WHO WE ARE

When we refer to “we” (or “our” or “us”), that means Pushpay Holdings Limited and all its wholly-owned subsidiaries comprising the Pushpay Group. Our headquarters are in New Zealand but we operate and have offices in the United States. Address details for all Pushpay offices are available on our Contact Us page.

At Pushpay, we build and provide solutions that drive participation and generosity between organizations and their members. For more information, visit the About Us section of our Website.

When you use our Services, you’re trusting us with your information. We understand this is a big responsibility and work hard to protect your information and put you in control.

This notice applies to pushpay.com and any other websites we own or operate (collectively, our “Website”) and all products and services we provide, including our online and mobile giving, payments, engagement services, products, and applications, and any other apps or services we may offer. For the purpose of this notice, we’ll just call them our “Services.”

When we say “Personal Data” or “personal information”: we mean identifiable information about you, including like your name, email, address, telephone number, bank account details, payment information, or other online identifiers. If you can’t be identified (for example, when Personal Data has been aggregated and anonymized) then this notice doesn’t apply. Check out our User Agreement for more information on how we treat your other data.

By using the Services, you consent to the collection and use of information by us as set forth in this Privacy Policy. If we decide to change our Privacy Policy, we will post those changes on this page so that you will always be aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what limited circumstances, if ever, we disclose it. Continued access or use of Services shall constitute your express acceptance of any modifications to this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to the Privacy Policy, you must immediately cease using the Services.

This Privacy Policy does not cover information that you submit on other websites that are not operated by us, even if we communicate with you on those sites. For example, if you post something on Facebook, Twitter, or YouTube, that information is governed by the privacy policies on those websites, and is not governed by this Privacy Policy.

OUR PRINCIPLES OF DATA PROTECTION

Our approach to data protection is built around three key principles. They’re at the heart of everything we do relating to Personal Data.

Trust: Trust is very important to us and we know it’s important to you. When you entrust us with Personal Data, we understand this is a big responsibility and being good data stewards is of paramount importance to us.

Transparency: We are open, honest and transparent in how we treat your Personal Data.

Security: We believe that faith-based organizations not-for-profits, and all organizations deserve access to solutions that champion leading approaches to security. We’re committed to protecting your Personal Data and have appropriate technical and organisational measures in place designed to keep your data safe and secure. For more information about security, check out our Security Page.

HOW WE COLLECT YOUR DATA

When you visit our Website or applications, or use our other Services, we collect Personal Data. The ways we collect it can be broadly categorized into the following:

Information you provide to us directly: When you visit or use some parts of our Website, applications and/or other Services, we may receive information from you, for example, when you register for an account, make a payment, or provide information to us in any other way through your use of the Services). For example, we ask for your contact information when you sign up for an account, respond to a job application or an email offer, participate in community forums, join us on social media, take part in training and events, contact us with questions or request support, and you may provide us with payment details when you set up an account for purposes of making or receiving payments. If you don’t want to provide us with Personal Data, you don’t have to, but it might mean you can’t use some parts of our Website, applications, or other Services.

Information we collect automatically: We collect some information about you automatically when you visit our Website, applications, or use our other Services, like your IP address and device type. We also collect information when you navigate through our Website, applications, or other Services, including what pages you looked at and what links you clicked on. This information is useful for us as it helps us get a better understanding of how you’re using our Website, applications and other Services so that we can continue to provide the best experience possible (e.g., by personalizing the content you see).

Some of this information is collected using cookies and similar tracking technologies. If you want to find out more about the types of cookies we use, why, and how you can control them, take a look at our Cookie Notice.

Information we get from third parties: The majority of information we collect, we collect directly from you. Sometimes we might collect Personal Data about you from other sources, such as individuals or organizations who use our Services, publicly available materials or trusted third parties like our marketing and research partners. We use this information to supplement the Personal Data we already hold about you, in order to better inform, personalize and improve our services, and to validate the Personal Data you provide.

HOW WE USE YOUR DATA

First and foremost, we use your Personal Data to operate our Website and applications and provide you with any other Services you’ve requested, and to manage our relationship with you. We also use your Personal Data for other purposes, which may include the following:

To communicate with you. This may include:

providing you with information you’ve requested from us (like training or education materials) or information we are required to send to you;
operational communications, like changes to our Website, applications, or other Services, security updates, or assistance with using our Website, applications, or other Services;
marketing communications (for example, about a product or service we think you might be interested in based on your marketing preferences); and
asking you for feedback or to take part in any research we are conducting (which we may engage a third party to assist with).

To support you: This may include assisting with the resolution of technical support issues or other issues relating to the Website, applications, or other Services, whether by email, in-app support or otherwise.

To enhance our Services and develop new ones: For example, by tracking and monitoring your use of Website, applications, and other Services so we can keep improving, or by carrying out technical analysis of our Website, applications, and other Services so that we can optimize your user experience and provide you with more efficient tools.

To protect: So that we can detect and prevent any fraudulent or malicious activity, and make sure that everyone is using our Website, applications, and other Services fairly and in accordance with our terms of use.

To market to you: In addition to sending you marketing communications, we may also use your Personal Data to display targeted advertising to you online – through our own Website, applications, and other Services or through third party websites and their platforms.

