In addition, downloading, installing, or using certain Mobile Services may be prohibited or restricted by your carrier, and not all Mobile Services may work with all carriers or devices.

By using the Platform, you consent to receive information from us via SMS and/or MMS messages sent through an automated telephone dialing system  (“Text Service”), even if you have opted in to the National Do Not Call List, any state Do not Call List, or the internal Do Not Call List of any company. You may be required to respond to an initial message as instructed to complete your registration and confirm enrollment in the Text Service. The enrollment process will disclose the program and options to cancel your enrollment.  You do not have to participate in the Text Service in order to use the Services. In the event you no longer want to participate in the Text Service, you agree to notify us directly. In the event you change or deactivate your mobile telephone number, you agree to promptly update your Company account information to ensure that your messages are not sent to the person that acquires your old number.

There is no additional charge for the Text Service, but your mobile carrier’s standard message and data rates apply to any messages you send or receive through the Text Service, including confirmations and subsequent texts. Your carrier may prohibit or restrict certain mobile features and certain mobile features may be incompatible with your carrier or mobile device. We are not liable for any delays in the receipt of, or any failures to receive, any SMS or MMS messages, as delivery is subject to effective transmission by your mobile carrier and compatibility of your mobile device. Please contact your mobile carrier if you have any questions regarding these issues or your mobile data and messaging plan.

As described in the Text Service enrollment and welcome messages, including messages sent to a shortcode associated with the Text Service or by reply to any message you receive from us, you may text “STOP” to cancel or “HELP” for customer support information. If you choose to cancel your Text Service, you agree to receive a final text message from the Text Service confirming your cancellation.

Fees and Payment

Fees: The Platform is provided free of charge. The total amount for each Contribution will be set forth on the Site and will be confirmed through the Platform before your Contribution is confirmed.

Contribution Type: You agree to provide information for your Contribution type at the time you make a Contribution. You agree to have sufficient funds, stock, crypto currency, or credit available upon placement of any such Contribution to ensure that the Contribution value will be collected by Overflow. Once a Contribution is processed, a payment cannot be cancelled by us and we have no obligation to honor any request to stop, correct, reverse or recall a payment. Overflow is not a payment processor, money services business or other financial institution. Our payment page is powered by third-party processors (collectively, “Third Party Contribution Processors”), WE DO NOT PROCESS PAYMENT FOR ANY CONTRIBUTIONS.  All Visitors and Registered Users acknowledge and agree that the use of Third Party Contribution Processors is essential to the Platform and that we exchange information with Third Party Contribution Processors to facilitate the services provided.

Yodlee utilizes APIs to allow you to view your stock portfolio on the Platform. When you choose the stock to donate, the Platform collects the information from Yodlee’s connection and initiates the stock Contribution request to your brokerage based on the information you select. After you authorize the contribution request through the Platform, the Contribution request is sent to your brokerage (e.g., Schwab, Fidelity, etc.). Your brokerage initiates a stock transfer to the recipient non-profit organization’s brokerage. Overflow also facilitates Contributions through corporate matching programs that may be offered by your employer. To the extent that you choose to make a Contribution through such corporate matching program, such Contribution(s) will be subject to the terms and conditions of the corporate matching policy of your employer. You are responsible for understanding the terms and conditions of any such corporate matching program.  Overflow makes no representation as to the value of any Contribution. STOCK OWNERSHIP IS SUBJECT TO MARKET RISK AND OVERFLOW IS NOT LIABLE OR RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY CHANGES IN THE MARKET VALUE OF CONTRIBUTED STOCK DURING THE TIME BETWEEN WHEN YOU INITIATE THE STOCK CONTRIBUTION AND WHEN THE RECIPIENT NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATION RECEIVES THE CONTRIBUTED STOCK IN ITS BROKERAGE ACCOUNT.
  3. Crypto currency contribution is provided by The Giving Block and Gemini and is subject to the terms and conditions and other policies available at https://thegivingblock.com/about/terms-of-service/, and https://www.gemini.com/legal, respectively (collectively, the “Crypto Processor Agreements”) .

By agreeing to these Terms of Service, Registered Users that use the payment functions of the Platform also agree to be bound by the Stripe Agreements or the Clover Agreements (as applicable), Broker Processor Agreements and/or Crypto Processor Agreements, as applicable, for the payment function the Registered User is using, as the same may be modified by the applicable Third Party Contribution Processor from time to time.

As a condition of Overflow enabling Contribution type processing services through Third Party Contribution Processors, you represent and warrant to Overflow that all information you provide about your payment instruments and/or bank accounts and/or crypto wallet and/or brokerage information is true and that you are authorized to use such payment instrument, bank account, crypto wallet, and/or brokerage account, as applicable. You also authorize Overflow to share such information and other transaction information related to your Contribution type with the applicable Third Party Contribution Processor. You will promptly update your account information with any changes (for example, a change in your billing address or credit card expiration date) that may occur. Overflow assumes no liability or responsibility for any Contributions made through the Platform.

