Political Committee Terms of Use

Political Committee Terms of Use

Applicable to Political Committees and Page Creators

Effective Date: June 18, 2019
Last Updated: May 27, 2023

These Terms of Use (the “Terms”), govern access to and use of the platform upon which these Terms reside (the “Platform”). The Terms are entered into by and between WinRed Technical Services, LLC (“TS”; “we”; “us” or “our”) and each political committee and campaign on whose behalf financial contributions are being raised on the Platform (“Political Committees”), as well as all individuals and entities creating pages (“Page Creators”) to seek financial contributions on behalf of Political Committees or using Additional Services (defined below). The terms applicable to a Page Creator apply generally to individuals and entities who create pages, but also apply to a Political Committee raising financial contributions or using Additional Services on behalf of itself. If you are acting as a service provider, agent, or other entity performing services for a Political Committee (a “Vendor”), the terms hereof applicable to Political Committees, as well as the Vendor Terms (the “Vendor Terms”) apply to you, and you will be considered a “Political Committee” for purposes of these terms.

TS provides digital online fundraising processing services to Federally-registered center-right Political Committees, allowing such Political Committees to raise financial contributions (“Contributions”), and the Terms contained herein describe such services.

If you are a Political Committee, you accept responsibility for any Contributions made to you by visitors to the Platform (“Platform Users”).

Certain other services may from time to time be offered through the Platform by TS or its affiliates or services providers, including but not limited to fundraising processing services for state and local candidates; fundraising processing services for non-profit organizations; or conducting surveys, provision of products, contests, and sweepstakes, or other promotions and other functions (“Additional Services”). The Additional Services may include services offered by affiliates of TS in support of the “Patriot Economy.” Except for the Terms that by their nature apply exclusively to federally-registered campaigns and committees, these Terms also apply to any of such Additional Services. To the extent that TS or its affiliates or contracting parties may in the future create additional or separate terms (“Additional Terms”) governing any such other services, the Additional Terms shall govern and supersede these Terms with respect to the Additional Services.

This Platform is intended for and applicable only for residents of the United States, age eighteen (18) or older. If you are from another jurisdiction or under eighteen (18) years of age, you may not use this Platform. BY CLICKING A BOX INDICATING YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF THESE TERMS, YOU (AS THE PERSON CLICKING SUCH BOX) AGREE TO THESE TERMS. YOU REPRESENT THAT YOU HAVE THE AUTHORITY TO BIND ANY ENTITY ON WHOSE BEHALF YOU ARE ACCEPTING THESE TERMS AND ITS AFFILIATES TO THESE TERMS, IN WHICH CASE THE TERMS “YOU” OR “YOUR” SHALL REFER TO SUCH ENTITY AND ITS AFFILIATES. IF YOU DO NOT HAVE SUCH AUTHORITY, OR IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH THESE TERMS, YOU MUST NOT ACCEPT THESE TERMS AND MAY NOT USE THE PLATFORM OR SERVICES.

Because federal, state and local laws; the business environment; and the services offerings and infrastructure of the Platform and its contracting parties periodically change, we may update this Platform and these Terms and may also post Additional Terms that apply to Additional Services at any time, as set forth herein. In the case of any amendment to these Terms that is material, or where required by law, we will provide advance notice of such amendment. The notice will be provided via electronic mail, the Platform, or other commercially reasonable means. Your use of this Platform after we provide notice of such changes to these Terms, and your use of Additional Services, constitutes your acknowledgement and acceptance of all such changes and Additional Terms, and it shall also constitute adequate consideration to support such changes and Additional Terms.

Unless otherwise permitted by law, or unless you have expressly agreed to such amendment, you agree that any amendment will only apply after the effective date of such amendment.

You may opt out of any proposed amendment by cancelling your account and ceasing your access to the Platform.

For avoidance of doubt, nothing in these Terms is intended to, or shall be interpreted to, grant any rights in our database, products, or any intellectual property rights therein to you, and we shall have and retain all such intellectual property rights. You agree that you do not have any rights in this Platform.

You acknowledge and agree that each of you, TS, and TS’s contracting parties are subject to a variety of laws and internal and external policies that may impact your ability to use the Platform. TS may suspend, restrict, or terminate any account or user from access to or use of the Platform, or restrict any or all of the functionality of the Platform, for any reason.