To analyze, aggregate and report: We may use the Personal Data we collect about you and other users of our Website, applications, and Services (whether obtained directly or from third parties) to produce aggregated and anonymized analytics and reports, which we may share publicly or with third parties.

There will be times when we need to share your Personal Data with third parties. We will only disclose your Personal Data to:

other companies in the Pushpay group of companies;
third party service providers and partners who assist and enable us to use the Personal Data to, for example, support delivery of, or provide functionality on, our Website, applications, or our Services, or to market or promote our Services to you;
regulators, law enforcement bodies, government agencies, courts or other third parties where we think it’s necessary to comply with applicable laws or regulations, or to exercise, establish or defend our legal rights. Where possible and appropriate, we will notify you of this type of disclosure;
an actual or potential buyer (and its agents and advisers) in connection with an actual or proposed purchase, merger or acquisition of any part of our business; and
others where we have your consent.

INTERNATIONAL DATA TRANSFERS

When we share data, it may be transferred to, and processed in, countries other than the country you live in – such as to the United States, where our data hosting provider’s servers are located. These countries may have laws different to what you’re used to. Rest assured, where we disclose Personal Data to a third party in another country, we put safeguards in place to ensure your Personal Data remains protected.

For individuals in the European Economic Area (EEA), this means that your data may be transferred outside of the EEA. Where your Personal Data is transferred outside the EEA, it will only be transferred to countries that have been identified as providing adequate protection for EEA data (like New Zealand), or to a third party where we have approved transfer mechanisms in place to protect your Personal Data – for example, by entering into the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses, or by ensuring the entity is Privacy Shield certified (for transfers to US-based third parties). For further information, please contact us using the details set out in the Contact us section below.

EU-US AND SWISS-US PRIVACY SHIELD FRAMEWORKS

With respect to Personal Data concerning individuals in the EU and Switzerland, we comply with the EU-US and Swiss-US Privacy Shield Frameworks as set forth by the US Department of Commerce.

Pushpay adheres to and will abide by the Privacy Shield Principles of Notice, Choice, Accountability for Onward Transfer, Security, Data Integrity and Purpose Limitation, Access, and Recourse, Enforcement, and Liability when processing such Personal Data.

Pushpay is responsible for the processing of Personal Data it receives under each Privacy Shield Framework and subsequently transfers to a third party acting as an agent on its behalf. We comply with the Privacy Shield Principles for all onward transfers of Personal Data from the EEA and Switzerland, including the onward transfer liability provisions unless we can prove we are not responsible for the event giving rise to the damage.

With respect to Personal Data received or transferred pursuant to the Privacy Shield Frameworks, we are subject to the regulatory enforcement powers of the U.S. Federal Trade Commission. In certain situations, we may be required to disclose Personal Data in response to lawful requests by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements.

For more information about the Privacy Shield, see the US Department of Commerce’s Privacy Shield website located at: https://www.privacyshield.gov. To review our certification on the Privacy Shield list, see the US Department of Commerce’s Privacy Shield self-certification list located at: https://www.privacyshield.gov/list.

An individual has the possibility, under certain conditions, to invoke binding arbitration for complaints regarding Privacy Shield compliance not resolved by any of the other Privacy Shield mechanisms. Please refer to Privacy Shield Annex I for additional information: https://www.privacyshield.gov/article?id=ANNEX-I-introduction

If there is any conflict between the terms in this Privacy Policy and the Privacy Shield Principles, the Privacy Shield Principles shall govern.

LOCATION-BASED SERVICES

Our applications collects and records each user’s location, provided that users have given their consent and their device settings allow it. This location information is used to identify organizations in a user’s proximity and to pinpoint the location of a transaction for security purposes (which we refer to as “location-based services“). If you choose to disable any location-based services on your device and/or opt out of any location-based services through the Application’s Settings menu, you will not be able to utilize certain features of our services. By enabling location-based services on your device, you agree and acknowledge that (1) device data we collect from you is directly relevant to your use of the services, (2) we may provide location-based services related to and based on your then-current location, and (3) we may use any such information collected in connection with the provision of location-based services in connection with its provision of our services and as otherwise provided for in this Privacy Policy.

INTEGRATED SERVICES

You may be given the option to access or register for our Services through the use of your user name and passwords for certain services provided by third parties (each of which we refer to as an “integrated service”). By doing this, you authorize us to access and store the credentials you provide and your name. You should check your privacy settings on the integrated service to understand and change the information sent to us through that integrated service. Please review each integrated service’s terms of use and privacy policies carefully before using their services and connecting to our services.

INTERACTIVE FEATURES

Our Services may contain interactive functionality that allows you to engage with other users on the services, post comments to forums, to make prayer requests, to upload photographs and other content (which we refer to as “User Materials“), participate in surveys, and otherwise to interact with our Services and with other users. If you use any interactive functionality on our Services that request or permit you to provide us with Personal Data (including, for example, any services that allow you to post User Materials on any of our Services), we collect the Personal Data that you provide to us in the course of using these interactive features.

