Terms of Service
These terms of service (and the relevant country specific terms) (collectively, the "Terms”) “govern your use of the Website and its associated services. Please read these Terms carefully. Your use of the Website and/or and its associated services constitutes your assent to these Terms.

We may update these Terms from time to time. It is your responsibility to review these Terms wherever you access the Website. The latest version of these Terms will govern any future usage by you of the Website and its associated services. The date on which these Terms were last updated is stated at the end of this document.

About the Causes featured on the Website:


The Website allows you to donate for any Cause listed on the Website. Every Cause featured has an agreement with Fondy payment operator authorising Save The Spot to collect donations on its behalf. Causes are listed on this Website at Save The Spot's discretion; however, we are not responsible for the activities of any Cause. 

Donations

By purchasing a ticket on the website, you are making a donation to the relevant Cause. Your donation is not an entry admission. Subject to the requirements of applicable local laws, and what we say below, once your donation is made it will only be refunded to you with the prior written consent of the Cause to whom it has been directed. 


Use of your donation

Save The Spot does not represent or warrant that your donations will be used for any particular purpose and shall not be responsible for any dissatisfaction you may have regarding a Cause's use of any donation you may make through the Website or for any misuse or non-use of such donations by a Cause. After donations are made, all further dealings are solely between you and the Cause to which you donated.

Save The Spot (or any payments processor or card brand we work with) will verify the identity of the Cause listed and undertake any other necessary checks before any funds raised are transferred to the page owner. Save the Spot shall have no liability to donors whatsoever for any use or misuse of donations made using the website. If you have any doubts as to how the money will be spent you should contact the Cause directly to seek reassurance. It is your sole responsibility, as a user of the Website, to ensure that the cause stated to be supported on  the website is one that you wish to support.

Save The Spot Fees

We operate on volounteer basis and 100% of your donation is transfered directly to the Cause. The user is responsible for paying a comission taken by the payment prosessor and the comission is included in the total payment amount. 

Unauthorised donations

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 it is lost or stolen, you must notify your card provider in accordance with its reporting rules. Similarly, if you experience any issues of this nature when using another payment method, such as PayPal, you should contact the provider of that payment method for assistance.

Save The Spot will never email or phone you and ask you to provide all of your payment details.
