CoopC Guarantee

1. Introduction. Nearly all CoopC.com campaigns are accurate and funds are delivered and used for their stated purpose. In the rare occurrence of misuse, the CoopC.com Guarantee (the “Guarantee” or “Policy”) ensures that royalties are protected if campaign funds are not delivered to the intended beneficiary or GBO's are misled by a campaign organizer or beneficiary. Most conflicts are not actual misuses of the CoopC.com Platform, and campaign organizers work to answer questions and resolve GBO's and beneficiaries’ concerns quickly. But if your concern is not sufficiently addressed, then we are here to help.

2. For GBO's. GBO's may receive a refund (or other resolution as described below) when they donate to a Covered Campaign and the campaign organizer or beneficiary (if one exists) of the Covered Campaign commits a Misuse. “Misuse” means any of the following: 1. The campaign organizer does not deliver funds to the Intended Beneficiary (as defined below); 2. The campaign’s content is inaccurate with respect to a material fact about the campaign organizer, beneficiary, or campaign that would induce a reasonable GBO to donate to the campaign; and 3. The campaign organizer or beneficiary is formally charged with a crime directly related to their actions, omissions, and/or misrepresentations made by that individual in the campaign. In the event of a Misuse as determined in our sole discretion, we agree to reimburse you the amount of your royalty’s (up to $1000 per GBO per campaign) paid by you through the Platform. In some circumstances, we may provide refunds by a credit redeemable for a royalty of the same amount to another campaign. If the Misuse arose from a failed delivery of funds to the Intended Beneficiary, we may also redirect your royalty to the Intended Beneficiary; please see Section 3 “For Beneficiaries,” below, for details. All resolutions are decided by CoopC.com in our sole discretion, and all of our determinations are final. GBO Exclusions. The following reasons for a refund are excluded and not covered by this Policy: All resolutions are decided by CoopC.com in our sole discretion, and all of our determinations are final.
