By using the Services, you understand and agree that Extensia is not responsible for the use of your donations or the amount of funds raised for your Event or Campaign.
DONORS ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR ASSESSING THE VALUE AND APPROPRIATENESS OF CONTRIBUTING TO ANY CAMPAIGN. WE ENCOURAGE DONORS TO USE THEIR DISCRETION WHEN SUPPORTING CAMPAIGNS.
Though we have no obligation to verify that the accuracy of Events or Campaigns and the use of donations, we take possible fraudulent activity and the misuse of funds raised very seriously.

You agree that you are solely responsible for your interactions with any other user in connection with the Services and Extensia will have no liability or responsibility with respect thereto. Extensia reserves the right, but has no obligation, to become involved in any way with disputes between you and any other user of the Services and any third party relating to the use of the Services.
Extensia works with various payment providers to ensure we can send you funds in timely matter. We try as best as we can to screen initial acceptance with our payment providers but in some rare cases/times campaigns may not meet their risk appetite even after approval, we may have to refund donations in such cases. Although there are no platform fees, industry-standard payment processing fees apply for all refunds and these processing fees. Extensia reserves the right to deduct these fees and provide remaining refund as appropriate. In cases where Donors are not charged the refund processing fees, it is the responsibility of the Subscriber to reimburse Extensia for such fees.
Funds will be sent to Subscribers within 30 days after the successful completion of a Campaign barring any unforeseen circumstances such as
(1) a possible violation of the Terms or any other law, rule, or regulation, (2) inaccurate information associated with the Event or Campaign or any donations which can delay the transfer of funds, or (3) delay based on Holds as set forth in the Account Suspensions section below.
Without limiting any other rights we have, we may refund all donations to an Event or Campaign if we have not received sufficient Campaign account information or accurate information to transfer funds within 30 days after the Campaign closes. Questions about refunds may be directed to us at [email protected].
Subscribers may be given an opportunity to offer goods, promotions, or services (“Perks and Incentives”) to Donors of their Events or Campaigns. Subscribers are solely responsible for delivering Perks and Incentives promised to Donors. Failure to provide Perks and Incentives to Donors as promised may result in a various penalties including but not limited to; reimbursement of Donors at the Event or Campaign’s expense, and suspension of accounts and current and future Campaigns by the Subscriber.
Each Subscriber is responsible for determining what, if any, taxes apply to the donations received through the Services. Subscribers are responsible for assessing, collecting, reporting, or remitting the correct tax, if any, to the appropriate tax authority.
Extensia makes no representation as to whether all or any portion of your donations, including, if any, transaction fees, are tax deductible or eligible for tax credits. Extensia will have no liability for any claim by any federal, state, provincial, territorial, local or any other tax authority with respect to the characterization on any applicable tax return of any donation by any Donor. You should consult your tax advisor as to the amount of your donation that is tax-deductible or eligible for tax recognition, having regard to (among other things) the tax status of the recipient of any donation in any relevant jurisdiction, and particularly if you are awarded Perks and Incentives in connection with your donation.
From time to time, Extensia may (1) place a hold on a Subscriber account, suspending the ability of a Subscriber to obtain donations made to the Event or Campaign and/or (2) place a hold of transfer of funds already raised (either or collectively a “Hold”). We may place a Hold (and refund all donations made to that particular Event or Campaign to the Member(s) who made such donations) if: (i) we have reason to believe (in our sole discretion) that information provided by a Subscriber is false, misleading, or fraudulent, or that funds are being used in a prohibited manner, (ii) the funds available should be provided directly to a person other than the Subscriber (such as a legal beneficiary or person entitled by law to act on behalf of a Subscriber), (iii) we have reason to believe that an Event, a Campaign or a Subscriber has violated these Terms, or
(iv) required in order to comply with a court order, subpoena, writ, injunction, or as otherwise required under applicable laws and regulations.
If you have questions about a Hold we may have placed on your Campaign account, or need information about how to resolve the Hold, please contact us at [email protected].
You acknowledge, consent, and agree that Extensia may access, preserve, and disclose your information and/or any User Content you submit or make available for inclusion on the Services, if required to do so by law or in a good faith belief that such access, preservation, or disclosure is permitted by Extensia’s Privacy Policy or reasonably necessary or appropriate for any of the following reasons: (1) to comply with legal process; (2) to enforce these Terms, our Privacy Policy, or other contracts with you, including investigation of potential violations thereof; (3) to respond to claims that any content violates the rights of third parties; (4) to respond to your requests for customer service; and/or (5) to protect the rights, property, or personal safety of Extensia, its agents and affiliates, its users, and the public.