CONTESTS AND SWEEPSTAKES

We or our advertisers and other business partners may conduct or sponsor special contests, sweepstakes, and other promotions that users may enter or otherwise participate in on our Services. Certain of these promotions may be co-branded with one of our advertisers or other business partners. In these instances, the collection of your Personal Data may occur directly by the third-party partner on its website or other online service and may be shared with us. The promotion will state the privacy policy or policies governing the collection of such Personal Data.

TECHNOLOGY PARTNERS

Pushpay partners with payment gateways to process credit card payments and those gateways maintain their own privacy policies. Please consult those policies for details on how your Personal Data will be handled by those partners.

SECURITY

Security is a priority for us when it comes to your Personal Data. We’re committed to protecting your Personal Data and have appropriate technical and organizational measures in place to make sure that happens. For more information about security, check out our Security Page.

ABOUT US

Here, we provide information about who we are

At Pushpay, we build and provide solutions that drive participation and generosity between individuals, organizations and communities. For more information, visit the About Us section of our Website.

When we refer to “Pushpay,” “we,” “our,” or “us” that means Pushpay Holdings Limited and all its wholly-owned subsidiaries and affiliates, including, Pushpay USA Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Pushpay USA”), Pushpay Processing, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Pushpay Processing”), Pushpay Pty Ltd. (“Pushpay AU”) and Pushpay (New Zealand) Limited (“Pushpay NZ”). For a complete list of Pushpay’s wholly-owned subsidiaries and affiliates, click here. Please note that as used throughout this Agreement, “including” means “including without limitation” and headings are intended for convenience only and are not be taken into consideration in any construction or interpretation of this agreement or any of its provisions.

For U.S. and Canadian users, for payment processing services we contract through Pushpay Processing, and for services other than payment processing, we contract through Pushpay USA, unless otherwise specified. For Australia and New Zealand Customers, we contract through Pushpay AU and Pushpay NZ, respectively. Pushpay Processing is an independent sales organization that facilitates payment processing services through its trusted Payment Processing Partners (“Processing Partners”). We refer to these payment processing services as “Processing Services”).

ABOUT YOUR INDIVIDUAL ACCOUNT

Here, we provide information about Pushpay accounts of Individuals (as opposed to Organizations or Developers), including how to sign up, use, make or stop a payment (including recurring payments), and how to close an Individual account, as well as our, and each Individual’s, responsibilities around unauthorized payments and errors

SIGNING UP

To sign up as an Individual for a Pushpay account (which we refer to as an “individual account”) and get started, simply download the relevant application(s) for you and your Organizations(s). For more information on how to get started, see the How to Create a Pushpay Account Page.

CLOSING YOUR ACCOUNT

If you are looking to close your individual account, please refer to the How do I Close My Pushpay Account Page or contact care@pushpay.com with your request, including your name, email address and the phone number associated with your account. Closing your account will not stop or modify any payments that have been successfully processed on your account, but will cancel any recurring payment schedules that have not been processed on your account (see MAKING PAYMENTS – Preapproved Payment/Recurring Payments below for more information about your payments). You will remain liable for all obligations related to your individual account even after it is closed and there are situations where you may not be able to close your individual account immediately, including if you have a pending transaction or open claim. Please note that merely deleting a Pushpay application will not close your account, cancel a recurring payment or delete a linked account (for example, a linked Organizational account).

MAKING PAYMENTS

You can use your individual account to authorize and/or make payments to participating Organizations using our Services. If a supported payment method is being used by you for a transaction, you authorize Pushpay to store the payment credentials for future scheduled or unscheduled transactions. By using a payment method to perform transactions through with the Services, you represent and warrant to us that you are authorized to use such payment method with the Services, and that any transactions made using such payment method are for lawful purposes only.

Link or Unlink a Payment Method

You can link or unlink a debit card, credit card, or a bank account to your individual account as a stored method of payment. Please keep your payment method information current (i.e. credit card number and expiration date). If this information changes, we may automatically update it as directed by your bank or card issuer without any action on your part, and we will use such updated payment method information with any existing recurring payment or other payment authorization. To verify that a stored or linked method of payment is valid and authorized, we may periodically prompt you to confirm additional cardholder data such as billing zip or card verification value (CVV).

Choosing Your Method of Payment

You can choose any of the payment methods in your individual account as your preferred payment method. You can select a preferred payment method after logging into your individual account, navigating to the payment methods menu option and selecting the star next to your preferred payment method.

If you have chosen a preferred payment method, it will be shown as the primary method of payment when you make payments.

There may be times when your preferred payment method cannot be used, for example, if you select a credit card that has expired or your bank account has insufficient funds. Also, the availability of certain payment methods may be limited based on that particular Organization you are using. We may also restrict the types of payment methods you can use or accept through the Services at any time in our sole discretion.

If you have not selected a preferred payment method, or your preferred payment method is unavailable or declined, we may select among any of the active payment methods in your individual account.

