Payments to Causes<p>Gladly's mission is the payment of advertising revenue generated to nonprofit charity organizations ("Cause" or "Causes") that users care about.
The following terms govern Gladly's payments to Causes:</p>
<p>Any "Raised", "Given", and "Earned" dollar amounts are our team's good-faith projections of how much advertising revenue users have earned based on their usage of the Gladly website.
Please note that in the case that Gladly does not receive payment from its partners for any reason, including but not limited to advertisement click-fraud, Gladly is not responsible for making any payments to Causes and reserves the right to modify the displayed dollar amounts accordingly.</p>
<p>Gladly's payments to Causes are made within 120 days of the end of every fiscal quarter.
Any displayed dollar amount "Raised", "Given", or "Earned" simply indicates that Gladly has designated funds for payment to a particular cause, and in no way reflects when the cause actually receives these funds.</p>
<p>All dollar amounts listed on the Website represent United States Dollars.</p>
<p>Although Gladly makes payments of user-generated funds to the causes users designate, all user-generated funds are considered the wholly-owned revenue of Gladly and all payments to Causes are considered payments directly from Gladly to the designated Causes.
Users have no legal claim to redeem these funds from Gladly, nor any legal claim to exert control over these funds in any way.
Users must be aware that they may not legally attempt to deduct from their taxes any amounts "raised" on Gladly and that to do so may be illegal in the user's tax jurisdiction.</p>2.
Selection and Continuance of Causes<p>Causes that operate on the Website are selected based on whether they:</p>
<ul>
<li>are geographically broad in scope (for example, national or international in scope)</li>
<li>are 501(c)(3) organizations maintain accessible and transparent financial statements</li>
<li>are top-rated for efficiency by a third-party Cause evaluator (for example, rated 3 or 4 stars on CauseNavigator.org).
We may relax this criterion in some situations, such as when the Cause has not yet been evaluated by third-party evaluators.</li>
</ul>
<p>Gladly reserves all rights to choose the Causes that are to operate on the Website.</p>
<p>Gladly reserves the right to remove a Cause from its website or discontinue all payments to a Cause at any time and without reason.
In such a case, Gladly will evenly distribute that Cause's unpaid earnings to all other Causes on the website.</p>
<p>If at any time the administration of a Cause for which Gladly raises revenue requests that Gladly remove the Cause from the Website or discontinue all payments to said Cause, Gladly will comply within fourteen (14) days from the date of receiving a written request from a verifiable member of the Cause's administration.
In such a case, Gladly will evenly distribute that Cause's unpaid earnings to all other Causes on the website.</p>
<p>By listing a Cause on its website or raising revenue for a Cause, Gladly does not necessarily imply any formal relationship with that Cause.
Gladly is not operated by any members of administration from the Causes listed on the Website.</p>3.