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT.
You and Extensia agree that these Terms affect interstate commerce and that the Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of these arbitration provisions. This Section 23 is intended to be interpreted broadly and governs any and all disputes between us including but not limited to claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of the relationship between us, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation or any other legal theory; claims that arose before these Terms or any prior agreement (including, but not limited to, claims related to Campaigns and donations); and claims that may arise after the termination of these Terms. The only disputes excluded from this broad prohibition are the litigation of certain intellectual property and small court claims, as provided below.
Most disputes can be resolved without resort to arbitration. If you have any dispute with us, you agree that before taking any formal action, you will contact us at [email protected] , and provide a brief, written description of the dispute and your contact information (including
your Campaign name, if your dispute relates to an Event or Campaign). Except for intellectual property and small claims court claims, the parties agree to use their best efforts to settle any dispute, claim, question, or disagreement directly through consultation with Extensia, and good faith negotiations shall be a condition to either party initiating a lawsuit or arbitration.
If the parties do not reach an agreed-upon solution within a period of sixty (60) days from the time informal dispute resolution is initiated under the Initial Dispute Resolution provision above, then either party may initiate binding arbitration as the sole means to resolve claims, (except as provided in section 23(g) below) subject to the terms set forth below. Specifically, all claims arising out of or relating to these Terms (including the Terms’ formation, performance, and breach), the parties’ relationship with each other, and/or your use of Extensia shall be finally settled by binding arbitration administered by JAMS in accordance with the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Procedure Rules for claims that do not exceed $250,000 and the JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures for claims exceeding $250,000 in effect at the time the arbitration is initiated, excluding any rules or procedures governing or permitting class actions.
The arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve all disputes arising out of or relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of these Terms including but not limited to any claim that all or any part of these Terms is void or voidable, whether a claim is subject to arbitration, or the question of waiver by litigation conduct. The arbitrator shall be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in a court under law or in equity. The arbitrator’s award shall be written and shall be binding on the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.
To start an arbitration, you must do the following: (a) Write a Demand for Arbitration that includes a description of the claim and the amount of damages you seek to recover (you may find a copy of a Demand for Arbitration at www.jamsadr.com); (b) Send three copies of the Demand for Arbitration, plus the appropriate filing fee, to JAMS, 1201 W Peachtree, NW, Suite 2650, Atlanta, GA 30309; and (c) Send one copy of the Demand for Arbitration to us at: Extensia, Inc., 2300 Lakeview Parkway. #700, Alpharetta, GA 30009.
To the extent the filing fee for the arbitration exceeds the cost of filing a lawsuit, Extensia will pay the additional cost. If the arbitrator finds the arbitration to be non-frivolous, Extensia will pay the fees invoiced by JAMS, including filing fees and arbitrator and hearing expenses. You are responsible for your own attorneys’ fees unless the arbitration rules and/or applicable law provide otherwise.
The parties understand that, absent this mandatory arbitration provision, they would have the right to sue in court and have a jury trial. They further understand that, in some instances, the costs of arbitration could exceed the costs of litigation and the right to discovery may be more limited in arbitration than in court. If you are a resident of the United States, arbitration may take place in the county where you reside at the time of filing, unless you and we both agree to another location or telephonic arbitration. For individuals residing outside the United States, arbitration shall be initiated in Fulton County, Georgia, United States. You and Extensia further agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of any federal or state court in Fulton County, Georgia, in order to compel arbitration, stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate, or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.
The parties further agree that the arbitration shall be conducted in the party’s respective individual capacities only and not as a class action or other representative action, and the parties expressly waive their right to file a class action or seek relief on a class basis. YOU AND EXTENSIA AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS
MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. If any court or arbitrator determines that the class action waiver set forth in this paragraph is void or unenforceable for any reason or that an arbitration can proceed on a class basis, then the arbitration provisions set forth above shall be deemed null and void in their entirety and the parties shall be deemed to have not agreed to arbitrate disputes.
