Terms of service

Working draft. This document describes how ThankNest currently works. It has not been reviewed by a lawyer and must be checked against the law that applies to you, and against the terms of PayPal, your bank and MoMo, before this site is opened to the public.

What ThankNest is

ThankNest is a hosting service for support pages. You create a page describing your project and tell us how you would like to be paid. We display that information to your supporters.

What ThankNest is not

ThankNest is not a payment processor, a payment institution, an escrow service or a money transmitter. We do not:

• receive, hold, forward or disburse your supporters' money;
• operate a wallet, balance or payout schedule;
• take a percentage of what you receive;
• verify that any payment was actually made;
• act as an agent, partner or affiliate of PayPal, MoMo or any bank.

Every payment happens directly between a supporter and the payment provider you nominated. Any dispute about a payment is between those parties.

Your account

You must give an accurate email address and keep your password confidential. You are responsible for everything done through your account. You must verify your email address before publishing a page or receiving support.

Your payout details

You are solely responsible for the accuracy of the PayPal.Me link, bank account, account holder name and MoMo details you enter. If you enter the wrong details, money may go to someone else, and ThankNest cannot recover it.

You confirm that you are entitled to receive payments to the details you provide, and that displaying them here does not breach your agreement with that provider.

Your content

You keep ownership of what you write and upload. You grant ThankNest the licence needed to store and display it on your page. You must not upload content you do not have the right to use.

Acceptable use

Your use of ThankNest is also governed by the Acceptable Use policy. Breaching it may lead to your page being suspended and your account closed.

Suspension and termination

We may suspend or remove a page that appears to breach these terms, is reported as fraudulent, or must be removed to comply with the law. Where we can, we will tell you why and let you respond.

You may close your account at any time from your privacy settings.

No warranty, and our liability

ThankNest is provided "as is". We do not guarantee that the service will be uninterrupted, that your page will attract support, or that any payment instruction we display will be accepted by a provider.

To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for payments that fail, go astray, or are sent to incorrect details, nor for anything arising between you and a supporter.

Changes

We may update these terms. If a change is significant we will give notice on the site before it takes effect.
