enrolled in any Services, and such fees are applied in full for a given calendar month, regardless of whether User is only enrolled in the Services for a portion of such month. All fees are non-refundable. User agrees to reimburse DonorFuse for any sales, use, and similar taxes arising from the provision of the Services that any federal, state, or local governments may impose. DonorFuse may charge additional fees for exceptions processing, setup, and other special services (including optional add-on services).

DonorFuse reserves the right to change the fees for its Services from time to time. User will be notified of any change to existing fees at least thirty (30) days before the fee change goes into effect. If a fee increase or change to this Agreement is not acceptable to User, User may cancel the Services as provided herein prior to the time when such fee increase or change to this Agreement takes effect. User’s continued use of the Services beyond the cancellation window constitutes User’s agreement to those changes. If DonorFuse is unable to collect fees for any reason, User must pay the amount due immediately upon demand, plus any applicable exceptions processing fees, bank fees, or charges for return items, plus interest at the lesser of 18% per annum or the maximum rate permitted by law, plus attorneys’ fees and other costs of collection as permitted by law.

3. Switching Service Plans

DonorFuse currently offers several Service Plans with varying features and fee schedules, as well as multiple add-on services that User can choose to opt into for additional fees, unless otherwise stated. Before User may begin to use the Services, User will be asked to select a Service Plan from those detailed on the Site. User may request to change User’s Service Plan via the Platform.

If User chooses to upgrade from User’s current Service Plan (the “Current Plan”) to a more expensive Service Plan (the “New Upgrade Plan”), then such upgrade will promptly go into effect, and User will begin receiving access to the features and Services available under the New Upgrade Plan at the time of such upgrade. The fee schedule for the New Upgrade Plan will be applied to User’s Service Plan charge for the calendar month in which User upgraded (on a pro rata basis starting from the date of the upgrade) and for each calendar month thereafter for so long as User is subscribed to the New Upgrade Plan.

If User chooses to downgrade from User’s Current Plan to a less expensive Service Plan (the “New Downgrade Plan”), then the downgrade will promptly go into effect, and User will lose access to some of the features and Services available with User’s Current Plan and will only have access to the features and Services available under User’s New Downgrade Plan. The fee schedule for New Downgrade Plan will be applied to User’s Service Plan charge for the calendar month in which the User downgraded (on a pro rata basis starting from the date of the downgrade), and any credit for prior payments for features and Services no longer used during the month in which the downgrade occurred will be applied towards the New Downgrade Plan fees in the following month  The fee schedule for the New Downgrade Plan will be applied to User’s Service Plan charge for each calendar month thereafter for so long as User is subscribed to the New Downgrade Plan.

4. User Accounts

To use the Platform, User must have an account with DonorFuse (an “Account”). User hereby authorizes DonorFuse to obtain and store User’s Account information as necessary to make the Platform available to User.

7. User’s Compliance with the Agreement

Use of the Platform and the Services are each conditioned upon User’s full compliance with this Agreement and all applicable laws, rules, and regulations.

8. User Is Responsible for Certain Information and Obligations Relating to the Services

User will designate and authorize either itself and/or one or more individuals with authority to (i) act on User’s behalf, (ii) provide information on User’s behalf, and (iii) bind User and/or User’s business with respect to the Services (each such individual, an “Account Administrator”). An Account Administrator is authorized by User to access the Services by entering a confidential user ID and password. Such Account login information will entitle the Account Administrator, depending on their designation and the permissions given by User, to have the authority to input information and access, review, modify, and/or provide approvals on User’s behalf.

User is solely responsible for all actions taken under any Account that User has access to. Any actions taken under Accounts that User has access to will be deemed authorized by User, regardless of User’s knowledge of such actions (the “Authorized Actions”). Authorized Actions include but are not limited to (i) actions taken by User, an Account Administrator, or an authorized representative of User (an “Authorized Representative”), and (ii) actions that User, an Account Administrator, or an Authorized Representative (or anyone that DonorFuse reasonably believes to be User, an Account Administrator, or an Authorized Representative) directs or instructs DonorFuse to take on its behalf.

