1. Acceptance of the Terms of Use

Welcome to the website of JustFund.us (“JustFund”, “we”, “our” or “us”). JustFund.us is a California not for profit corporation with tax-exempt status under Section 501(c)(3) of the United States Internal Revenue Code. The following terms and conditions, together with any documents they expressly incorporate by reference (collectively, these “Terms of Use”), govern your access to and use of this website, including any content, functionality and services offered on or through www.justfund.us and any applicable subdomains thereof, and through any applications, mobile applications, functionalities, content, materials, or other online services provided by us (the “Portal”).

The Portal connects private foundations, individual donors, donor networks, and collaborative funds (“Grantmakers”) with critical organizations around the United States and their work (“Proposals”) (the “Service”). Proposals may be submitted by: 1) grantseekers that have been determined to be tax-exempt under an applicable provision of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended (the “Code”); 2) grantseekers that have not been determined to be tax-exempt under the Code, but may be fiscally sponsored by an organization that has been determined to be tax-exempt under the Code; or 3) projects that may otherwise qualify for charitable and/or educational funding. JUSTFUND DOES NOT VERIFY THE TAX-EXEMPT STATUS OR GOOD STANDING OF ORGANIZATIONS AND THEIR PROPOSALS AND MAKES NO REPRESENTATION AS TO THE DEDUCTIBILITY OF CONTRIBUTIONS IN SUPPORT OF AN ORGANIZATION OR PROPOSAL. GRANTMAKERS MUST COMPLETE THEIR OWN DUE DILIGENCE WHEN DETERMINING WHETHER OR NOT TO PROCEED WITH FUNDING A PARTICULAR ORGANIZATION OR PROPOSAL. ALTHOUGH GRANTMAKERS MAY USE THE PORTAL TO SUBMIT GRANT RECOMMENDATIONS, JUSTFUND DOES NOT TRANSMIT CONTRIBUTIONS BETWEEN GRANTMAKERS AND PROPOSALS OR OTHERWISE MAKE GRANT DISTRIBUTIONS; RATHER GRANTMAKERS MUST MAKE THEIR OWN INDEPENDENT ARRANGEMENTS TO FUND PROPOSALS. IN SOME CASES, JUSTFUND MAY, IN ITS DISCRETION, SUPPORT GRANT DISTRIBUTION THROUGH OUR PARTNERSHIP WITH AMALGAMATED CHARITABLE FOUNDATION. YOU AGREE THAT JUSTFUND SHALL NOT BE LIABLE TO YOU OR TO ANY THIRD PARTY FROM THE FAILURE OF A GRANTMAKER TO FUND AN ORGANIZATION OR PROPOSAL FOR ANY REASON OR NO REASON AT ALL.NOR WILL JUSTFUND BE LIABLE IF A GRANTMAKER FUNDS A NON-TAX EXEMPT ORGANIZATION OR PROPOSAL (e.g. activity)COLLECTED THROUGH THE PORTAL.

4. Available Services

As a non-paying Member, you may access the Portal and use some, but not all, of the features and services available within the Portal. The features and services that may be available to you may be changed or eliminated at any time in JustFund sole and absolute discretion. Additional features and services may be made available to you upon becoming a paying Member to the Service. If you are not a paying Member, you acknowledge and agree that you will not be able to use all the features and services available within the Service. A Member profile may remain posted on the Portal even if that Member is not actively using the Service, but JustFund may remove any Member profile at any time in its sole and absolute discretion, with or without cause.

So long as you maintain a fully-paid membership for the Services, JustFund will make the Services available to you pursuant to this Agreement on an as-available basis. The Services may be unavailable as a result of planned or emergency downtime and any unavailability caused by circumstances beyond JustFund reasonable control, including by way of example and without limitation, an act of God, act of government, flood, fire, earthquake, civil unrest, act of terror, strike or other labor problem, Internet service provider failure or delay or denial of service attack. JustFund reserves the right at any time to modify or discontinue the Service or any part thereof, temporarily or permanently, with or without notice. You agree that JustFund shall not be liable to you or to any third party for any modification, suspension, or discontinuance of the Service. JustFund reserves the right at any time in its sole discretion to block users, including without limitation users from certain IP addresses, from accessing the Service.

From time to time, JustFund may make available services (or a feature of the Service or Portal) that are labeled as “coming soon”, “pre-release”, “beta” or similar designation (each a “Beta Offering”). Beta Offerings are intended for evaluation purposes and are not for production use. Access to and use of a Beta Offering may be subject to additional fees, agreements or requirements determined by JustFund. Beta Offerings are not considered to be the “Service” under these Terms of Use; however, all restrictions, JustFund’s rights, and your obligations concerning the Service shall apply equally to your use of any Beta Offering. Unless otherwise communicated, any Beta Offering trial period will expire on the date the Beta Offering becomes generally available in production. JustFund may discontinue Beta Offerings or remove your access to a Beta Offering at any time and may never make Beta Offerings generally available in production. Beta Offerings are providing AS IS and may contain bugs, errors or other defects. Any information, data, content,  or materials provided or displayed to you through any Beta Offering, or any knowledge or learnings that you may have from or relating to such Beta Offering, is proprietary and confidential information of JustFund, and you shall not disclose any such information to any third party or person.