Recurring Payments

You (as an Individual) can elect with a participating Organization to use Pushpay as the payment service for future payments with that Organization. This allows the Organization to process and receive payments with your authorization either on a one-time, recurring or sporadic basis. Preapproved payments of this type are sometimes referred to as a “billing agreement,” “subscription,” “recurring payment,” “recurring donation,” “reference transaction,” “preauthorized transfer”, “automatic payment”, “installment” or “unscheduled card-on-file”. We refer to such payments as “recurring payments”

If you elect to initiate recurring payments (which includes recurring donations), you are authorizing us to store and automatically charge your selected method of payment in the payment amount (including fees and charges) and frequency that you designated, without further consent or instructions from you. You may pause (and later resume) your recurring payments by following the instructions available by clicking here. If you wish to cancel your recurring payments, you may do so by revoking your authorization at least ten (10) business days prior to the next scheduled payment date. To learn how to cancel your recurring payments (and thereby revoke your authorization), click here.

Once a payment is processed, a payment cannot be cancelled by us or the Organization and we have no obligation to honor any request to stop, correct, reverse or recall a payment. Depending upon an Organization’s preference, we may default to a recurring payment for your individual account, but you may elect a one-time payment. If any changes are made to a stored payment method or linked account is changed, any recurring payments associated with that stored payment method or linked account may be paused, canceled or otherwise adversely affected. Revoking an authorization for a specific recurring payment schedule will not cancel other authorizations for recurring payments. If you pause or cancel a recurring payment, you may still owe the Organization money for the donation, purchase or pledge, or have additional obligations to the Organization for any goods or services that you receive but have not paid for.

If you schedule a recurring payment, the recurring payment amount you specified will be billed to the credit or debit card, bank account, or other account you designate during the setup process. If you want to designate a different credit, debit card or bank or other account, or if there is a change in such cards or accounts, you must change such information through the application. This may temporarily delay your ability to make online payments while your new payment information is verified.

Fees for Individuals

Pushpay does not charge Individuals processing or other fees for making donations, unless the donor elects to help cover processing fees incurred by an Organization by voluntarily contributing more or authorizing us to adjust the size of their originally intended donation using our Donor Covers Fees option utilized by some Organizations. For other types of payments, Pushpay may charge convenience, service, and/or other processing fees to you for making payments.

Your financial institution(s) may also charge fees for processing your payment and/or if you have insufficient funds to cover a payment, and/or for currency conversions. You are solely responsible for these fees and charges.

Currency

Payments are processed using the Organization’s local currency (e.g., for US Organizations, payments are processed in USD). If you utilize a different form of currency from that of an Organization (e.g., the account you make a payment from is in USD and the Organization located in Australia only accepts AUD), payment would be processed in the Organizations form of currency (e.g., AUD in the immediately preceding example) and you (as an Individual) may incur additional fees, which will be charged to your selected payment method (including as part of a recurring payment).

RESPONSIBILITY FOR UNAUTHORIZED PAYMENTS AND ERRORS

Where an Error occurs (as defined below), we will endeavor to rectify the Error if we determine it is solely our fault.

An “Error” is defined as:

An incorrect amount is debited or credited to your account than what you authorized via our Service (which we refer to as an “Unauthorized Transaction”).
A transaction through our Processing Services is missing from or not properly identified in your Pushpay account statement.
Pushpay makes a computational or mathematical error related to your Pushpay account.

The following are NOT considered Errors and you are solely responsible for transactions made in these situations:

If you give someone access to your Pushpay account (by giving them Login Info) and they use your Pushpay account without your knowledge or permission;
Invalidation and reversal of a donation or other payment as a result of refunds, reversals or chargebacks;
Delays that result from Pushpay applying holds, limits or reviews;
Delays related to the time it may take for a transaction to be completed;
Your errors in making a transaction (for example, mistyping an amount of money that you are sending);
Lost or stolen account credentials, or other use of your credentials without your permission by a third party, prior to your notifying us and your card, bank account, and other financial services providers, and having them and us block the compromised accounts; or
Any other non-Error.

In case of Error or questions about donations or other payments made or received, contact us as soon as you can at: care@pushpay.com. You must notify us immediately if you think there may be an Error or if you need more information about an Error. To rectify processing Errors, you must provide any and all information required by us, including your name and identifying information, description of the type of Error or suspected Error, why you believe there is or may be an Error or need more information, and the dollar amount of the suspected Error. If you tell us orally, we may require that you send us your description of events or question in writing. While we will attempt to resolve Errors quickly, we make no representations or warranties as to how quickly we can resolve an Error.

As your sole and exclusive remedy for any Errors, we will endeavor to rectify any Error that we discover to be solely Pushpay’s fault, for example, by appropriately crediting or debiting your account for the difference in credits or debits to your account due to Pushpay’s Error. Pushpay is not responsible for any other losses or damages due to Error or otherwise, regardless of whether such damages constitute direct, indirect, consequential or other forms of damages. For example, in no event is Pushpay responsible for overdraft fees, insufficient funds, inaccurate reporting, or other damages.

You will be considered to have received a Communication from us, if it’s delivered electronically, at the time we post it to our Website or email it to you.

If you do not agree to receive Communications electronically, you must stop using our Services.

Unless you’re communicating with us about a matter where we’ve specified another notice address (for example, our Liability for Unauthorized Transactions and other Errors process), written notices to Pushpay must be sent by postal mail to: Pushpay, Attention: Legal Department, 18300 Redmond Way, Suite #300, Redmond, Washington 98052.