In addition, User is solely responsible for (i) following instructions that DonorFuse provides to User with respect to the Services, whether such instructions are provided via the Platform, email, or otherwise, (ii) obtaining, maintaining, and keeping secure any equipment and ancillary services necessary to connect to, access, or otherwise utilize the Platform, including but not limited to internet access, networking equipment, hardware, software, and operating systems, and (iii) maintaining applicable accounts with providers of Third-Party Services (as defined below) utilized by User.

User will, and will cause authorized users of User’s Account, including but not limited to Account Administrators and Authorized Representatives, to take reasonable steps to adequately secure, and keep confidential, any User Account passwords or credentials, and any information accessible via the User Account. If User believes or suspects that User’s Account or passwords or credentials for User’s Account have been disclosed to, accessed by, or compromised by unauthorized persons, User must immediately notify DonorFuse. DonorFuse reserves the right to prevent access to the Services if DonorFuse has reason to believe that User’s Account or passwords or credentials for User’s Account have been compromised.

User is responsible for timely providing DonorFuse with the information required for DonorFuse to perform the Services. User may furnish such information directly to DonorFuse or via an Account Administrator or Authorized Representative, such as User’s accountant. Furthermore, User represents and warrants to DonorFuse that for any information that User shares with DonorFuse, whether directly, via its Account Administrator, or via its Authorized Representative, User will have the authority to share such information. User is responsible for the accuracy and completeness of information provided to DonorFuse, and User will ensure that any such information, whether provided by User, an Account Administrator, or Authorized Representative, is accurate and complete. Moreover, User is required to maintain the accuracy and completeness of such information on an ongoing basis and will promptly notify DonorFuse, whether directly or through an Account Administrator or Authorized Representative, of any changes to the information provided to DonorFuse.

In addition, User, whether directly or through its Account Administrators or Authorized Representatives, is responsible for reviewing any reports, filings, information, documents or materials (collectively, the “Materials”) posted to the Platform by DonorFuse (or otherwise made available to User by DonorFuse) for User’s review, and User or its Account Administrators or Authorized Representatives must notify DonorFuse of any inaccuracies in the Materials as soon as possible, or within the time period specified in communications received from DonorFuse.

User, whether directly or through its Account Administrators or Authorized Representatives, is also obligated to promptly notify DonorFuse of any third-party notices that User may receive which could affect DonorFuse’s ability to effectively provide the Services or increase the likelihood that a Claim (as defined below) is brought against User or DonorFuse in connection with the Services, such as notices from the Internal Revenue Service or other government agencies regarding penalties or errors relating to the Services.

User agrees that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the provision of Account login credentials (e.g., username and password) or identity verification credentials to DonorFuse by User, an Account Administrator, or an Authorized Representative, together with any actions authorized by such foregoing parties via the Platform (e.g., clicking any buttons) or otherwise (e.g., verbally telling a DonorFuse Customer Care representative to take an action), will have the same effect as such parties providing a written signature authorizing electronic payments, filings, or any other actions in connection with the Services.

9. User Verification

User gives DonorFuse permission to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies the individual who creates an Account, is the intended user of an Account, or accesses the Services. DonorFuse may ask for User’s name, address, date of birth, social security number, and other information that will allow DonorFuse to identify User. DonorFuse may also ask to see User’s driver’s license or other identifying documents. User consents to and authorizes DonorFuse to obtain credit reports about User’s business, and to report adverse credit information about User’s business to others, including but not limited to the Internal Revenue Service and any applicable state taxing authorities. DonorFuse may, at its discretion, decline to offer the Services for any reason, including in the event that the Services enrollment process is not satisfactorily completed, DonorFuse is unable to verify satisfactory credit of User’s business, and/or for other lawful business reasons.

