1.2 The Website is operated by The Do Nation Enterprise Ltd, a limited company registered in England and Wales under company number 8688899 with its registered office at 5 High Green, Great Shelford, Cambridge, England, CB22 5EG ("Do Nation").

2. Formation of Contract

2.1 Please read these terms and conditions (the "Contract"), carefully before using www.WeAreDoNation.com (the "Website”) and the Services. Any capitalised terms not defined in the body of this Contract are defined at Clause 13 or on the Website. This Contract sets out the legally binding terms and conditions for Your use of the Website and Services and applies to all users of the Website and/or Services, including all users who are also contributors of content, information, and other materials or services on the Website. By using this Website and/or Services in any manner you agree to be bound by this Contract.

2.2 This Contract also incorporates Do Nation’s Website Terms and Conditions available at www.wearedonation.com/terms-and-conditions/ (as updated from time to time, the "Website Terms and Conditions") and the Privacy Policy available at www.wearedonation.com/privacy-policy/ (as updated from time to time, the "Privacy Policy") and all other rules, policies and procedures that may be published from time to time on the Website, each of which may be updated by Do Nation from time to time without notice to you.

2.3 We may revise this Contract from time to time by updating this page and the revised Registered User Terms and Conditions will take effect when they are posted on the Website. It is Your responsibility to check this Contract periodically for changes. Your continued use of the Services following the posting of the revised Registered User Terms and Conditions constitutes Your acceptance of those changes.

2.4 We may change, suspend, or discontinue the Services or any part at any time with or without notice. Where notice is given, it may be posted on the Website or sent by email. We retain discretion to impose limits on certain features or services, and/or restrict Your access to parts or all of the Services without notice or liability.

2.5 The term of this Contract commences on the date that you register and accept these terms and shall continue until otherwise terminated in accordance with this Contract (the "Term").

2.6 The Contract constitutes the entire agreement between the parties. You acknowledge that You have not relied on any statement, promise or representation made or given by or on behalf of Do Nation which is not set out or referred to in the Contract.

2.7 This Contract applies to the exclusion of any other terms that You seek to impose or incorporate, or which are implied by trade, custom, practice or course of dealing.

2.8 If You access or use the Services on behalf of a firm or other legal entity, You represent that you have full authority to bind such entity to this Contract and that it is fully binding on it.

3. User Tiers

3.1 Users will be either Individual Users or Organisational Users. In the event an Individual User account and an Organisational User account are registered using the same registration details, each will be treated as a separate account registered subject to the terms and conditions attaching to the corresponding account categorisation. Individual Users will have access to the Individual Tier of Services and Organisational Users will have access to the Pro Tier or Plus Tier of Services (depending on the Tier to which they register).

3.2 Organisational Users will be permitted to register Managed Users to their account. In order to access the Services, Managed Users will be required to register as Individual Users and will be subject to this Contract on such basis.

3.3 Newly registered Organisational Users will be entitled to register for a free two-week trial as a Pro User (a “Free Trial”). During a Free Trial the user (a “Free Trial User”) will be permitted to register up to a maximum of 10 Managed Users (or such other number as may be agreed in writing between Do Nation and the Free Trial User) and will otherwise have access to the Pro Tier of Services. In order to continue to access the Services following the expiry of the Free Trial, the Free Trial User must, prior to such expiry, register as either a Pro User or a Plus User.

3.4 In the event a Free Trial User fails to register as either a Pro User or a Plus User prior to the expiry of the Free Trial, the Free Trial User will cease to have any further access to the Services and this Contract will be deemed terminated in accordance with clause 11. At such point, any Managed Users registered to such Organisational User’s account and who have not activated their registrations will have their profiles deleted from Do Nation’s systems. Managed Users registered to such Organisational User’s account who have registered as Individual Users will retain their access to the Individual Tier Services and be treated as Individual Users for all purposes of this Contract.

3.5 Organisational Users will, either during or following the Free Trial or on initial registration, as applicable, be able to register as either Pro Users or Plus Users. A Pro User may upgrade to a Plus User registration and a Plus User may downgrade to a Pro User registration at any time by emailing support[at]wearedonation.com.