You understand and agree that, to the maximum extent permitted by law, we may, without further notice or warning, monitor or record telephone conversations you or anyone acting on your behalf has with us or our agents for quality control and training purposes or for our own protection. You acknowledge and understand that while your communications with us may be overheard, monitored, or recorded not all telephone lines or calls may be recorded by us, and we do not guarantee that recordings of any particular telephone calls will be retained or retrievable.

INDEMNIFICATION AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

In this section, the Disclaimer of Warranty and Release section and in any other sections where you indemnify or hold us harmless, you agree to an exclusive remedy, agree to arbitration, or we disclaim warranties or liability, we use the term “Pushpay” to refer not only to the entire Pushpay Group of companies, but also to each member of the Pushpay Group’s respective affiliates, and each of their respective directors, officers, employees, shareholders, agents, joint venturers, partners (including integration and marketing partners), service providers and suppliers. Our affiliates include each entity that we control, we are controlled by or we are under common control with.

Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify and hold Pushpay harmless from any claim, demand, action, or lawsuit (including attorneys’ fees) in any way related to your use of Services, your violation of any law or the rights of a third party, breach of this user agreement or any other agreement or policy to which you are subject, and/or the actions or inactions of any third party to whom you grant permissions to use your Pushpay account or access our Website, software, systems (including any networks and servers used to provide any of our services) operated by us or on our behalf, or any of the Services on your behalf.

Limitation of Liability

In no event shall Pushpay be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, exemplary, punitive, or other damages whatsoever (including those resulting from lost profits, lost data, or business interruption) arising out of or relating in any way to the Services, or any related content or information (including as contained within our Website or an application), whether based on warranty, contract, tort, or any other legal theory and whether or not advised of the possibility of such damages. Your sole remedy is to stop using the Services. In no event, shall the maximum cumulative liability of Pushpay to you arising from or in any way relating to your account and use of the Service exceed the greater of: (a) one hundred dollars ($100); or (b) the fees paid to us for our software services in the last six (6) months.

While Pushpay takes steps to check that applications are free from viruses and other malicious content, Pushpay does not assume any responsibility, nor shall Pushpay be liable for any damage to, or viruses that may infect, computers or mobile devices or other property on account of access to or use of the Services. Pushpay does not warrant that any Content (as defined under the heading “Pushpay’s Intellectual Property” below), will be free of viruses, worms, Trojan horses or other destructive programming. You are responsible for implementing procedures sufficient to satisfy your needs for data backup and security. You assume and are solely responsible for all risk in any way related to your use of the Services.

DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY AND RELEASE

No Warranty

Services are provided “as-is” and without any representation or warranty, whether express, implied or statutory. Pushpay specifically disclaims any implied warranties of title, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.

We do not have any control over the products or services provided by Organizations, and we cannot ensure that an Organization or Individual you are dealing with will actually complete the transaction or is authorized to do so. We do not guarantee continuous, uninterrupted or secure access to any part of the Services, and operation of our Website, software, or systems (including any networks and servers used to provide any of the Services) operated by us or on our behalf may be interfered with by numerous factors outside of our control. We will make reasonable efforts to ensure that donations and payments are processed in a timely manner, but we make no representations or warranties regarding the amount of time needed to complete processing because the Services are dependent upon many factors outside of our control, such as acts and omissions of our Processing Partners and delays in the banking system. Some states do not allow the disclaimer of implied warranties, so the foregoing disclaimers may not apply to you to the extent prohibited under applicable law.

Release of Pushpay

If you have a dispute with any other Organization or Individual, you release Pushpay from any and all claims, demands and damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and nature, known and unknown, arising out of or in any way connected with such disputes. In entering into this release you expressly waive any protections, whether statutory or otherwise, including any and all rights and protections under California Civil Code § 1542, which reads: “A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor,” that would otherwise limit the coverage of this release to include only those claims which you may know or suspect to exist in your favor at the time of agreeing to this release.

AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE

This Agreement to Arbitrate affects your legal rights. Please read carefully. Unless you opt out – the procedure is explained below — this Agreement to Arbitrate will eliminate your right to go to court (except for a small claims court having jurisdiction), the right to bring class or collective actions, and the right to have a jury decide a dispute.

For Organizations, many concerns can be resolved quickly to your satisfaction by contacting our Customer Success team or your designated account or customer success representative. For Individuals, many concerns can be resolved quickly to your satisfaction by contacting the associated Organizations who can reach out to us as appropriate. In the event that your concerns are not resolved to your satisfaction and either party desires legal action, you and Pushpay agree to resolve those disputes through binding arbitration or small claims courts instead of in courts of general jurisdiction.

