No Business Founder will raise funds for a Project in any manner that would involve the offer of a sale of a security as defined by the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any State securities laws.
You understand that making a contribution to a Project is charitable in nature and does not give you any rights in or to that Project or any profits ultimately derived from or related thereto, including without limitation any ownership, control, or distribution rights, or any rights commonly afforded to the owner of a security and that the Business Founder shall be free to solicit other funding for the Project, enter into contracts for the Project, allocate rights in or to the Project, and otherwise direct the Project at their sole discretion. You further understand that nothing in this Agreement or otherwise limits Company's right to enter into agreements or business relationships relating to Projects. Any contribution made by you is irrevocable and you shall have no right to a return of your contribution in whole or in part.
Certain contributions made on the Funddreamer may be tax deductible if given to a tax exempt organization as defined by section 501(c) of the Internal Revenue Service code. You understand that, if you make a contribution to a Project that is posted by a tax exempt entity as defined by section 501(c) of the IRS code, Company is in no way involved and is not responsible for facilitation of any tax deduction or receipt thereto. Any potential deduction must be dealt with between the tax exempt organization and the Funder directly, outside of Company.

Company reserves the right to cancel a Project listing and attempt, in good faith, to refund all associated members' payments at any time for any reason. Company reserves the right to remove a Project listing from public listings for any reason.
