Terms of Service
The terms that govern your use of Givingplatforms.
Last updated: 2026-05-27
1. Acceptance of these terms
Givingplatforms.com ("the site", "we", "us") is operated by WhyDonate B.V., a company registered in the Netherlands. By accessing or using the site you agree to these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.
2. What the site is
Givingplatforms is an independent editorial comparison site for donation crowdfunding platforms. It publishes reviews, comparisons, fee information, and country guides. The content is informational and editorial in nature.
3. No professional advice
The site does not provide financial, legal, tax, or professional advice. Fees, features, and policies of third-party platforms change frequently and may differ by region, currency, and account type. We make reasonable efforts to keep information accurate and show a "last verified" date, but we do not warrant that all information is complete, current, or error-free. Verify details directly with the relevant platform before relying on them.
4. Intellectual property
The site's editorial content, design, and compilation are owned by WhyDonate B.V. or its licensors and are protected by intellectual-property laws. Platform names, logos, and trademarks shown on the site belong to their respective owners and are used for identification and editorial commentary only.
5. Acceptable use
You agree not to misuse the site, including by attempting to disrupt it, scraping it at a scale that degrades service, circumventing access controls, or using it for unlawful purposes.
6. Third-party links and content
The site links to and references third-party platforms and may embed third-party signals (for example, Trustpilot ratings with attribution). We are not responsible for the content, policies, or availability of third-party sites.
7. Disclaimers and limitation of liability
The site is provided "as is" and "as available". To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, and we are not liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential loss arising from your use of, or reliance on, the site or its content. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law.
8. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms from time to time. The "last updated" date above reflects the current version. Continued use of the site after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
9. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the Netherlands, and disputes are subject to the jurisdiction of the competent courts in the Netherlands, except where mandatory consumer-protection law provides otherwise.