3.6 The Free Trial is intended as a way for an organisation to sample the Pro Tier Services before committing to a paid registration. Each user (and, where applicable, the organisation represented by such user) is entitled to one Free Trial only. In the event that Do Nation considers (in its absolute discretion) that the Free Trial offer is in any way being abused by a user (for instance, where Do Nation suspects that a user has obtained more than one Free Trial) Do Nation reserves the right to immediately terminate the Free Trial and restrict the relevant user and/or their organisation from subscribing to any further Free Trials or the Services generally.

3.7 Do Nation shall use reasonable endeavours to make available to You the Services applicable to the Tier You have selected throughout the Term.

3.8 Do Nation warrants to You that the Services will be provided using reasonable care and skill.

3.9 Any descriptive matters or advertising issued by Do Nation, are issued or published for the sole purpose of giving an approximate idea of the Services described in them. They shall not form part of this Contract or have any contractual force.

3.10 Do Nation shall have the right, at any time, to take down Your Business Page, Campaign Pages, or any pledge created by You that does not comply with the content standards set out in the "Uploading material to this Website" section of the Website Terms and Conditions or which, in Do Nation's opinion (exercising absolution discretion), is otherwise unsuitable or is contrary to Do Nation's goals.

4. Your Obligations

4.1 You shall:

4.1.1 be solely responsible for Your use of the Services and ensure that you use the Services in an appropriate way;

4.1.2 co-operate with Do Nation in all matters relating to the Services;

4.1.5 treat all user identification codes, passwords or any credentials as confidential, and not disclose them to any third party. Do Nation has the right to disable any user identification code, password or credential, if in Do Nation's opinion (exercising absolute discretion) You have failed to comply with any of the provisions of this Contract or our Privacy Policy;

4.1.6 if You choose, or you are provided with, a user identification code or password as part of the Website's security procedures, treat such information as confidential, and not disclose it to any third party. Do Nation has the right to disable any user identification code or password, whether chosen by You or allocated by Do Nation, at any time, if in Do Nation's opinion (exercising absolute discretion) you have failed to comply with any of the provisions of these Terms and Conditions or our Privacy Policy;

4.1.7 comply with, and procure that Your officers, employees, agents and sub-contractors and all persons engaged by or authorised by You comply with, the Website Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy when using the Website;

4.2 If Do Nation's performance of any of its obligations under the Contract is prevented or delayed by any act or omission by You or failure by You to perform any relevant obligation (Your Default):

4.2.1 Do Nation shall without limiting its other rights or remedies have the right to suspend performance of the Services until You remedy Your Default, and to rely on Your Default to relieve it from the performance of any of its obligations to the extent Your Default prevents or delays Do Nation's performance of any of its obligations;

4.2.2 Do Nation shall not be liable for any costs or losses sustained or incurred by You arising directly or indirectly from Do Nation's failure or delay to perform any of its obligations as set out in this clause 4.2; and

4.2.3 You shall reimburse Do Nation on written demand for any costs or losses sustained or incurred by Do Nation arising directly or indirectly from Your Default.

5. Charges and payment

Individual Users

5.1 If You are an Individual User, then You may use the Website and the Individual Tier Services free of charge.

Free Trial Users

5.2 Free Trial Users may use the Website and Pro Tier Services free of charge during the course of the Free Trial. In the event that You are a Free Trial User and subsequently register as a Pro User or a Plus User prior to the expiry of the Free Trial, You will pay Charges based on the number of Managed Users registered under Your account at the time of registration as a Pro User or Plus User in the manner detailed below under the heading “Pro Users and Plus Users” .

Pro Users and Plus Users

5.3 If You are a Pro User or a Plus User, you shall pay Charges on the basis of the number of Managed Users you have registered under your account from time to time (whether or not they activate their account and make any pledges). The current Charges for Pro Users and Plus Users are set out on the Do Nation Website at this page.

5.4 Do Nation shall have the right to make changes to the Charges at any time. Do Nation shall inform of You of any such changes by email or by a notice on the Website. Any such changes to the Charges shall (unless otherwise stated) apply from the month following the assessment by Do Nation.