If you elect to initiate recurring payments (which includes recurring donations), you are authorizing us to store and automatically charge your selected method of payment in the payment amount (including fees and charges) and frequency that you designated, without further consent or instructions from you. If you wish to cancel your recurring payments, you may do so by revoking your authorization at least ten (10) business days prior to the next scheduled payment date.

Overflow will process and investigate notices of alleged infringement and will take appropriate actions under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”) and other applicable intellectual property laws with respect to any alleged or actual infringement. A notification of claimed copyright infringement should be emailed to Overflow’s Copyright Agent at support@overflow.co (Subject line: “DMCA Takedown Request”). You may also contact us by mail at 3790 El Camino Real, Unit 568, Palo Alto, CA 94306.

To be effective, the notification must be in writing and contain the following information:

  • an electronic or physical signature of the person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the copyright or other intellectual property interest;
  • a description of the copyrighted work or other intellectual property that you claim has been infringed;
  • a description of where the material that you claim is infringing is located on the Platform, with enough detail that we may find it on the Platform;
  • your address, telephone number, and email address;
  • a statement by you that you have a good faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright or intellectual property owner, its agent, or the law;
  • a statement by you, made under penalty of perjury, that the above information in your Notice is accurate and that you are the copyright or intellectual property owner or authorized to act on the copyright or intellectual property owner’s behalf.

Counter-Notice: If you believe that your User Content that was removed (or to which access was disabled) is not infringing, or that you have the authorization from the copyright owner, the copyright owner’s agent, or pursuant to the law, to upload and use the content in your User Content, you may send a written counter-notice containing the following information to the Copyright Agent:

  • your physical or electronic signature;
  • identification of the content that has been removed or to which access has been disabled and the location at which the content appeared before it was removed or disabled;
  • a statement that you have a good faith belief that the content was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or a misidentification of the content; and
  • your name, address, telephone number, and email address, a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal court located within Northern District of California and a statement that you will accept service of process from the person who provided notification of the alleged infringement.

If a counter-notice is received by the Copyright Agent, Overflow will send a copy of the counter-notice to the original complaining party informing that person that it may replace the removed content or cease disabling it in 10 business days. Unless the copyright owner files an action seeking a court order against the content provider, member or user, the removed content may be replaced, or access to it restored, in 10 to 14 business days or more after receipt of the counter-notice, at our sole discretion.

Repeat Infringer Policy: In accordance with the DMCA and other applicable law, Overflow has adopted a policy of terminating, in appropriate circumstances and at Overflow's sole discretion, users who are deemed to be repeat infringers. Overflow may also at its sole discretion limit access to the Platform and/or terminate the memberships of any users who infringe any intellectual property rights of others, whether or not there is any repeat infringement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, you will have no obligation to indemnify or hold harmless any Indemnitee from or against any liability, losses, damages or expenses incurred as a result of any action or inaction of such Indemnitee. If you are a California resident, you waive California Civil Code Section 1542, which says: “A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor.” If you are a resident of another jurisdiction, you waive any comparable statute or doctrine.

