  3. Creating and Running a Campaign

    When you, as a Campaign Owner creates a Campaign on the Site and asks for Contributions, you understand that you are entering into separate legal agreements with both Publir and with Contributors, and the following rules apply (in addition to the all other Terms and Additional Policies).

    1. Service Fees. Campaign Owners are charged a Service Fee as a portion of the Contributions they raise (the "Service Fees"). The Service Fees are effective on the date that the Service Fees are posted, and may be updated from time to time. Service Fees will be charged at the then-current rate. In connection receiving Contributions from Contributors, Campaign Owners appoint Publir as the Campaign Owner's limited agent for the sole purpose of receiving, holding, and settling payments to such Campaign Owner. As a Campaign Owner's agent, Publir's receipt of Contributions on a Campaign Owner's behalf is the same as receipt of Contributions by directly by a Campaign Owner.
    2. Right to Withhold Funds. Campaign Owners should not assume that they will receive Contributions made to a Campaign. Disbursement of Contributions to a Campaign Owner may be delayed, or withheld in their entirety, for a number of reasons including, but not limited to, refunds, chargeback disputes, fraud, violation of the Terms or Use or any other policy, or any other situation where Publir determines that Contributions should not be disbursed in its sole discretion. Contributions may also be used to reimburse Publir for any chargebacks and refunds incurred by Publir for a Campaign. Publir may also seek reimbursement from a Campaign Owner by any other lawful means, including by using third-party collection services.
    3. Refunds. Publir offers a limited refund to Contributors in accordance with our Refund Policy. Refunds outside of our Refund Policy must be handled by the Campaign Owner, and Publir has no obligation to provide any refunds or become involved with any dispute between a Campaign Owner and Contributor. Publir reserves the right to terminate User Accounts and remove Campaigns for any abuse of the Refund Policy.
  4. Legal obligations of Campaign Owner

    As a Campaign Owner, you are entering into a legal agreement with a Contributor when they make a Contribution to your Campaign, which includes the following obligations (in addition to the all other Terms and Additional Policies):

    1. Make good faith efforts to fulfill the Perks associated with a Campaign in the timeframe that is communicated to Contributors.
    2. Immediately notify Contributors if there are obstacles or delays.
    3. Respond promptly and truthfully to all questions posed to them by Contributors.
    4. Provide substantive and quality updates at least once a month to Contributors.
    5. If you have received the Contributions from your Campaign, issue refunds to Contributors if you cannot deliver Perks.
    6. Comply with all applicable laws and regulations in the use of Contributions and delivery of Perks.
    7. Comply with EEA Data Controller Obligations. As a Campaign Owner, you (and Publir) will independently fulfill all duties required of data controllers under applicable EEA data protection law (such law shall include, but not be limited to, the EU General Data Protection Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2016/679) (“GDPR”); (iii) the EU e-Privacy Directive (Directive 2002/58/EC), including subsequent variations, such as the Regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council concerning the respect for private life and the protection of personal data in electronic communications and repealing Directive 2002/58/EC (“ePrivacy Regulation”), if enacted).

      Your data controller duties include:

      1. Determining and qualifying the necessary legal basis or bases for your collection or processing of personal information;
      2. Managing and reporting security incidents;
      3. Transfers;
      4. Entering into contracts only with data processors that provide adequate protections for personal data and including appropriate contractual language;
      5. Maintaining records of your data processing activities;
      6. Conducting any required data protection impact assessments; and
      7. Implementing and maintaining all measures required pursuant to Article 32 of the GDPR.
    8. Respond to EEA Data Subject Requests. You and Publir will have an independent obligation to respond to any requests received by either of us from EEA data subjects regarding personal data, including without limitation, those set forth in Chapter III of the GDPR. The party that receives the data request is responsible for responding to the request. Campaign Owner and Publir shall reasonably cooperate and assist each other with these requests, to the extent that is legally permissible. Please remember that as a Campaign Owner, you are solely responsible for fulfilling the obligations of your Campaign and delivering Perks. If you are unable to perform on this, or any of your other legal obligations, you may be subject to legal action by Contributors.
  5. Backing a Campaign

    When a Contributor makes a Contribution to a Campaign, Contributor understands that the following rules and terms apply (in addition to any other Additional Policies as mentioned in the Additional Policies section above).