Our Agreement

You and Pushpay each agree that any and all disputes or claims that arise out of or in any way relate to this User Agreement, your account with Pushpay, your use of Pushpay, or the corresponding relationship between you, on the one hand, and Pushpay (including any and all members of the Pushpay Group of companies), its agents, employees, officers, directors, predecessors in interest, successors and assigns, on the other hand, including federal and state statutory claims, common law claims, and those based in contract, tort, fraud, misrepresentation or any other legal theory, shall be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration, rather than in court, except that you may assert claims in small claims court, if your claims qualify and so long as the matter remains in such court and advances only on an individual (non-class, non-representative) basis. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Pushpay may bring any claim relating to infringement of our intellectual property rights in U.S. federal court. This Agreement to Arbitrate is intended to be broadly interpreted. The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Agreement to Arbitrate. You acknowledge that your breach of these terms may cause irreparable harm to Pushpay, the extent of which would be difficult to ascertain. Accordingly, you agree that, in addition to any other remedies to which Pushpay may be legally entitled, Pushpay will have the right to seek immediate injunctive relief in the event of a breach of these terms by you or any of your officers, employees, consultants, or other agents.

Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief

You and Pushpay agree that each of us may bring claims against the other only on an individual basis and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class or representative action or proceeding. Unless both you and Pushpay agree otherwise, the arbitrator(s) may not consolidate or join more than one person’s or party’s claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of a consolidated, representative or class proceeding. Also, the arbitrator(s) may award relief (including monetary, injunctive and declaratory relief) only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief necessitated by that party’s individual claim(s). Any relief awarded cannot affect other Pushpay users.

Arbitration Procedures

Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator or arbitrators instead of a judge or jury, discovery is more limited, and court review of an arbitration award is very limited. However, the arbitrator(s) can award the same damages and relief on an individual basis that a court can award to an individual. The arbitrator(s) also must follow the terms of this user agreement as a court would.

The arbitration will be conducted by JAMS under its Comprehensive Rules and Procedures, including the Optional Expedited Arbitration Procedures. Provided that for claims with the Scope of Rules, the arbitration will be conducted pursuant to the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures. JAMS rules and procedures are available at https://www.jamsadr.com/adr-rules-procedures/. Prior to initiating an arbitration, a party who intends to seek arbitration must first send the other party, by certified mail, a written notice describing the dispute. You should send this notice to Pushpay at: Pushpay, Attn: Legal Department, Re: Notice of Dispute, 18300 Redmond Way, #300, Redmond, WA 98052. Pushpay will send any notice to you to the address we have on file associated with your Pushpay account; it is your responsibility to keep your address up to date. All information called for in the notice must be provided including a description of the nature and basis of the claims the party is asserting and the relief sought.

If you and Pushpay are unable to resolve the claims described in the notice within 30 days after the notice is sent, you or Pushpay may initiate arbitration proceedings. A form for initiating arbitration proceedings using expedited procedures is available on the JAMS website at www.adr.org.

For Individuals only, the arbitration shall be held in the county in which you reside, or nearest to you, as the case may be, or at another mutually agreed location. If the value of the relief sought is $10,000 or less, you may elect to have the arbitration conducted by telephone or based solely on written submissions, which election shall be binding on you and Pushpay subject to the discretion of the arbitrator(s) to require an in-person hearing, if the circumstances warrant. Any settlement offer made by you or Pushpay shall not be disclosed to the arbitrator(s).

For Organizations and Developers, the arbitration shall be held in King County, Washington. If the value of the relief sought is $10,000 or less, you or Pushpay may elect to have the arbitration conducted by telephone or based solely on written submissions, which election shall be binding on you and Pushpay subject to the discretion of the arbitrator(s) to require an in-person hearing, if the circumstances warrant. Any settlement offer made by you or Pushpay shall not be disclosed to the arbitrator(s).

The arbitrator(s) will decide the substance of all claims in accordance with applicable law, including recognized principles of equity, and will honor all claims of privilege recognized by law. The arbitrator(s) shall not be bound by rulings in prior arbitrations involving different Pushpay users (whether Individuals, Organizations or Developers), but is/are bound by rulings in prior arbitrations involving the same Pushpay user to the extent required by applicable law. The award of the arbitrator(s) shall be final and binding, and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. Any arbitration shall be confidential, and neither you nor we may disclose the existence, contents or results of any arbitration, except as may be required by law or for purposes of enforcement of the arbitration award.

Costs of Arbitration

Payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees will be governed by the JAMS rules, unless otherwise stated in this Agreement to Arbitrate. For Individuals only, (a) if the value of the aggregate relief sought is $10,000 or less, at your request, Pushpay will pay all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees associated with the arbitration, or (b) if the value of the aggregate relief sought exceeds $10,000, and you are able to demonstrate that the costs of accessing arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of accessing a court for purposes of pursuing litigation on an individual basis, Pushpay will pay as much of the filing, administration, and arbitrator fees as the arbitrator(s) deem necessary to prevent the cost of accessing the arbitration from being prohibitive. Any request for payment of fees by Pushpay should be submitted by mail to JAMS along with your Demand for Arbitration. In the event the arbitrator(s) determine the claim(s) you (whether an Individual, Organization or Developer) assert in the arbitration to be frivolous, you agree to reimburse Pushpay for all fees associated with the arbitration paid by Pushpay on your behalf that you otherwise would be obligated to pay under the JAMS rules. You will be responsible for all fees you are obligated to pay under the JAMS rules.