5.5 The Charges are payable by You in advance on a monthly basis or as may otherwise be agreed in writing between You and Do Nation. The amount payable under each invoice issued to You will be based on the number of Managed Users registered to Your account at the time the invoice was raised (whether or not such Managed Users have activated their accounts or made any pledges); as adjusted in accordance with clauses 5.6 and/or 5.7 to account for the addition or removal of Managed Users to or from Your account and/or any change to the Tier to which You are subscribed.

5.6 In the event that (i) one or more additional Managed Users is registered to Your account during the monthly billing period to which an invoice relates, or (ii) one or more Managed Users is removed from Your account during such period, the invoice for the subsequent monthly billing period will be adjusted to ensure that the Charges for the preceding monthly billing period are levied on the basis of the actual time that each Managed User was registered to Your account. By way of example, if a Managed User was added to Your account half way through the monthly billing period, the invoice for the subsequent monthly billing period would include an additional charge with respect to such Managed User, calculated as half of the charge that would be levied if such Managed User was registered for the full month. Similarly, if a Managed User was removed from Your account half way through a monthly billing period the invoice for the subsequent monthly billing period would be reduced by an equivalent amount.

5.7 In the event You either upgrade from the Pro Tier to the Plus Tier or downgrade from the Plus Tier to the Pro Tier part way through a monthly a billing period, Your Charges for the relevant monthly billing period will be prorated such that You will be charged the Charges applicable to the Pro Tier for the portion of the relevant month You were a Pro User and the Charges applicable to the Plus Tier for the remainder of the month.

5.8 Do Nation shall be entitled to issue an invoice for the Charges to You to the email address provided by You on a monthly basis, at the start of each monthly billing period.

5.9 You shall pay each invoice submitted by Do Nation:

5.9.1 within 30 days of the date of the invoice (the “Due Date”); and

5.9.2 in full and in cleared funds in such manner as we may require from time to time, and time for payment shall be of the essence of the Contract.

5.10 All amounts payable by You under the Contract are exclusive of amounts in respect of value added tax chargeable for the time being (VAT). Where any taxable supply for VAT purposes is made under the Contract by Do Nation to You, You shall, on receipt of a valid VAT invoice from Do Nation, pay to Do Nation such additional amounts in respect of VAT as are chargeable on the supply of the Services at the same time as payment is due for the supply of the Services.

5.11 Without limiting any other right or remedy of Do Nation, if You fail to make any payment due to Do Nation under the Contract by the Due Date, Do Nation shall have the right to charge interest on the overdue amount at the rate of 4% per cent per annum above the then current Barclays Bank Plc's base rate accruing on a daily basis from the Due Date until the date of actual payment of the overdue amount, whether before or after judgment, and compounding quarterly.

5.12 You shall pay all amounts due under the Contract in full without any deduction or withholding except as required by law and You shall not be entitled to assert any credit, set-off or counterclaim against Do Nation in order to justify withholding payment of any such amount in whole or in part. Do Nation may, without limiting its other rights or remedies, set off any amount owing to it by You against any amount payable by Do Nation to You.

5.13 Do Nation reserves the right to agree alternative fee arrangements with users who require Do Nation to provide bespoke services and may also offer fee discounts to users who agree to pay their Charges either quarterly or annually in advance. In the event of any conflict between such arrangements and this Contract, the terms of such arrangements shall prevail.

7. Intellectual property rights

7.1 All Intellectual Property Rights in or arising out of or in connection with the Services shall be owned by Do Nation (or its licensors).

7.3 You grant Do Nation a non-exclusive licence to use Your trade marks, and all other materials (including associated Intellectual Property Rights) provided to Do Nation by You in connection with the Services and Do Nation's operations. Any goodwill derived from the use by Do Nation of Your trade marks shall accrue to You.

7.5 The licences provided in this clause 7 shall terminate automatically when the Contract terminates.

8. Confidentiality

A party (Receiving Party) shall keep in strict confidence all technical or commercial know-how, specifications, inventions, processes or initiatives which are of a confidential nature and have been disclosed to the Receiving Party by the other party (Disclosing Party), its employees, agents or subcontractors, and any other confidential information concerning the Disclosing Party's business or its products or its services which the Receiving Party may obtain. The Receiving Party shall restrict disclosure of such confidential information to such of its employees, agents or subcontractors as need to know it for the purpose of discharging the Receiving Party's obligations under the Contract, and shall ensure that such employees, agents or subcontractors are subject to obligations of confidentiality corresponding to those which bind the Receiving Party. This clause 8 shall survive termination of the Contract.