    1. Voluntary Contributions. All Contributions are made voluntarily and at the sole discretion and risk of the Contributor.
    2. No Guarantee. The date to deliver a Perk is an estimate by the Campaign Owner (not Publir) and there is no guarantee that the Campaign Owner will fulfill and deliver the Perk by that date. Publir does not guarantee that Contributions will be used as promised, that Campaign Owners will deliver Perks, or that the Campaign will achieve its goals. Publir also does not endorse, guarantee, make representations, or provide warranties for or about the quality, safety, morality or legality of any Campaign, Perk or Contribution, or the truth or accuracy of User Content posted on the Services.
    3. Limited Refund. Publir offers a limited refund to Contributors only where the Campaign has not ended, the Contributor has not received a Perk (as confirmed by Publir), and the Contribution has not been sent to the Campaign Owner (full terms of the Refund Policy apply). Publir does not offer refunds outside of our Refund Policy. In any situation where refunds are not available under the Refund Policy, a Contributor should contact the Campaign Owner directly to request a refund. Publir may at its discretion facilitate communications between a Campaign Owner and Contributor, but we have no obligation to do so or to become involved in any way in any dispute.
    4. Credit Card Charges. When you Contribute to a Campaign, your card will be charged the amount of the Contribution after you confirm and submit your payment information.
    5. Communications Between Campaign Owners and Contributors. Once you have made a Contribution to a Campaign, the Campaign Owners may need to contact you to obtain additional information such as shipping address, specific preferences for a Perk (i.e. color or size of a t-shirt), or may ask for your feedback on the Campaign or the Perk. In some instances, to receive the Perk, you may need to provide the requested information within the requested time frame to receive the Perk, otherwise, it will not be fulfilled. Campaign Owners should not ask for information that is not required to fulfill a Perk and should not request sensitive personal information such a Social Security number or credit card/banking information. Please contact us by email, mail, or phone if you receive a request for information that appears to be excessive.
    6. Taxes are your responsibility. Contributors are solely responsible for determining how to treat their Contributions and receipt of any Perks for tax purposes.
  6. Publir’s Role
    1. We do not endorse any User Content. While Publir supports the creation of Campaigns, we only provide the Site for Users to interact. We do not pre-screen any Campaigns or endorse any User Content on our site.
    2. We may remove User Content in our discretion. If you see User Content that violates these Terms, then let us know and we may remove it.

  7. Fees and Taxes
    1. Service Fees. There are no fees for creating an account on the Site. Campaign Owners are charged 15% of the Contributions they raise as Service Fee.

    2. Taxes. Taxing authorities may classify Contributions as taxable income to the Campaign Owner and any beneficiary who will receive funds directly from the applicable Campaign.

  20. Legal Disputes Not Subject to Arbitration Will Be Handled InIndiana and Subject to Indiana Law.

    Publir is in based in Indiana, so for any actions not subject to arbitration, you and Publir agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of a state court located in Indiana or the appropriate Federal County. The Terms and the relationship between you and Publir shall be governed in all respects by the laws of the State of Indiana, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.

  21. Dispute Resolution, Arbitration and Class Action Waiver

    PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT.

    We encourage you to contact us if you have an issue, as most issues can be resolved without the involvement of a court or arbitrator. If negotiations do not resolve any disputes relating to your use of Publir or these Terms, you and we agree to submit the dispute to arbitration. The only exceptions to arbitration are (1) for intellectual property claims alleging misuse, Infringement, or misappropriation of intellectual property; (2) for claims falling within the jurisdiction of small claims court; and (3) where you have opted out of arbitration in accordance with these Terms.

    This arbitration must be administered by JAMS under the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules & Procedures. Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court with jurisdiction. Arbitrations may only take place on an individual basis. No class arbitrations or other grouping of parties is allowed. By agreeing to these terms you are waiving your right to trial by jury or to participate in a class action or representative proceeding; we are also waiving these rights. If this prohibition of class arbitrations or other grouping of parties is deemed unenforceable, then this entire “Dispute Resolution, Arbitration and Class Action Waiver” shall be deemed void and severed from the Terms. We follow the JAMS Policy on Consumer Arbitrations Pursuant to Pre-Dispute Clauses Minimum Standards of Procedural Fairness for all arbitrations done under these terms. Among other things, this means that if you initiate an arbitration against us, you will be required to pay a $250 filing fee, and Publir will pay for the other fees, including arbitrator fees. You are responsible for your own attorneys' fees unless the arbitration rules and/or applicable law provide otherwise. It also means that the arbitration will be held in the county in which you live, or any other location we agree upon. If you do not live in the United States, however, you agree to initiate arbitration in Indiana. If any portion of these terms do not follow that standard, that portion is severed from these terms.

    To file an arbitration, you must: (a) submit a Demand for Arbitration and $250 in filing fees to JAMS; and (b) send one copy of the Demand for Arbitration to Publir at 50542 Glenshire Ct., Granger, Indiana.

    You can opt-out of the arbitration and class action waiver provisions set forth above by sending an email (from your registered email address on Publir) letting us know that you are opting out by contacting us with the subject line, "ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER OPT-OUT" within thirty (30) days of your first use of the Site, or the Effective Date of the first Terms of Use containing an arbitration and class action waiver provision, whichever is later. Otherwise, you agree to arbitrate. If you opt-out of the arbitration and class action waiver provisions set forth above, we will not be subject to them either with respect to any disputes with you.

    Publir will provide thirty (30) days' notice of any changes to this section by updating these Terms, sending you a message, or otherwise notifying you when you are logged into your account.
