GreatGrants reserves the right to change subscription plans or adjust Fees in any manner and at any time, with such changes effective beginning the next thirty (30) day billing period.
You understand and acknowledge that payments made to GreatGrants for Fees are not tax-deductible as charitable donations. Taxes are not included in the stated Fees. You will bear all taxes, duties, and other governmental charges resulting from these Terms. You will pay any additional taxes as are necessary to ensure that the net amounts received by GreatGrants after all such taxes are paid are equal to the amounts that GreatGrants would have been entitled to in accordance with these Terms as if the taxes did not exist.
By providing a payment method to GreatGrants, you expressly authorize GreatGrants to charge all Fees and applicable taxes to the payment method specified when you subscribe or as otherwise provided to GreatGrants. If you pay with a credit card, GreatGrants may seek pre-authorization of your credit card account prior to your purchase to verify that the credit card is valid and has the necessary funds or credit available to cover the purchase. You agree to pay a charge for any Fees that we are unable to charge against your payment method for any reason or that are more than thirty (30) days past due at the rate of the lesser of (i) one and one-half percent (1.5%) per month or (ii) the greatest rate allowed by law. All Fees are quoted in U.S. Dollars.
GreatGrants uses a third-party payment processor (“Payment Processor”) to process Fees and transactions. By using the Services, you hereby agree to the terms of use and privacy policy of the then-current Payment Processor. GreatGrants is not liable for any issues arising from or related to your breach of a Payment Processor’s policies. GreatGrants may, from time to time, change Payment Processor, and shall provide you with written notice of such change.

GreatGrants is not liable for any data or security breach, or compromised personal information that is caused, directly or indirectly, by the Payment Processor.
11. Subscription Term
If you select a Service level offered on a subscription basis, your subscription begins the day you subscribe and automatically renews every thirty (30) days unless and until you cancel or change it before the end of the then-current thirty (30) day billing period (“Subscription Term”). You acknowledge that your and our obligations under the subscription begin anew with each renewal, and that GreatGrants owes you no obligations beyond each successive thirty (30) day contract period. Your subscription and your payment of Fees will continue unless and until you cancel your subscription or we terminate it as permitted by these Terms. You must cancel the subscription before it renews to avoid billing and payment of the next periodic Fees.
You may cancel your subscription at any time through your Account or by contacting GreatGrants. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period. No refunds or credits are issued for paid but unused Fees. GreatGrants may, in our sole discretion, cancel your subscription at any time by giving you notice via the Services or otherwise in writing (email to suffice). Upon cancellation of your subscription, your access to Platform will be revoked and the license granted to you hereunder is automatically revoked.

GreatGrants reserves the right to decide how contributions are allocated within the organization.
If you pledge a recurring contribution, you will be charged the monthly contribution amount automatically each month on your contribution renewal date and by consenting to the automatic renewal, you agree that on your contribution renewal date, GreatGrants will charge the monthly contribution to your payment method on file, without further authorization from you until cancelled.

You can make changes to your recurring contribution at any time by contacting privacy@greatgrants.ai.

You are strictly responsible for your own recordkeeping, tax filings, and deductions. GreatGrants does not guarantee that any such receipt will be delivered to you without interruption or that such receipt will contain all details required for your purposes.

Neither party will be liable for, or be considered to be in breach of or default under these Terms on account of, any delay or failure to perform as required by these Terms as a result of any cause or condition beyond its reasonable control, so long as that party uses all commercially reasonable efforts to avoid or remove the causes of non-performance.
