If you are a donor, you represent and warrant that
SuperKind has partnered with Charities Trust (charity registration number 327489; company registration number 02142757; HMRC approved in England and Wales) which keeps a database of UK registered charities that have gone through a verification process conducted by Charities Trust to ensure that donations are going to a legitimate cause (“eligible charities”). Any organisations that are nominated by a donor and not listed as an eligible charity will be subject to a verification process conducted by Charities Trust and, if such verification process is successful, will be added to the database of eligible charities.
After the deduction of the applicable fee pursuant to Clause 27 each donation that you make through our site will go to Charities Trust, which will process and pay the donation to the nominated eligible charity. Once received and accepted by Charities Trust, donations are irrevocable gifts, and Charities Trust has exclusive and legal control over all donated amounts. Donations to Charities Trust are recognised as charitable contributions for UK tax purposes.
When making a donation, you can choose whether your donation appears as anonymous on our site or whether your name is shown. You can also choose whether your details are passed on to the nominated charity that benefits from your donation.
We do not represent or warrant that your donations will be used for any particular purpose, and we shall not be responsible for any dissatisfaction you may have regarding a charity’s use of any donation you may make through our site or for any misuse or non-use of such donations once it has been transferred to Charities Trust.
Please be aware that no donations will be refunded for any reason, subject to applicable local laws.
When you make a donation, the transaction is final and not disputable unless unauthorised use of your payment card or other payment method is proved. If you become aware of fraudulent use of your card, or if your card is lost or stolen, you must notify your card provider in accordance with its reporting rules.
When you make a donation through our site, we may ask you if you want to add Gift Aid to your donation. If you complete a Gift Aid declaration in respect of your donation made through our site, Charities Trust will process the Gift Aid claim with HMRC and will process any resulting payment to the nominated charity. Please read the Gift Aid declaration carefully before you complete it. Please note that Gift Aid will not be able to be claimed in the event that your address/post code is entered incorrectly.
When you complete a Gift Aid declaration, you are giving your consent for us to send certain personal information we hold about you to Charities Trust, including your name, address and email address. We will share this information with Charities Trust on the basis that they will only use it to collect the Gift Aid payment, and subject to the requirements of the applicable data protection laws.
By completing a Gift Aid declaration, you confirm that if you pay less income and/or capital gains tax in the current tax year than the amount of Gift Aid claimed on all of your donations you will be responsible to pay any difference to HMRC.
In order to enable us to accept your donations and to transfer them to Charities Trust, we use the electronic payment processing infrastructure provided by Stripe. Stripe charge a payment processing fee for each transaction. Currently this fee is 1.2% of the donated amount plus 20p for major UK & EU credit/debit cards. The fee is 2.9% plus 20p for non EU and American Express cards. This fee is deducted from the donated amount before the funds are transferred to Charities Trust, who then distributes them to the nominated eligible charities.
When you make a donation, we will ask you whether you would like to make a voluntary contribution to SuperKind in addition to your charity donation. We use this income to cover the costs of operating and maintaining our organisation, including our site.
SuperKind do not take any commission or charge any fees on donations made through our platform.
Charities are not charged in respect of any donations made on our site.
In addition to donations through our fundraising platform, we process payments to SuperKind on our ‘Support Us’ page and through the ‘Social Impact Schools Award’ payment tab.
Please be aware that no payments will be refunded for any reason, subject to applicable local laws.
When you make a payment, the transaction is final and not disputable unless unauthorised use of your payment card or other payment method is proved. If you become aware of fraudulent use of your card, or if your card is lost or stolen, you must notify your card provider in accordance with its reporting rules.
Featuring on SuperKind is completely free for charities.
Charities are free to update, suspend, or withdraw their page at any time by emailing us on [email protected] or using our Contact Form. We commit to responding within 5 working days, at which stage we can action the request with immediate effect. In the event that a charity decides to withdraw entirely (rather than suspend), we will delete all content from our files.
Likewise, we can suspend or remove a charity’s page from our site. If we intend to do so, we will notify the charity with 5 working days’ prior notice, unless circumstances require immediate action.
The Social Impact Schools Award runs between the 1st September and the 31st July date. Schools are required to pay £100+VAT to register (unless exempt) and the registration fee is non-refundable. Participating schools are responsible for ensuring that the information that they provide is true to the best of their knowledge. SuperKind has the right to ask for evidence of actions at any point throughout the year. Schools will be informed of whether they have achieved the award by the 1st September. This decision is final and no exceptions will be made for schools who have not met the minimum criteria for the award.
All queries or notices given by you to us should be made by using one of our Contact Us options, unless written form is required by law. In such case, notices should be given to SuperKind Education C.IC. or SuperKind Children’s Fundraising Ltd, 85 Great Portland Street, 1st Floor, London, W1W 7LT.
We may give notice to you by posting either on our site, or to the e-mail or postal address you provide to us when making a donation or registering on our site. If we give you notice in your capacity as an account holder and you are a child, the notice will [also] be sent to the parent that has approved your account.
Notice will be deemed received and properly served immediately when posted on our site, 24 hours after an e-mail or contact form is sent, or three (3) days after the date of posting of any letter.
In proving the service of any notice, it will be sufficient to prove, in the case of a letter, that such letter was properly addressed, stamped and placed in the post and, in the case of an e-mail that such e-mail was sent to the specified e-mail address of the addressee.
The failure or delay by either you or us to exercise any right or remedy under these terms of use shall not be construed as a waiver of that right or remedy, and it shall not prevent or restrict its exercise at any subsequent time.
These terms of use and any documents expressly referred to in them represent the entire agreement between us in relation to the subject matter and supersede any prior agreement, understanding or arrangement between us, whether oral or in writing.
If any provision of these terms of use shall be found to be invalid, unlawful or unenforceable, such invalidity, unlawfulness or unenforceability shall not affect the other provisions of these terms of use which shall remain in full force and effect.
If any provision of these terms of use is so found to be invalid, unlawful or unenforceable but would be valid, lawful and enforceable if some part of the provision were deleted, the provision in question shall apply with such modification(s) as may be necessary to make it valid.
If you are a consumer, please note that these terms of use, their subject matter and their formation, are governed by English law. You and we both agree that the courts of England and Wales will have exclusive jurisdiction except that if you are a resident of Northern Ireland you may also bring proceedings in Northern Ireland, and if you are resident of Scotland, you may also bring proceedings in Scotland.
If you are a business, these terms of use, their subject matter and their formation (and any non-contractual disputes or claims) are governed by English law. We both agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.