Severability

With the exception of any of the provisions in the Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief section above, if a court decides that any part of this Agreement to Arbitrate is invalid or unenforceable, the other parts of this Agreement to Arbitrate shall still apply. If a court decides that any of the provisions in the Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief section above is invalid or unenforceable, then the entirety of this Agreement to Arbitrate shall be null and void, but the remainder of this user agreement will continue to apply.

Opt-Out Procedure for Individuals; Exclusive Forum for Claims by Individual Who Opts-Out

For Individuals only, you can choose to reject this Agreement to Arbitrate by emailing us a written opt-out notice. The opt-out notice must be received by Pushpay via email to ArbitrationOptOut@pushpay.com no later than 30 days after the date you accept this user agreement for the first time. For your convenience, we are providing an Opt-Out Notice Form you must complete and email us to opt-out of this Agreement to Arbitrate. You must complete this form by providing all the information it calls for, including your name, address, phone number, and the email address(es) used to log in to the Pushpay account(s) to which the opt-out applies. You must sign the opt-out notice for it to be effective. This procedure is the only way you can opt-out of the agreement to arbitrate. If you opt-out of this Agreement to Arbitrate, all other parts of the user agreement will continue to apply. Opting-out of this Agreement to Arbitrate has no effect on any previous, other, or future arbitration agreements that you may have with us.

If you opt-out of arbitration, any and all disputes or claims that have arisen or may arise between you and Pushpay including federal and state statutory claims, common law claims, and those based in contract, tort, fraud, misrepresentation or any other legal theory, shall be resolved exclusively by the courts located in King County, Washington, and you and Pushpay agree to exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the courts located in King County, Washington, and you and Pushpay forever waive any right to assert forum non conveniens.

Future Amendments to this Agreement to Arbitrate

Notwithstanding any provision in the user agreement to the contrary, you and we agree that if we make any amendment to this Agreement to Arbitrate (other than an amendment to any notice address or website link provided herein) in the future, that amendment shall not apply to any claim that was filed in a legal proceeding against Pushpay prior to the effective date of the amendment. The amendment shall apply to all other disputes or claims governed by this Agreement to Arbitrate that have arisen or may arise between you and Pushpay. We will notify you of amendments to this Agreement to Arbitrate by posting the amended terms on our Website at least 30 days before the effective date of the amendments and by providing notice through email. If you do not agree to these amended terms, you may close your Pushpay account within the 30-day period and you will not be bound by the amended terms.

We do not consider Personal Data, information to include information that has been made anonymous so that it does not identify a specific user (“De-Identified Information”). If you cannot be identified (for example, when Personal Data has been aggregated and anonymized), then it’s not Personal Data. You agree to provide true, accurate and current information, and where such information is not personal to you, you agree that you have the necessary authority or permission from the owner of such Personal Data, including as required by applicable law, to upload or input that information into the Services or to otherwise share that information with Pushpay.

MISCELLANEOUS

Consumer Fraud Warning

We’re always looking for ways to help keep you even more secure. Here’s some tips to help you avoid fraud:

Know who you’re dealing with. Fraudsters often impersonate someone you know and trust.
Guard your personal information. Fraudsters may pretend to be from companies that you do business with and may call or email you claiming to need to verify your personal information.
Stay safe online. Don’t send sensitive information such as credit card numbers through email because it’s not secure.
Be cautious of unsolicited emails. Many fraudsters impersonate companies or charities. Don’t respond to senders that you don’t know.
Resist pressure. Legitimate businesses and charities will not pressure to make a decision nor threaten you with consequences for not responding immediately.
Don’t believe promises of easy money. If it’s too good to be true, it probably is.
Check your credit reports regularly. If you find accounts that don’t belong to you or other incorrect information, follow the credit bureau’s instructions for disputing those items. Everyone can request free copies of their credit reports once a year.

Always use common sense when sending money. Only send money for yourself and not for others. Register to get email updates on current scams from the FTC. If you spot a scam, report it to the FTC.

Third Party Services, Integrations and Websites

Our Services allow for integrations with a variety of other software applications that Pushpay does not own or control (“Third Party Apps”). These integrations may be used for sharing of your information (including Personal Data) or that of others with a Third Party App at your election or that of an Organization acting on behalf of your or other Individuals with whom the Organization has a relationship. The applicable provider of a Third Party App, and not Pushpay, is the party providing access to that Third Party App. Pushpay does not in any way guarantee the service of any Third Party App, and you agree that you will not hold Pushpay responsible or liable for any purchases made through, or use of, a Third Party App (directly or indirectly through an Organization or otherwise) under any circumstances. Use of a Third Party App may be subject to additional terms as between you (or the applicable Organization as the case may be) and the provider of the relevant Third Party App. Please carefully review the applicable Third Party App’s privacy policy and other terms before deciding whether to share your information with them.

If you are an Organization, (a) you agree that you are prohibited from sharing an individual’s information with Third Party Apps without informed notice and consent from affected individuals and without having complied with all applicable laws; and (b) if you share information with a Third Party App, you represent, warrant and agree that you have provided notice and obtained informed consent from all affected individuals and have complied with all applicable laws.

