(here’s the fine print) We were told by lawyers that we needed to have this on the site :( These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of our website, products, and services ("Products"). Please read these Terms carefully, and contact us if you have any questions. By accessing or using our Products, you agree to be bound by these Terms and by our Privacy Policy. 1. Using This Website a. Who may use this Website You may use our Products only if you can form a binding contract with us, and only in compliance with these Terms and all applicable laws. When you create your account, you must provide us with accurate and complete information. Any use or access by anyone under the age of 13 is prohibited. Some of our Products may be software that is downloaded to your computer, phone, tablet, or other device. You agree that we may automatically upgrade those Products, and these Terms will apply to such upgrades. 2. Your Content a. Posting content We allow you to post content, including photos, comments, links, and other materials. Anything that you post or otherwise make available on our Products is referred to as "User Content." You retain all rights in, and are solely responsible for, the User Content you post. b. How other users can use your content You grant other users a non-exclusive, royalty-free, transferable, sub-licensable, worldwide license to use, store, display, reproduce, share, modify, create derivative works, perform, and distribute your User Content on this site solely for the purposes of operating, developing, providing, and using the Products. Nothing in these Terms shall restrict other legal rights we may have to User Content, for example under other licenses. We reserve the right to remove or modify User Content for any reason, including User Content that we believe violates these Terms or our policies. c. How long we keep your content Following termination or deactivation of your account, or if you remove any User Content from this site, we may retain your User Content for a commercially reasonable period of time for backup, archival, or audit purposes. Furthermore, our users may retain and continue to use, store, display, reproduce, re-share, modify, create derivative works, perform, and distribute any of your User Content that other users have stored or shared through this site. d. Feedback you provide We value hearing from our users, and are always interested in learning about ways we can make this website more awesome.

Sharing Your Content and Information You own all of the content and information you post on GivingConnected, and you can control how it is shared through your privacy and application settings. In addition: a. For content that is covered by intellectual property rights, like photos and videos (IP content), you specifically give us the following permission, subject to your privacy and application settings: you grant us a non-exclusive, transferable, sub-licensable, royalty-free, worldwide license to use any IP content that you post on or in connection with GivingConnected (IP License). This IP License ends when you delete your IP content or your account unless your content has been shared with others, and they have not deleted it. b. When you delete IP content, it is deleted in a manner similar to emptying the recycle bin on a computer. However, you understand that removed content may persist in backup copies for a reasonable period of time (but will not be available to others). c. When you use an application, the application may ask for your permission to access your content and information as well as content and information that others have shared with you. We require applications to respect your privacy, and your agreement with that application will control how the application can use, store, and transfer that content and information. d. When you publish content or information using the Public and/or Everyone setting, it means that you are allowing everyone, including people off of GivingConnected, to access and use that information, and to associate it with you (i.e., your name and profile picture). e. We always appreciate your feedback or other suggestions about GivingConnected, but you understand that we may use your feedback or suggestions without any obligation to compensate you for them (just as you have no obligation to offer them). 4.

Arbitration For any dispute you have with us, you agree to first contact us and attempt to resolve the dispute with us informally. If we have not been able to resolve the dispute with you informally, we each agree to resolve any claim, dispute, or controversy (excluding claims for injunctive or other equitable relief) arising out of or in connection with or relating to these Terms by binding arbitration by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under the Commercial Arbitration Rules and Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes then in effect for the AAA, except as provided herein. Unless you and we agree otherwise, the arbitration will be conducted in the country where you reside. Each party will be responsible for paying any AAA filing, administrative and arbitrator fees in accordance with AAA rules, except that we will pay for your reasonable filing, administrative, and arbitrator fees if your claim for damages does not exceed $75,000 and is non-frivolous (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)). The award rendered by the arbitrator shall include costs of arbitration, reasonable attorneys' fees and reasonable costs for expert and other witnesses, and any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Nothing in this Section shall prevent either party from seeking injunctive or other equitable relief from the courts for matters related to data security, intellectual property or unauthorized access to the Service. ALL CLAIMS MUST BE BROUGHT IN THE PARTIES' INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING, AND, UNLESS WE AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON'S CLAIMS. YOU AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS, YOU AND WE ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION. 14.

Our Products are controlled and operated from the United States, and we make no representations that they are appropriate or available for use in other locations. 15.
