Fondae – Terms of Use

Last Updated: 1 month ago




1. Overview of Fondae

17. Supporting Creators — Understanding Fondae's Role

Fondae was built to empower ambitious creatives, entrepreneurs, and changemakers. Our platform exists to give these individuals and teams a space to share their vision and seek support from those who believe in what they're building.

While we’re honored to host these campaigns, it’s important to clarify what our role is — and what it isn’t.

  1. A Platform, Not a Project Owner
    Fondae provides the tools and infrastructure to help project owners share their ideas and receive donations. However, Fondae is not involved in the creation, execution, or delivery of any project. Each project is the sole responsibility of its creator.

  2. No Guarantee of Completion or Rewards
    We know most creators on Fondae are deeply committed to following through on their plans, but life and projects are unpredictable. We cannot and do not guarantee that every project will be completed, or that any promised rewards will be delivered. Supporting a project is an act of trust and generosity, not a purchase or contract.

  3. Donations Are Voluntary
    When you choose to support a project, you’re making a voluntary donation to a person or team you believe in. Any understanding or expectations beyond that — including communication, updates, or rewards — are between you and the project creator. Fondae is not responsible for managing or enforcing those expectations.

  4. No Liability
    Fondae cannot be held liable for any outcomes related to a campaign — including delays, failure to deliver rewards, or how funds are ultimately used. We do our best to ensure a safe and respectful environment, but the relationship is ultimately between donors and creators.

  5. Encouraging Good Faith
    Most people on Fondae are trying to do something meaningful — and they take the support they receive seriously. We ask everyone to participate in this community with mutual respect, good faith, and understanding.