5. Paid Membership Terms

JustFund may offer services on a membership fee (the “Membership Fees”) basis according to the pricing and payment schedule available through the Portal, or as otherwise agreed upon between you and JustFund. You agree to pay the Membership Fees and any other charges incurred in connection with your Account (including any and all applicable taxes) at the rates in effect when the charges were incurred. If your membership includes access to areas containing premium content or services, your access to such areas may be subject to additional fees, terms and conditions, which will be separately disclosed in such areas.

Unless otherwise specified in an applicable Service Agreement, JustFund bills all charges automatically to your credit card or other payment method that JustFund offers and you select (including third-party payment processing services, such as Stripe, PayPal, Circle, and other similar payment processing services). Each membership term shall be for one year, which term shall automatically renew unless you terminate your subscription at least thirty (30) days prior to the end of the then-current term. All payments are due in advance of the subscription term. Membership Fees will be billed beginning on or about the day of the month in which JustFund activates your Account (the “Membership Date”) and on or about the monthly anniversary of each Membership Date thereafter for the term of this Agreement and any renewal thereof until you cancel your annual membership. If you cancel your annual membership, you may use your membership until the end of your then-current membership term and your membership will not be renewed after your then-current membership term expires; however, you won’t be eligible for a prorated refund of any portion of the membership fee paid for the then-current membership period. You may cancel your annual membership by emailing [email protected]. You hereby accept responsibility for all recurring charges made to your selected payment method prior to cancellation or termination. Unless you cancel, your membership will be automatically extended for successive monthly periods at the then-current Membership Fee. Your non-termination or continued use of the Service reaffirms that JustFund is authorized to charge your selected payment method on the recurring basis to which you agreed at registration. We may submit those charges for payment, and you will be responsible for such charges. We assume no responsibility or liability if your access to the Service fails to renew or otherwise expires because of outdated or incorrect payment information. JUSTFUND MAY SUBMIT PERIODIC CHARGES WITHOUT FURTHER AUTHORIZATION FROM YOU, UNTIL YOU AFFIRMATIVELY CANCEL YOUR MEMBERSHIP OR NOTIFY US THAT YOU WISH TO CHANGE YOUR PAYMENT METHOD INFORMATION. SUCH NOTICE WILL NOT AFFECT CHARGES SUBMITTED BEFORE JUSTFUND REASONABLY COULD ACT.

Unless JustFund otherwise agrees in writing, all fees and charges are nonrefundable. JustFund may change the fees and charges then in effect, or add new fees or charges, by giving you notice in advance. If you want to use a different credit card or payment method than one previously provided or there is a change in credit card validity or expiration date, or if you believe someone has accessed the Services using your user name and password without your authorization, you must contact us immediately. If you initiate a chargeback or otherwise reverse a payment made with your payment method, JustFund may in its discretion terminate your account immediately. If JustFund successfully disputes the reversal, and the reversed funds are returned, you are not entitled to a refund or to have your account or membership reinstated. You are responsible for any fees or charges incurred to access the Service through an Internet access provider or other third-party service. By way of example and without limitation, the Service may include large video and/or image files. You are responsible for payment of any bandwidth, data, or subscription charges you may incur from a service provider while utilizing the Services.

You acknowledge and understand that JustFund does not offer as part of the Service any form of verification of the Proposals collected and/or listed through the Portal. JustFund makes no guarantee of the accuracy of the content of Proposals submitted for listing via the Portal. JustFund does not conduct background checks of the grantseekers which submit Proposals through the Portal and does not represent or warrant the exempt status of any such grantseeker. JustFund is not liable for any inaccuracies contained in a Proposal, or for any non-tax exempt activity outlined in a Proposal.You hereby irrevocably release, acquit, and forever discharge JustFund and its subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, and successors of any liability for and against any and all past or future causes of action, suits, or controversies arising out of the content of any Proposals.

For any dispute with JustFund or arising out of or in connection with these Terms, including but not limited to any question regarding its existence, interpretation, validity, performance, or termination, or any dispute between the parties arising from the parties' relationship created by these Terms, you agree to first contact us at and attempt to resolve the dispute with us informally.

The number of arbitrators shall be one (1). The parties shall endeavour to agree upon the sole arbitrator and jointly nominate the arbitrator.
