1. Your CardPledge.com Account and Payment Forms. The Website provides a free service for creating and hosting payment forms for non-profit organizations. If you create an account on the Website, you are responsible for maintaining the security of your account, and you are fully responsible for all activities that occur under the account and any other actions taken in connection with the payment forms that you create. You must not describe or assign keywords to your payment forms in a misleading or unlawful manner, including in a manner intended to trade on the name or reputation of others, and CardPledge may change or remove any content that it considers inappropriate or unlawful, or otherwise likely to cause CardPledge liability. You must immediately notify CardPledge of any unauthorized uses of your account or any other breaches of security. CardPledge will not be liable for any acts or omissions by You, including any damages of any kind incurred as a result of such acts or omissions.


2. Third-Party Agreements. The functionality of the CardPledge system is dependent upon the services of third-party Merchant Account providers that authorize and settle credit card transactions on behalf of merchants. Upon registering for a CardPledge.com account, you will be given instructions to apply for a merchant account with a supported third-party Merchant Account provider. The agreement between You and the Merchant Account provider is separate and distinct from this agreement and Cardpledge makes no representations or warranties as to such third-party Merchant Account providers. CardPledge will not be liable for any damages that arise from disputes between You and the Merchant Account provider.