Notwithstanding the parties’ decision to resolve all disputes through arbitration, either party may bring enforcement actions, validity determinations or claims arising from or relating to theft, piracy or unauthorized use of intellectual property in state or federal court with jurisdiction or in the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office to protect its intellectual property rights (“intellectual property rights” means patents, copyrights, moral rights, trademarks, and trade secrets, but not privacy or publicity rights). Either party may also seek relief in a small claims court for disputes or claims within the scope of that court’s jurisdiction.
You have the right to opt out and not be bound by the arbitration and class action waiver provisions set forth above by sending written notice of your decision to opt out to at [email protected] with the subject line, “ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER OPT-OUT.” The notice must be sent within thirty (30) days of (a) the Effective Date of these Terms; or (b) your first date that you used the Services that contained any versions of the Terms that included this version of the mandatory arbitration and class action waiver, whichever is later. Otherwise you shall be bound to arbitrate disputes in accordance with the terms of these paragraphs. If you opt out of these arbitration provisions, Extensia also will not be bound by them.
Extensia will provide thirty (30) days’ notice of any changes to this section by posting on the Services. Amendments will become effective thirty (30) days after they are posted on the Services or sent to you by email. Changes to this section will otherwise apply prospectively only to claims arising after the thirtieth (30th) day. If a court or arbitrator decides that this subsection on “Changes to This Section” is not enforceable or valid, then this subsection shall be severed from the section entitled Arbitration and Class Action Waiver, and the court or arbitrator shall apply the first Arbitration and Class Action Waiver section in existence after you began using the Services.
This Arbitration and Class Action Waiver section shall survive any termination of your use of the Services.
These Terms shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Georgia notwithstanding its conflicts of law principles. Except for claims subject to mandatory arbitration, any dispute arising out of these terms and conditions or the use of this site shall be initiated and conducted in the state or federal courts of Fulton County, Georgia, and you and Extensia consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts.
By sending us any feedback, comments, questions, or suggestions concerning Extensia or our services, including the Services (collectively, “Feedback”) you represent and warrant (a) that you have the right to disclose the Feedback, (b) that the Feedback does not violate the rights of any other person or entity, and (c) that your Feedback does not contain the confidential or proprietary information of any third party or parties. By sending us any Feedback, you further (i) agree that we are under no obligation of confidentiality, express or implied, with respect to the Feedback, (ii) acknowledge that we may have something similar to the Feedback already under consideration or in development, (iii) grant us an irrevocable, non-exclusive, royalty-free, perpetual, worldwide license to use, modify, prepare derivative works, publish, distribute and sublicense the Feedback, and (iv) irrevocably waive, and cause to be waived, against Extensia and its users any claims and assertions of any moral rights contained in such Feedback. This Feedback section shall survive any termination of your account or the Services.
Under no circumstances shall Extensia be held liable for any delay or failure in performance resulting directly or indirectly from an event beyond its reasonable control.
No waiver of any provision of these Terms will be binding unless in writing, no waiver of any provisions of these Terms will be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such provision or any other provision, and the failure of Extensia to exercise or enforce any right or remedy in these Terms does not waive that right or remedy. If an arbitrator or a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of these Terms to be invalid, the parties agree that the court should endeavor to give effect, to the maximum extent permitted by law, to the parties’ intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of these Terms will remain in full force and effect.
You agree that there shall be no third-party beneficiaries to these Terms. No agency or employment between you and Extensia is created as a result of the Terms or your use of the Services.
Except for residents of New Jersey, you agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to the use of the Services and/or these Terms must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose or be forever barred.
These Terms (and all terms and conditions incorporated herein) constitute the entire agreement between you and Extensia and govern your use of the Services, and supersede any prior agreements between you and Extensia on the subject matter. These Terms, and any rights or licenses granted hereunder, may not be assigned or delegated by you. These Terms, and any rights or licenses granted hereunder, may be assigned or delegated by Extensia without restriction. These Terms bind and inure to the benefit of each party and the party’s successors and permitted assigns. These Terms may not be modified by an oral statement by a representative of Extensia. No agency, partnership, joint venture, or employee-employer relationship is intended or created by these Terms. You agree that any agreements made by and between you and us in electronic form are as legally binding as if made in physical written form. The section titles in these Terms are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect.
We may deliver notice to you by e-mail, posting a notice on the Services or any other method we choose and such notice will be effective on dispatch. If you give notice to us, it will be effective when received and you must use the following physical or email address: (1) Extensia, c/o Trustmarq, 2300 Lakeview Parkway, Suite 700, Alpharetta, GA 30009; or (2) [email protected].
