    2. Use of our Services and registration is open to any user over the age of 16 years old.
    3. These terms will apply to all users, registered users and subscribers (“you” or “users”).
    4. Different levels of registration or subscription may apply, whichever level of registration or subscription you choose you will be bound by these Terms.
    5. Please note that these Terms may be amended from time to time. Notification of any changes will be made by posting new terms onto the Services. In continuing to use the Services you confirm that you accept the then current Terms in full at the time you use the Services.
  2. Registration, Subscription and Use of the Services

    1. Use of certain Services may require registration. We may allow access to some Services without registration but we reserve the right to withdraw access without registration at any time.
    2. We are not obliged to permit anyone to register to use the Services and we reserve the right to refuse registration to anyone for any reason.
    3. We reserve the right to add or remove services and functionality from any registration type or to add or remove registration types.
    4. We may introduce or offer subscription services, if so then we reserve the right to change the subscription services or subscription periods. When we change our subscription types or subscription periods you will be entitled to keep your existing subscription until the end of your then-current subscription period and at the end of that period you will be required to subscribe on the new basis.
    5. If you have subscribed for a subscription service, then your subscription will last for the agreed subscription period. Unless you expressly request otherwise we will send you an email towards the end of your subscription inviting you to re-subscribe and unless you opt not to re-subscribe we will be entitled to charge your debit or credit card with the subscription fees for the next subscription period.
    6. Donation Services

    7. We will process your donation via your chosen payment method. We use a third party payment processor in order to facilitate payments to your chosen recipient. If you are using the Services to schedule donations to be made on a certain night or day in the future, then we will arrange for the payment or multiple payments to be processed on the night or day of your scheduled donation. Your donation will be received by The MyTenNights Fund, a restricted fund operating under our Donor Advised Partner (DAF) partner, which is a registered charity in your local region. All tax receipts are issued from The MyTenNights Fund, operating at our DAF partner in your country.
    8. If you have set up an automated donation on any of our services, you can manage and cancel your scheduled donations by logging into your ‘My Profile’ dashboard.
    9. You may decide to pay an optional tip to us when making your donation. If you do so we will collect and retain such amount. In providing the Services we may also receive commissions and other fees from the charities or other organisations who we partner with.

    10. If you are asked to confirm if you want us to submit a claim for Gift Aid on behalf of your chosen recipient charity or other organisation, you are solely responsible for confirming that you and/or your donation meet the criteria to submit such a claim for Gift Aid and you agree that you will complete any required declarations truthfully and fully.
    11. We do not covenant, represent or warrant that any money you donate will be used for any particular appeal, cause or purpose. We are not responsible or liable for the organisation who receives your donations and while we undertake due diligence in relation to the charities and organisations we list we do not guarantee or warrant that their charitable purposes and conduct will be suitable for you and we recommend that you consider the relevant charities and organisations carefully before setting up a donation.
    12. The charity or organisation to which you donate is responsible and in control of how your donation is used and they have sole discretion as to how they use the funds donated. Any concerns or issues you may have with how such donations may have been used or not used by the organisation you have donated to must only be raised directly with the recipient charity. Where we consider a charity it appropriate, we may release your donation to your charity in tranches, so as to ensure each tranche is used as intended, and release the funding as agreed milestones are achieved. Where we deem a charity has been fraudulent, or has been unable to produce feedback on how your donations have been used, you agree that we may withhold any further tranches of your donation from that charity, and we may direct it to a charity that is in the same area of interest, yet has a better track record of transparency and impact. If your funds are redirected, we will attempt to inform you via email.
    13. Once you have donated and the payment has been processed any refund will be at the discretion of the recipient charity or other organisation but you should assume that refunds will not be granted.
