  1. DONATIONS FOR CAUSES

This website may enable you to give money to the ISPORT Foundation generally or in relation to one or more causes (a ‘Donation’). All Donations made through this website, or through any other means, are donated to the ISPORT Foundation and not to any other person. ISPORT Foundation has an absolute discretion as to how such Donations are to be used for its charitable purposes.

No amount given to us shall become a receipted donation (‘Receipted Donation’) except to the extent that the ISPORT Foundation issues a receipt in relation to that amount. Where the Donation is given in relation to a cause, the ISPORT Foundation will issue a receipt only when the ISPORT Foundation decides, in its absolute discretion, that it will either grant an amount to a cause or will allocate a Donation to another purpose (see section 9 below). Where an amount is granted to a cause, ISPORT Foundation will grant some or all of the amounts of all Donations made in relation to that cause after deducting associated administration costs (see section 10 below).

We reserve the right to remove any cause from this website (regardless of whether or not we have received any Donation in relation to that cause).

  1. USE OF DONATIONS FOR ANOTHER PURPOSE

To the extent that Donations received in relation to a particular cause are not ultimately granted to that cause, including where the ISPORT Foundation receives Donations that amount to a greater sum than is required for a particular cause or receives a Donation after a particular cause has closed, the ISPORT Foundation may either:

  1. Using the email address or other contact details provided by the relevant donor, invite the relevant donor to agree that the ISPORT Foundation may allocate such Donation to a different cause, or treat it as a donation to the ISPORT Foundation for its general charitable purposes or other agreed purpose; or
  2. If the ISPORT Foundation holds contact details for the relevant donor, refund such Donation to the relevant donor by crediting their credit card or bank account by the amount donated by that person minus a 10% administration fee.

Nothing limits the right of ISPORT Foundation to use such Donations, or part of such Donations, in accordance with ISPORT Foundation’s charitable purposes.

  1. ADMINISTRATION COSTS

In the event that the ISPORT Foundation grants some or all of the amount of a Donation to a cause, we will withhold 10% of the Receipted Donations given in relation to such causes to cover the costs associated with administering iSPORT and its causes.

  1. ONLINE PAYMENT PROCESS

By making any Donation through this website you authorise us or our nominated third-party payment service provider, SwipeHQ New Zealand (https://www.swipehq.co.nz/) or PayPal, to charge your credit card or bank account using the details supplied by you. If there is a problem with your payment (for example, if your credit card transaction is declined), we may contact you to make alternative payment arrangements.

  1. MANUAL DONATIONS

If you make a Donation to ISPORT Foundation in relation to a cause by any means other than through this website, including by giving cash, making a bank deposit, or by sending a cheque, the following terms apply to that Donation:

1             To the extent reasonably possible we will endeavour to treat that Donation as if it were a Donation made through this website.

2             You are responsible for providing us with the following information:

The name of iSPORT cause that your Donation is made in support of.

Your contact details, including your name, address, contact phone number and email address.

3             If you do not provide us with the above information, you acknowledge that we may be unable to (and have no responsibility to) acknowledge your Donation, provide you with a receipt, or contact you if your Donation is not allocated to the cause that you wished to support.

4             The ISPORT Foundation accepts no responsibility for ensuring that such Donations are received by us.

  1. TAX

ISPORT Foundation is a registered charity with the Department of Internal Affairs. All Receipted Donations from individuals qualify for a 33% credit up to the annual net income of the donor. Companies (including unlisted close companies) and Maori Authorities may be also entitled to a tax deduction for Receipted Donations made to charitable organisations, limited only by the entity’s net income.
