We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms, contain false information, or are used to engage in fraudulent activity.

4. Campaigns and content

Blue Skye Foundation allows users (“Creators”) to create fundraising campaigns. By publishing a campaign, you represent and warrant that:

All information provided is accurate, complete, and not misleading;

If raising funds for a beneficiary other than yourself, you have that beneficiary’s consent;
You will use funds raised solely for the purpose described in the campaign; and

You retain all rights in the content you submit. By submitting content, you grant Blue Skye Foundation a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, reproduce, display, and distribute the content for the purpose of operating and promoting the Services.

5. Donations and payments

Donations made through the Services are processed by third-party payment processors (such as Stripe, Inc.). By making a donation, you agree to the payment processor’s terms in addition to these Terms.

Donations are generally non-refundable. However, if a campaign is found to violate these Terms or applicable law, we may, at our discretion, return funds to donors.

Donors acknowledge that Blue Skye Foundation is not responsible for how a Creator uses funds received through a campaign and makes no representation that any campaign will achieve its stated goal.

6. Fees

Blue Skye Foundation may charge platform fees and pass-through payment processing fees on each donation. All applicable fees will be disclosed clearly before a donation is confirmed. We reserve the right to update our fee structure with notice posted on our website.

7. Withdrawals and verification

Before withdrawing funds, Creators must complete identity verification, which may include providing a government-issued ID, proof of address, and bank account information. Verification is performed by us or our payment processor in accordance with applicable anti-money-laundering and know-your-customer laws.

We reserve the right to delay, hold, or reject withdrawals if we suspect fraud, policy violations, or to comply with legal obligations.
