Platform Disclaimers

Important statements about our role, competition outcomes, fundraising and results.

Version 2026-08-12 · Last updated August 12, 2026

This document is a structured draft prepared for review by qualified legal counsel. It has not been reviewed or approved by an attorney and does not constitute legal advice.

Not the organizer

VoteForCause provides software. Competitions are created, run and controlled by independent organizers. We are not a co-organizer, sponsor, promoter, charity, fiscal sponsor or trustee.

No endorsement or verification of claims

Listing a competition is not an endorsement. We do not verify fundraising claims, beneficiary relationships, prize availability or contestant eligibility.

Paid votes are not donations to us

Paid votes are contributions to a third-party competition and are not tax-deductible charitable donations unless the organizer establishes and evidences that status.

Results

Published results reflect valid votes recorded at the time of close. Results may be adjusted where votes are invalidated or payments reversed.

No professional advice

Nothing on the Platform is legal, tax, financial or regulatory advice. Organizers should obtain their own advice before running a competition, particularly where prizes, fundraising or paid entry are involved.

This document is provided for transparency and for review by qualified legal counsel before production use. Bracketed placeholders indicate information that must be completed.