This Dispute Resolution by Binding Arbitration section is referred to in this Terms of Service as the “Arbitration Agreement.” You agree that any and all disputes or claims that have arisen or may arise between you and Overflow, whether arising out of or relating to this Terms of Service (including any alleged breach thereof), the Services, any advertising, any aspect of the relationship or transactions between us, shall be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration, rather than a court, in accordance with the terms of this Arbitration Agreement, except that you may assert individual claims in small claims court, if your claims qualify. Further, this Arbitration Agreement does not preclude you from bringing issues to the attention of federal, state, or local agencies, and such agencies can, if the law allows, seek relief against us on your behalf. You agree that, by entering into this Terms of Service, you and Overflow are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. Your rights will be determined by a neutral arbitrator, not a judge or jury. The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Arbitration Agreement.
  3. Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief
  4. YOU AND OVERFLOW AGREE THAT EACH OF US MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR PROCEEDING. UNLESS BOTH YOU AND OVERFLOW AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE OR JOIN MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S OR PARTY’S CLAIMS AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A CONSOLIDATED, REPRESENTATIVE, OR CLASS PROCEEDING. ALSO, THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD RELIEF (INCLUDING MONETARY, INJUNCTIVE, AND DECLARATORY RELIEF) ONLY IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF NECESSITATED BY THAT PARTY’S INDIVIDUAL CLAIM(S), EXCEPT THAT YOU MAY PURSUE A CLAIM FOR AND THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD PUBLIC INJUNCTIVE RELIEF UNDER APPLICABLE LAW TO THE EXTENT REQUIRED FOR THE ENFORCEABILITY OF THIS PROVISION.
  5. Pre-Arbitration Dispute Resolution
  6. Overflow is always interested in resolving disputes amicably and efficiently, and most customer concerns can be resolved quickly and to the customer’s satisfaction by emailing customer support at support@overflow.co. If such efforts prove unsuccessful, a party who intends to seek arbitration must first send to the other, by certified mail, a written Notice of Dispute (“Notice”). The Notice to Overflow should be sent to 3790 El Camino Real, Unit 568, Palo Alto, CA 94306 (“Notice Address”). The Notice must (i) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute and (ii) set forth the specific relief sought. If Overflow and you do not resolve the claim within sixty (60) calendar days after the Notice is received, you or Overflow may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by Overflow or you shall not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator determines the amount, if any, to which you or Overflow is entitled.
  7. Arbitration Procedures
  8. Arbitration will be conducted by a neutral arbitrator in accordance with the American Arbitration Association’s (“AAA”) rules and procedures, including the AAA’s Consumer Arbitration Rules (collectively, the “AAA Rules”), as modified by this Arbitration Agreement. For information on the AAA, please visit its website, http://www.adr.org. Information about the AAA Rules and fees for consumer disputes can be found at the AAA’s consumer arbitration page, http://www.adr.org/consumer_arbitration. If there is any inconsistency between any term of the AAA Rules and any term of this Arbitration Agreement, the applicable terms of this Arbitration Agreement will control unless the arbitrator determines that the application of the inconsistent Arbitration Agreement terms would not result in a fundamentally fair arbitration. The arbitrator must also follow the provisions of these Terms of Service as a court would. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, including, but not limited to, issues relating to the scope, enforceability, and arbitrability of this Arbitration Agreement. Although arbitration proceedings are usually simpler and more streamlined than trials and other judicial proceedings, the arbitrator can award the same damages and relief on an individual basis that a court can award to an individual under the Terms of Service and applicable law. Decisions by the arbitrator are enforceable in court and may be overturned by a court only for very limited reasons.
  9. Unless Overflow and you agree otherwise, any arbitration hearings will take place in a reasonably convenient location for both parties with due consideration of their ability to travel and other pertinent circumstances. If the parties are unable to agree on a location, the determination shall be made by AAA. If your claim is for $10,000 or less, Overflow agrees that you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator, through a telephonic hearing, or by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules. If your claim exceeds $10,000, the right to a hearing will be determined by the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based.
  10. Costs of Arbitration
  11. Payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees (collectively, the “Arbitration Fees”) will be governed by the AAA Rules, unless otherwise provided in this Arbitration Agreement. If the value of the relief sought is $75,000 or less, at your request, Overflow will pay all Arbitration Fees. If the value of relief sought is more than $75,000 and you are able to demonstrate to the arbitrator that you are economically unable to pay your portion of the Arbitration Fees or if the arbitrator otherwise determines for any reason that you should not be required to pay your portion of the Arbitration Fees, Overflow will pay your portion of such fees. In addition, if you demonstrate to the arbitrator that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, Overflow will pay as much of the Arbitration Fees as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive. Any payment of attorneys’ fees will be governed by the AAA Rules.
  12. Confidentiality
  13. All aspects of the arbitration proceeding, and any ruling, decision, or award by the arbitrator, will be strictly confidential for the benefit of all parties.
  14. Severability
  15. If a court or the arbitrator decides that any term or provision of this Arbitration Agreement (other than the subsection (b) titled “Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief” above) is invalid or unenforceable, the parties agree to replace such term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Arbitration Agreement shall be enforceable as so modified. If a court or the arbitrator decides that any of the provisions of subsection (b) above titled “Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief” are invalid or unenforceable, then the entirety of this Arbitration Agreement shall be null and void, unless such provisions are deemed to be invalid or unenforceable solely with respect to claims for public injunctive relief. The remainder of the Terms of Service will continue to apply.
  16. Future Changes to Arbitration Agreement
  17. Notwithstanding any provision in this Terms of Service to the contrary, Overflow agrees that if it makes any future change to this Arbitration Agreement (other than a change to the Notice Address) while you are a user of the Platform, you may reject any such change by sending Overflow written notice within thirty (30) calendar days of the change to the Notice Address provided above. By rejecting any future change, you are agreeing that you will arbitrate any dispute between us in accordance with the language of this Arbitration Agreement as of the date you first accepted these Terms of Service (or accepted any subsequent changes to these Terms of Service).

Overflow may also in its sole discretion and at any time discontinue providing the Platform, or any part thereof, with or without notice.

The failure of Overflow to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms of Service will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
