1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using the Mizaad platform ("Service"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you disagree with any part of these terms, you may not access the Service.

These Terms apply to all visitors, users, donors, beneficiaries, and others who access or use the Service.

2. Use License

Subject to these Terms, Mizaad grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to:

  • Access and use the Service for personal, non-commercial purposes
  • Make donations to verified campaigns

This license does not include: (a) resale or commercial use of the Service or its contents; (b) distribution, public performance, or public display of any Service content; (c) modifying or making derivative uses of the Service or its contents; or (d) use of data mining, robots, or similar data gathering or extraction methods.

3. User Accounts

When you create an account with us, you must provide accurate, complete, and current information. Failure to do so constitutes a breach of the Terms, which may result in immediate termination of your account.

You are responsible for:

  • Maintaining the confidentiality of your password and account
  • All activities that occur under your account
  • Notifying us immediately of any unauthorized use
  • Ensuring you log out at the end of each session

We reserve the right to refuse service, terminate accounts, or cancel orders in our sole discretion.

4. Donations

Platform Fee: Mizaad charges a 5% platform fee on all donations to cover operational costs. This fee is clearly disclosed before you complete your donation.

Tax Deductibility: Donations to 501(c)(3) registered organizations may be tax-deductible. You will receive a receipt for your records. Please consult with a tax advisor regarding deductibility.

Refund Policy: All donations are final. Refund requests are considered on a case-by-case basis within 30 days of the donation. Contact our support team for refund inquiries.

Recurring Donations: You may set up recurring monthly donations. You can modify or cancel your recurring donation at any time from your account dashboard.

Fund Distribution: Funds are typically transferred to beneficiary organizations within 3-5 business days after a donation is received, subject to verification and security checks.

5. Campaigns

Eligibility: Only verified registered non-profit organizations may create campaigns on Mizaad. Personal fundraising campaigns are not permitted.

Verification Process: All beneficiary organizations must undergo a thorough verification process including background checks, document verification, and Islamic compliance review (typically 3-5 business days).

Campaign Content: Campaign creators are responsible for the accuracy and truthfulness of all campaign information. Misleading or fraudulent campaigns will be immediately removed and may result in legal action.

Goal Not Reached: If a campaign does not reach its funding goal, all funds raised are still disbursed to the beneficiary organization. Mizaad does not operate on an "all-or-nothing" model.

Updates: Campaign creators are expected to provide regular updates to donors about the progress and impact of their campaigns.