10. Third-Party Services, Websites, and Resources

Through the Platform, User will be able to elect to receive services from partners of DonorFuse (each such service, a “Third-Party Service,” and each such partner, a “Partner”). User is solely responsible for, and assumes all risk arising from, User’s election to receive and User’s receipt of any Third-Party Service. DonorFuse is not responsible for Third-Party Services or any material, information, or results made available through Third-Party Services. The applicable Partners may require User to agree to terms and conditions or agreements with respect to their provision of the Third-Party Services to User. If User elects to receive a Third-Party Service, User authorizes DonorFuse to submit to the applicable Partner any and all documents and information about User, User’s business and User’s business’ employees that are necessary for such Partner to provide the Third-Party Service to User requested by such Partner that User has provided to DonorFuse in connection with this Agreement and User’s receipt of the Services (collectively, the “Shared Information”). User is responsible for the accuracy of all Shared Information. User represents and warrants that User has all the rights in and to any Shared Information necessary to provide Shared Information to DonorFuse and for DonorFuse to provide it to Partners, and that DonorFuse’s use or disclosure of Shared Information as contemplated hereunder will not violate any rights of privacy or other proprietary rights, or any applicable local, state, or federal laws, regulations, orders, or rules. User agrees that by electing to receive a Third-Party Service, and by consenting and authorizing DonorFuse to submit User’s Shared Information to a Partner, User has waived and released any Claim against DonorFuse and its directors, officers, and employees arising out of a Partner’s use of User’s Shared Information, even if that use is not authorized by the applicable agreement between User and the Partner.

The Platform and the Services may contain links to third-party websites or resources. DonorFuse provides these links only as a convenience and is not responsible for the content, products, or services on or available from those websites or resources, or links displayed on such websites.

DonorFuse reserves the right, but is not obligated, to remove or disable access to any User Content, at any time and without notice, for any reason, including, but not limited to, if DonorFuse, at DonorFuse’s sole discretion, considers any User Content to be objectionable or in violation of this Agreement.

DonorFuse makes no representations or warranties regarding the validity or enforceability of electronic documents or electronic signatures.

16. DonorFuse Makes No Representations Regarding Platform Availability

DonorFuse makes no representations or warranties about the Platform’s uptime, availability, or permissibility in any particular geographical location. From time to time, scheduled system maintenance or emergency maintenance may occur, and during such maintenance periods, the Platform may be inaccessible and unavailable, with or without notice to User.

17. The Platform Can Cause Irrevocable Damage to User Content

SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF LIABILITY FOR CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO USER. IN NO EVENT WILL DONORFUSE’S TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR FROM THE USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE PLATFORM, SERVICES, OR CONTENT EXCEED THE AMOUNTS USER HAS PAID TO DONORFUSE FOR USE OF THE PLATFORM, SERVICES, OR CONTENT IN THE SIX (6) MONTH PERIOD IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE EVENTS GIVING RISE TO THE APPLICABLE CLAIM. THE EXCLUSIONS AND LIMITATIONS OF DAMAGES SET FORTH ABOVE ARE FUNDAMENTAL ELEMENTS OF THE BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN DONORFUSE AND USER.

21. Duty to Mitigate

If User becomes aware of, or reasonably should have been aware of, any facts, issues, information, or circumstances which are reasonably likely, whether alone or in combination with any other facts, issues, information, or circumstances, to lead to a Claim against DonorFuse or User in connection with this Agreement, User must use reasonable efforts to mitigate any loss that may give rise to such a Claim.

22. Term; Termination; Suspension

The Services and this Agreement will continue until they are terminated by either party. User may terminate the Services and this Agreement through User’s Account. DonorFuse may terminate the Services and this Agreement by giving User at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice. In addition to DonorFuse’s foregoing termination right, DonorFuse may immediately suspend or restrict User’s Account; suspend or restrict User’s access to the Platform or any Services; block User’s ability to use any particular feature of a Service; or immediately terminate the Services and this Agreement, in each case with or without notice to User, in the event that: (i) DonorFuse has any reason to suspect or believe that User may be in violation of this Agreement; (ii) DonorFuse determines that User’s actions are likely to cause legal liability for or material negative impact to DonorFuse; (iii) DonorFuse believes that User has misrepresented any data or information or that User has engaged in fraudulent or deceptive practices or illegal activities; (iv) DonorFuse has determined that User is behind in payment of fees for the Services and User has not cured such non-payment within five (5) days of DonorFuse providing User with notice of the non-payment; or (v) User files a petition under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or a similar state or federal law, or a petition under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or a similar state or federal law is filed against User.

