These Provider Terms outline the expectations for vendors, institutions, and service providers receiving funds in connection with causes on Givar.
Givar is a technology platform that connects donors to verified causes and facilitates direct payments to approved Providers. Givar does not operate as a financial custodian or escrow agent.
Causes may be structured in budget phases. As a Provider, you may receive funds incrementally into your designated account as donors contribute. Delivery of goods or services should align with confirmed funds received.
Funds are routed directly to the Provider's designated bank account via authorized payment gateways. No funds are handled by Cause Organisers.
If a cause does not reach its full funding goal, the Provider is expected to adjust the scope of goods or services provided and not proceed beyond the costs covered by the available funds received.
In the event that a cause is cancelled, cannot proceed as planned, or funds received exceed the final cost of goods or services provided, the Provider is legally obligated to return the unused balance to Givar's corporate account.
This allows Givar to trigger appropriate refunds to the original donors via our payment gateway. Failure to return unused funds may result in removal from the Givar platform and potential legal action.
Providers must reasonably cooperate with Givar's verification and transparency processes and, upon request, provide invoices, receipts, photographs, documentation, progress information, or other evidence necessary to verify the delivery of funded goods or services.
Givar may use appropriate information and materials provided for this purpose to verify impact, provide updates to donors, maintain the platform's transparency records, and communicate the progress or outcome of a cause through Givar's platform, social media channels, emails, and other communications.
Providers are responsible for ensuring that they have any permissions or consents reasonably required for photographs, videos, or other materials they provide to Givar for publication.
Documents containing confidential, sensitive, financial, medical, or personal information that are provided solely for verification or audit purposes will not be treated as materials authorised for public publication unless separately agreed or appropriately redacted.
Any misuse or misrepresentation of funds will result in permanent exclusion from the Givar ecosystem.

One change I particularly like here is “delivery of goods or services” rather than just “execution of services.” That makes Provider genuinely broad enough to cover a hospital providing treatment, a school providing education, or a vendor supplying an item.
