To access certain other aspects of the Service, you may also be required to create a fundraising Merchant account (each, an “Account“). A “Merchant” is a User that is an individual (at least eighteen (18) years old or older), a business, or a non-profit organization that accepts payments through the Givum Services. Users may be Donating Users (as defined below) or may be authorized Account users, and multiple Users may be associated with and manage an Account.

You agree that any registration information that you submit to Givum will be correct, accurate and up to date.

4.2 DonorID – TBD

The “DonorID” feature enables users who make contributions through the Service (“Donating Users”) to store their personal contact and payment information so that they do not need to input this information each time they make a donation through the Service, and to track their prior transactions. To use DonorID, Donating Users must create a password or add an alternative method of authorization accepted by Givum.

4.3 Payments and Refunds

Givum does not retain amounts (other than applicable service charges) contributed by a Donating User, but instead these amounts are transmitted by Givum directly to one or more Accounts designated by the Donating User. These transactions are between Donating Users and recipient Accounts (“Recipients”), and Givum is not a party to these transactions. Unless otherwise noted, all currency references are in U.S. dollars. All contributions and related service charges are payable in accordance with payment terms in effect at the time such contribution is made. Givum may, from time to time, modify, amend, or supplement its pricing and billing procedures, and such changes shall be effective immediately upon posting a link to an update of the Terms or posting such changes elsewhere on the Site or the App. If there is a dispute regarding the Service in general, Givum shall have the right to terminate the applicable User or Account without prior notice.

If a Donating User is unable to contact the Recipient or the Recipient is unreachable, the Donating User may contact Givum by emailing info@Givum.com and specifying the request.

You have the right to deactivate your User or Account at any time. You may do so by following the deactivation link and instructions available on the Site or by contacting us via email at info@Givum.com. Once you deactivate your User or Account, your personal information will no longer be viewable by users of the Service. However, content previously shared with other users of the Service may remain viewable by those users until you delete such content. Deactivation of a User or an Account shall not relieve the User or the Account and its authorized users of their continued obligations under the Terms, including but not limited to obligations with respect to payment of service charges or chargebacks related thereto or other obligations to Donating Users who have made donations.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Givum shall be allowed to apply for equitable remedies (including injunctions) in any jurisdiction.

17. Binding Arbitration

It is Givum’s goal that the Service meets your expectations and lives up to our promises to you. However, there may be instances when you feel that Givum has not fulfilled its obligations or you may have a different type of problem or dispute that needs special attention. In those instances, Givum is committed to working with you to reach a reasonable resolution that satisfies you; however, we can only do this if we know about and understand your issue. Therefore, for any problem or dispute that you may have with Givum, you acknowledge and agree that you will first give Givum an opportunity to resolve your problem or dispute. In order to initiate this dispute resolution process, you must first send us a written description of your problem or dispute within thirty (30) days of the services being performed by sending an email to: info@Givum.com or by mail to 2051 Caton St. #8196, New Orleans, La. 70122. You then agree to negotiate with Givum in good faith about your problem or dispute for at least sixty (60) days after Givum’s receipt of your written description of it. If we cannot come to a resolution, you agree to abide by arbitration procedures below.

17.1 Arbitration Procedures

You and Givum agree that, except as provided in Section 17.4 below, all disputes, controversies and claims related to the Terms (each a “Claim”), shall be finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration, which may be initiated by either party by sending a written notice requesting arbitration to the other party. Any election to arbitrate by one party shall be final and binding on the other. The arbitration will be conducted under the Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures of JAMS that are in effect at the time the arbitration is initiated (the “JAMS Rules”) and under the terms set forth in the Terms. In the event of a conflict between the terms set forth in this Article 17 and the JAMS Rules, the terms in this Article 17 will control and prevail.

In the event that you or Givum are not able to resolve a Dispute with American Express, or a claim against Givum or any other entity that American Express has a right to join, Exhibit B Section 3 will apply. Except as otherwise set forth in Section 17.4, you may seek any remedies available to you under federal, state or local laws in an arbitration action. As part of the arbitration, both you and Givum will have the opportunity for discovery of non-privileged information that is relevant to the Claim. The arbitrator will provide a written statement of the arbitrator’s decision regarding the Claim, the award given and the arbitrator’s findings and conclusions on which the arbitrator’s decision is based. The determination of whether a Claim is subject to arbitration shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act and determined by a court rather than an arbitrator. Except as otherwise provided in the Terms, (a) you and Givum may litigate in court to compel arbitration, stay proceedings pending arbitration, or confirm, modify, vacate or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator; and (b) the arbitrator’s decision shall be final, binding on all parties and enforceable in any court that has jurisdiction, provided that any award may be challenged if the arbitrator fails to follow applicable law.

17.2 Location

The arbitration will take place in New Orleans, Louisiana, unless the parties agree to video, phone or internet connection appearances.

17.3 Limitations

You and Givum agree that any arbitration shall be limited to the Claim between Givum and you individually. YOU AND GIVUM AGREE THAT (a) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED ON A CLASS-ACTION BASIS OR TO UTILIZE CLASS ACTION PROCEDURES; (b) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY OR AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL; AND (c) NO ARBITRATION SHALL BE JOINED WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION.

17.4 Exceptions to Arbitration

You and Givum agree that the following Claims are not subject to the above provisions concerning negotiations and binding arbitration: (a) any Claim seeking to enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of, any of Givum’s intellectual property rights; (b) any Claim related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy or unauthorized use; and (c) any claim for equitable relief. In addition to the foregoing, either party may assert an individual action in small claims court for Claims that are within the scope of such court’s jurisdiction in lieu of arbitration.

17.5 Arbitration Fees

If you initiate arbitration for a Claim, you will need to pay the JAMS arbitration initiation fee. If we are initiating arbitration for a Claim, we will pay all costs charged by JAMS for initiating the arbitration. All other fees and costs of the arbitration will be charged pursuant to the JAMS Rules.

17.6 Severability

You and Givum agree that if any portion of this Article 17 is found illegal or unenforceable (except any portion of Section 17.4), that portion shall be severed and the remainder of the section shall be given full force and effect. If Section 17.4 is found to be illegal or unenforceable then neither you nor Givum will elect to arbitrate any Claim falling within that portion of Section 17.4 found to be illegal or unenforceable and such Claim shall be exclusively decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within New Castle County, Delaware, and you and Givum agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.