The termination of any of the Services or this Agreement will not affect User’s or DonorFuse’s rights with respect to transactions which occurred before termination. DonorFuse will have no liability for any costs, losses, damages, penalties, fines, expenses, or liabilities arising out of or related to DonorFuse’s termination of this Agreement. Sections 2 (to the extent that there are any unpaid fees for services rendered as of the time of termination of this Agreement), 4, 5, 6, 11, 13, 14, and 16 through 28 of this Agreement, and any sections of the Service Terms which by their nature should survive, will survive and remain in effect even if this Agreement is terminated, cancelled, or rescinded.

Upon termination of any of the Service(s) and/or termination of this Agreement, User’s right to access and use such terminated Services(s) will automatically terminate, and, unless specifically otherwise agreed to by DonorFuse, User will no longer have any ability to view and download information that was available in User’s Account at the time of termination of such Service(s).

23. Changes to the Agreement, Platform, or Service

DonorFuse may modify the Agreement at any time, in DonorFuse’s sole discretion. If DonorFuse does so, DonorFuse shall let User know either by posting the modified Agreement on the Platform or Site or through other communications. It is important that User reviews the Agreement whenever DonorFuse modifies it because if User continues to use the Platform or Services after DonorFuse has notified User of the modification and the modified Agreement has been posted on the Platform or Site, User is indicating to DonorFuse that User agrees to be bound by the modified Agreement. If User does not agree to be bound by the modified Agreement, then User may not continue to use the Platform or Services. Because the Platform and Services are evolving over time, DonorFuse may change or discontinue all or any part of the Platform, Services, or DonorFuse Content at any time and without notice, at DonorFuse’s sole discretion.

24. Governing Law

This Agreement shall be interpreted and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to the conflicts of laws principles thereof.

25. Arbitration

Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, and except as otherwise set forth in this section, if either User or DonorFuse has any dispute, controversy, or claim, whether founded in contract, tort, statutory, or common law, concerning, arising out of, or relating to this Agreement, the Platform, or the Services, including any claim regarding the applicability, interpretation, scope, or validity of this arbitration clause and/or this Agreement (each of the foregoing, a “Legal Claim”) that cannot be resolved directly between User and DonorFuse, then such Legal Claim will be settled by individual (not class or class-wide), confidential, binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in accordance with the then-current Commercial Arbitration Rules and Mediation Procedures of the AAA (the “AAA Rules”), including any expedited procedures. To initiate an arbitration proceeding, an arbitration claim must be submitted by the claimant (the “Claimant”) to the AAA, and a written Demand for Arbitration must be provided to the other party (the “Opposing Party”), pursuant to the AAA Rules. Arbitration hearings will be held in New York, New York or any other location that is mutually agreed upon by User and DonorFuse. A single arbitrator will be mutually selected by DonorFuse and User and shall be (i) a practicing attorney licensed to practice law in New York or a retired judge; and (ii) selected from the arbitrators on the AAA’s roster of commercial dispute arbitrators who have a background in software services and/or not for profit organizations and/or online commerce law (or if there are no such arbitrators, then from the arbitrators on the AAA’s roster of commercial dispute arbitrators) (collectively, the “Arbitrator Requirements”). If DonorFuse and User cannot mutually agree upon an arbitrator within ten (10) days of the Opposing Party’s receipt of the Demand for Arbitration from the Claimant, then the AAA shall appoint a single arbitrator that satisfies the Arbitrator Requirements. The arbitrator will follow the law and will give effect to any applicable statutes of limitation. The prevailing party shall be entitled to an award of the costs and expenses of the arbitration, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expert witness fees. The award rendered by the arbitrator shall be final and binding upon User and DonorFuse. A judgment on the award may be entered and enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction. DonorFuse may, in its sole discretion, commence an action in any state or federal court of competent jurisdiction within New York County, New York, for any monetary amounts that User owes to DonorFuse (each, an “Action”). User hereby waives any objection to jurisdiction or venue, or any defense claiming lack of jurisdiction or improper venue, in any Action brought by DonorFuse in such courts.

Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph, User and DonorFuse each agrees that nothing herein will be deemed to waive, preclude or otherwise limit either party’s rights, at any time, to seek injunctive relief in a court of law.  In addition, DonorFuse may file a suit in a court of law against User to address intellectual property infringement claims.

User and DonorFuse agree and acknowledge that this Agreement evidences a transaction involving interstate commerce and that the Federal Arbitration Act (Title 9 of the United States Code) shall govern the interpretation, enforcement, and proceedings pursuant to the arbitration clause in this Agreement. USER FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES, UNDERSTANDS, AND AGREES THAT USER AND DONORFUSE ARE EACH WAIVING THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY AS TO DISPUTES HEREUNDER AND THAT USER IS WAIVING ITS RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN ANY CLASS ACTION PROCEEDING ARISING FROM THIS AGREEMENT.

26. DonorFuse Is Not Responsible for Things DonorFuse Cannot Control

DonorFuse is not responsible or liable for any delays or failures in performance from any cause beyond DonorFuse’s control, including, but not limited to, acts of God, changes to laws or regulations, embargoes, wars, terrorist acts, acts or omissions of third-party technology providers, riots, fires, earthquakes, floods, power outages, strikes, weather conditions, acts of hackers, acts of internet service providers, acts of any other third party, or acts or omissions of User.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing or Section 18, the Platform and the Services rely on third-party technology and services, such as application programming interfaces, for Third-Party Services and web hosting services. Any change to the products or services offered by any of these third-party providers may materially and adversely affect, or entirely disable, User’s use of or access to the Platform and the Services. Likewise, DonorFuse cannot guarantee that any User Content hosted on a third-party server will remain secure.

27. General

This Agreement, including all applicable Service Terms, constitutes the entire agreement between DonorFuse and User regarding the Platform, Services, and Content and replaces all prior understandings, communications, and agreements, oral or written, regarding this subject matter. This Agreement may be modified only by a written amendment signed by the parties or as otherwise provided in Section 23. If any part of this Agreement is deemed to be unenforceable or invalid, that section will be removed without affecting the remainder of the Agreement. The remaining terms will be valid and enforceable. User may not assign this Agreement, by operation of law or otherwise, without DonorFuse’s prior written consent. Any attempt by User to assign or transfer this Agreement, without such consent, will be null. DonorFuse may freely assign or transfer this Agreement without restriction. The provisions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

Any notices or other communications provided by DonorFuse under this Agreement, including those regarding modifications to this Agreement, will be given: (i) via email; or (ii) by posting to the Platform. For notices made by e-mail, the date of receipt will be deemed the date on which such notice is given. For notices made by posting to the Platform, the date of such posting will be deemed the date that notice is given. DonorFuse’s failure to enforce any right or provision of this Agreement will not be considered a waiver of such right or provision. The waiver of any such right or provision will be effective only if in writing and signed by a duly authorized representative of DonorFuse. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, the exercise by either party of any of its remedies under this Agreement will be without prejudice to its other remedies under this Agreement or otherwise.

28. Electronic Transmission

This Agreement, and any amendments hereto, by whatever means accepted, shall be treated in all manner and respects as an original contract and shall be considered to have the same binding legal effect as if it were an original signed version thereof, delivered in person. Neither party hereto shall argue that a contract was not formed hereunder based on either (i) the use of electronic means to deliver a signature or to indicate acceptance of this Agreement or (ii) the fact that any signature or acceptance of this Agreement was transmitted or communicated through electronic means; and each party forever waives any related defense.