9. Data Protection

9.1 When pledging to carry out a Do Action, users can opt-in to share their name and email address with the owner of the campaign that the user pledged to support, so that they can contact the user to thank them or to share other relevant information with them. For some Do Actions, a user can also opt-in to share their name and email address with the sponsor of that Do Action so that they may provide further information, support and advice about a user’s pledge to them and measure its impact. If the sponsor of a Do Action is running a prize draw in relation to that Do Action, and a user wishes to enter the prize draw, the user will need to opt-in to share their name and email address with the sponsor of the Do Action.

9.2 Do Nation and You acknowledge that for the purposes of the General Data Protection Regulation 2016/279/EU (GDPR), Do Nation is the data controller, and to the extent that You are an owner of a campaign or a sponsor of a pledge and You are receiving personal data pursuant to Clause 9.1 above, You are the data processor of any personal data and You hereby agree to comply in full with all applicable data protection legislation (including the GDPR). You further agree that You shall process any such personal data only on and subject to the instructions of Do Nation. For the avoidance of doubt, this means that You shall only process and use the personal data You receive pursuant to Clause 9.1 above, for the purposes set out in Clause 9.1 above, and for no other purpose. You further agree that You will (i) implement appropriate technical and organisational measures as are necessary to enable Do Nation to respond to any request for the exercise of an individual right; (ii) notify Do Nation of Your intention to appoint any sub-processor provided that, if Do Nation does not object to the appointment of the proposed sub-processor, the sub-processor is engaged pursuant to a written agreement which contains the same obligations of processors in respect of personal data as are set out in this Clause 9; (iii) assist Do Nation to comply with its obligations under the GDPR to process personal data securely, to respond to a personal data breach, to undertake data protection impact assessments and to engage in any mandatory consultation with a supervisory authority; (iv) at the election of Do Nation, return or destroy all personal data held or processed by or on behalf of You upon termination of this Agreement, including each copy of such personal data unless retention of a copy is required by applicable law or regulation; (v) inform Do Nation without undue delay, and, in any event, with 24 hours, of the occurrence of a personal data breach; and (iv) without prejudice to the foregoing, comply with any obligation directly applicable to a data processor under the GDPR. In this Clause 9, the terms “data processor”, “data controller”, “personal data” “personal data breach”, “supervisory authority” and “data protection impact assessment” shall have the meaning set out in the GDPR.

9.3 If You upload employee or other individuals personal data as part of an Your campaign, Do Nation will be the data processor of that data and You will be the data controller. Once that employee or individual activates their Do Nation user account, they will enter a direct contract with Do Nation and Do Nation will become the data controller in respect of that user’s personal data.

9.4 Once Your subscription expires, Do Nation will permanently delete the personal data of any employees or individuals who did not activate their account with Do Nation.

10. Limitation of liability

10.1 Nothing in this Contract shall limit or exclude Do Nation's liability for:

10.2.2 Do Nation's total liability to You in respect of all other losses arising under or in connection with the Contract, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), breach of statutory duty, or otherwise, shall in no circumstances exceed 100% of the Charges paid under the Contract (for clarity, which may be £nil for Individual Tier users and Free Trial Users).

10.3 Except as set out in this Contract, all warranties, conditions and other terms implied by statute or common law are, to the fullest extent permitted by law, excluded from the Contract.

10.4 This clause 10 shall survive termination of the Contract.

11.3.2 immediately suspend access to Website features and provision of the Services under the Contract or any other contract between You and Do Nation.

11.4 If You have failed to pay any amount due under the Contract on the Due Date and Do Nation has suspended Your access to Website features and the provision of the Services pursuant to 11.3.2, and then You subsequently pay the overdue amount to Do Nation, Do Nation shall reinstate Your access to Website features and the provision of the Services. You shall not be entitled to any reduction in Charges or refund with respect to the period during which Your access to Website features and the provision of the Services was suspended.