For Developers only, If you are using Pushpay software such as an API, SDK, app key, app token, developer webpage or documentation (“Developer Tools”), or other software application, which may include software provided by or integrated with software, systems or services of our service providers, that you have downloaded or otherwise accessed through a web or mobile platform, then you must comply with the implementation, access and use requirements contained in all documentation accompanying the Services and the Pushpay Developer Platform Terms. If you do not comply with implementation, access and use requirements you will be liable for all resulting damages suffered by you, Pushpay and third parties. Pushpay may update or discontinue any software upon notice to you.

You agree not to modify, alter, tamper with, repair, copy, reproduce, adapt, distribute, display, publish, reverse engineer, translate, disassemble, decompile or otherwise attempt to create any source code that is derived from the software or any third party materials or technology, or otherwise create any derivative works from any of the software or third party materials or technology. You acknowledge that all rights, title and interest to Pushpay’s software are owned by Pushpay and any third party materials integrated therein are owned by Pushpay’s third party service providers. Any other third party software application you use on our Website is subject to the license you agreed to with the third party that provides you with this software. You acknowledge that Pushpay does not own, control nor have any responsibility or liability for any such third party software application you elect to use on any of our Website, software and/or in connection with the Pushpay services.

This user agreement, the Pushpay Developer Agreement, as well as any additional registration terms specified by Pushpay apply to your use of Developer Tools.

If you do not comply with any aspect of the terms of this User Agreement, Pushpay may exercise all rights and remedies available to Pushpay without notice to you, including canceling or suspend your use of the Services, and/or terminate all or part of the terms of this User Agreement (including the license granted within it) as they apply to you and/or seeking damages and/or injunctive relief. Pushpay shall not be liable for any loss or damage suffered by you as a result of Pushpay exercising its rights.

Governing Law

You agree that, except to the extent inconsistent with or preempted by federal law and except as otherwise stated in this user agreement, the laws of the State of Washington, without regard to principles of conflict of laws, will govern this user agreement and any claim or dispute that has arisen or may arise between you and Pushpay.

Identity Authentication

You authorize Pushpay, directly or through third parties, to make any inquiries we consider necessary to validate your identity, including obtaining a credit report from a credit reporting agency or verifying your information against third party databases or through other sources. We may also ask you for further information, require you to provide your date of birth, a taxpayer identification number and other information that will allow us to reasonably identify you, or require you to take steps to confirm ownership of your email address or financial instruments. We may also ask to see your driver’s license or other identifying documents at any time. If you use certain of our Services, federal law may require that Pushpay and/or its Processing Partners verify some of your information. Pushpay reserves the right to close, suspend, or limit access to your Pushpay account and/or our Services in the event we are unable to obtain or verify this information.

Not an Agent, Payment Processor, Money Transmitter, Financial Institution, Legal, Financial, Accounting, or Tax Advisor

Our relationship with you under this user agreement is as a provider of Services and as an independent contractor for all purposes and not as an agent or trustee. Pushpay is not a money transmitter or financial institution. Pushpay Processing provides Processing Services as an Independent Sales Organization through our Processing Partners.

Pushpay is not your financial, tax, accounting or legal advisor and use of the Services does not constitute the receipt of financial, tax, legal or accounting advice. If you have any accounting questions, please contact a licensed professional. We provide tools for Organizations to generate annual giving statements but we do not warrant their accuracy or completeness.

It is your sole responsibility to determine that the Services meet the needs of your business and are suitable for the purposes for which they are used.

You remain solely responsible for complying with all applicable accounting, tax and other laws. It is your responsibility to check that storage of and access to your data via our Services will comply with laws applicable to you (including any laws requiring you to retain records).

Your use of information

If you receive information about another Pushpay user in connection with your use of the Services, you must keep that information confidential and only use it in connection with our Services. You may not disclose or distribute any information about Pushpay users to a third party or use the information for marketing purposes unless you receive that user’s express consent to do so. You may not send unsolicited emails to a Pushpay user or use the Pushpay services to collect payments or for sending, or assist in sending, unsolicited emails to third parties.

Severability

If a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction holds any of the provisions of these terms to be void or unenforceable, such provisions shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary and replaced with a valid provision that best embodies the intent of these terms, so that these terms shall remain in full force and effect.

No Waiver

Pushpay’s failure to insist on or enforce strict performance of this user agreement shall not be construed as Pushpay’s waiver of any provision or any right it has to enforce this user agreement, nor shall any course of conduct between Pushpay and you or any other party be deemed to modify any provision of this agreement.

No Third Party Beneficiaries.

This agreement shall not be interpreted or construed to confer any rights or remedies on any third parties.

Assignment

You may not transfer or assign any rights or obligations you have under this user agreement without Pushpay’s prior written consent. Pushpay may transfer or assign this user agreement or any right or obligation under this user agreement at any time.

Entire Agreement

This user agreement, together with any other agreements on the Legal Center page that apply to you, including for Organizations the Additional Agreements for Organizations and the Covered Agreements (as defined in the Additional Agreements for Organizations), and the terms of any other notices or instructions given to you hereunder and thereunder, supersede and extinguish all prior agreements, representations (whether oral or written), and understandings and constitute the entire agreement between you and us relating to the Services and the other matters dealt with in this user agreement and other applicable legal agreements in the Legal Center.
