These Terms of Use & Donation Terms (“Terms”) govern your use of domain_domain (the “Website”), operated by name_name (the “Organization,” “we,” “us,” or “our”).
By accessing or using the Website, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree with these Terms, please do not use the Website.
1. About the Website
The Website provides information about the Organization, animals in need, animal rescue and assistance activities, and opportunities to support the Organization through donations.
Information published on the Website is provided for general informational, charitable, educational, and fundraising purposes.
2. Use of the Website
You may use the Website for lawful purposes and in accordance with these Terms.
You agree not to:
- use the Website for unlawful or fraudulent purposes;
- interfere with the operation or security of the Website;
- attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Website or its systems;
- introduce malicious software, code, or other harmful material;
- copy, reproduce, modify, distribute, or commercially exploit Website content without permission; or
- use information from the Website in a way that could harm the Organization, animals, donors, or other individuals.
We may restrict or terminate access to the Website if we reasonably believe that these Terms have been violated.
3. Website Content and Animal Information
The Website may contain photographs, names, descriptions, stories, medical information, rescue information, and other content concerning animals.
We make reasonable efforts to keep information accurate and current. However, animal conditions, medical situations, locations, treatment status, availability, and other circumstances may change.
Accordingly, information about an animal may become outdated or inaccurate after it is published.
The publication of information about an animal does not guarantee that the animal remains in the care of the Organization, remains available for adoption, or continues to require financial assistance.
4. Photographs and Intellectual Property
Unless otherwise indicated, content published on the Website, including photographs, text, graphics, logos, design elements, and other materials, is owned by or used with permission by the Organization or its respective rights holders.
You may view and access Website content for personal, non-commercial purposes.
You may not reproduce, republish, modify, distribute, sell, or commercially use Website content without prior written permission, except where permitted by applicable law.
5. Donations
The Website may provide opportunities to make voluntary financial donations to support the Organization and its charitable activities.
A donation is voluntary and is not a purchase of goods or services.
By initiating a donation, you confirm that you are authorized to use the payment method selected for the transaction.
6. Payment Processing
The Website does not collect or store payment card information.
When you select an option to make a donation, you may be redirected to Stripe, a third-party payment service, to complete the transaction.
Payment information is entered directly into Stripe and is processed by Stripe under its applicable terms, privacy practices, and security procedures.
The Organization does not receive or store complete payment card details through the Website.
The availability and processing of a donation may depend on Stripe and the payment method selected by the donor.
7. Use of Donations
Unless a specific donation campaign expressly states otherwise, donations may be used at the Organization’s discretion to support its charitable mission and activities, including animal rescue, veterinary care, food, shelter, transportation, rehabilitation, supplies, and other expenses associated with helping animals in need.
If a donation is made in connection with a particular animal, campaign, or fundraising appeal, circumstances may change after the donation is received.
If the original purpose of a donation can no longer reasonably be fulfilled, the Organization may use the funds for a similar or related charitable purpose consistent with its mission, to the extent permitted by applicable law.
8. Donation Amounts and Confirmation
The donor is responsible for confirming the donation amount and payment details before completing a transaction.
Donation confirmations or receipts may be provided through the payment platform or by other means, depending on the donation method used.
The Organization is not responsible for delays, errors, or failures caused by third-party payment providers, banks, payment networks, or other services outside its reasonable control.
9. Refunds and Donation Corrections
If you believe a donation was made in error, was duplicated, or was made without authorization, please contact the Organization as soon as reasonably possible.
Refund requests will be reviewed individually and handled in accordance with applicable law, the circumstances of the transaction, and any applicable payment-provider procedures.
Nothing in these Terms limits any rights that cannot lawfully be waived.
10. Tax Information
The tax treatment of a donation depends on the donor’s individual circumstances and applicable law.
Donors are responsible for determining whether a donation is tax-deductible and for maintaining any documentation required for their tax purposes.
Nothing on the Website constitutes tax, legal, or financial advice.
11. Third-Party Services and Links
The Website may contain links to or integrations with third-party services, including Stripe, social media platforms, analytics services, hosting providers, and other external websites or services.
Third-party services operate independently from the Organization and may have their own terms, privacy policies, and practices.
The Organization is not responsible for the content, availability, security, or policies of third-party websites or services.
Your use of a third-party service may be subject to that service’s own terms and policies.

We make reasonable efforts to keep the Website available and functioning properly.
However, we do not guarantee that the Website will always be available, uninterrupted, error-free, or free from harmful components.
The Website may occasionally be unavailable due to maintenance, technical problems, updates, security measures, or circumstances beyond our reasonable control.
13. Disclaimer
The Website and its content are provided for general informational purposes.
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Organization makes no warranties regarding the completeness, accuracy, reliability, availability, or suitability of Website content for any particular purpose.
