PWI Terms & Privacy Policy
Privacy Policy
We recognize the importance of protecting the privacy of personal information about our customers. Personal information includes all of the personally identifying information that is provided to us. We are sensitive to these privacy interests and believe that protecting valuable personal/financial information is one of our most significant responsibilities.
The policies outlined below describe our policies to protect your privacy.
Use, Collection and Retention of Client Information
We collect, retain and use only the information about our customers that is required by law to administer our business and provide high level services to our clients. We retain this information no longer than necessary to meet these objectives. All transmitted credit card information is handled securely through digitally encrypted Secure Socket Layers (SSL) technology.
Spam Policy
Spam is flooding the Internet with many copies of the same message, in an attempt to force the message on people who would not otherwise choose to receive it. Email spam targets individual users with direct mail messages and costs the sender very little to send. Most of the costs are paid for by the recipient or the carriers rather than by the sender.
We don't condone the use of spam and the sending of unsolicited email in any form, nor do we control other web sites involvement and/or practices in this area.

PROJECT WORLD IMPACT’S ROLE
PWI provides a platform for third-party sellers ("Sellers") and buyers ("Buyers") to complete transactions. Project World Impact is not involved in the actual transaction between Sellers and Buyers. Without limitation, you may not list any item or link or post any related material that (a) infringes any third-party intellectual property rights (including copyright, trademark, patent, and trade secrets) or other proprietary rights (including rights of publicity or privacy); (b) constitutes libel or slander or is otherwise defamatory; (c) is counterfeited, illegal, stolen, or fraudulent; or (d) is included on our Restricted Items list. It is up to the Seller to accurately describe the item for sale. As a Seller, you use the Site and the Services at your own risk.
BECAUSE PWI IS NOT INVOLVED IN TRANSACTIONS BETWEEN BUYERS AND SELLERS OR OTHER PARTICIPANT DEALINGS, IF A DISPUTE ARISES BETWEEN ONE OR MORE PARTICIPANTS, EACH OF YOU RELEASE PWI (AND OUR RESPECTIVE AGENTS AND EMPLOYEES) FROM CLAIMS, DEMANDS, AND DAMAGES (ACTUAL AND CONSEQUENTIAL) OF EVERY KIND AND NATURE, KNOWN AND UNKNOWN, SUSPECTED AND UNSUSPECTED, DISCLOSED AND UNDISCLOSED, ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH SUCH DISPUTES.
FAIR TRADE AND CAUSE RELATED PRODUCTS SOLD
Project World Impact charges a 15% transaction fee from the final selling price for all products sold on the site by Registered Nonprofit, Fair Trade, and Cause-Related Goods Users. The credit card processing fee for all transactions is covered by Project World Impact and is included in the 15% transaction fee. Registered Fair Trade, Nonprofit and Cause Related Goods Sellers are responsible for the shipping and handling of all items sold on projectworldimpact.com.
Project World Impact will hold the funds from purchases made on the Site until the product is delivered and verified, up to 30 days. After 30 days, PWI will release the funds to the Seller as long as there is no ongoing conflict or dissatisfaction with the product from the Consumer. Consumers have up to 30 days to report a problem with their product.
RISK OF LOSS
All items purchased from Project World Impact are made pursuant to a shipment contract. This means that the risk of loss and title for such items pass to the purchaser upon delivery to the carrier.
RETURNS, REFUNDS AND TITLE
Project World Impact does not take title to returned items. Items must be returned to the original Seller within 30 days of purchase. Refunds and returns should be handled exclusively between the Buyer and Seller. However, if the Buyer and Seller are unable to reach an agreement, then PWI may be contacted within 30 days of purchase and we will make the final decision based on the information provided. The final decision of PWI cannot be overruled.
You, the Seller, will accept and process returns, refunds and adjustments in accordance with this Participation Agreement and the PWI return policies published on the Site at the time of the applicable order, and we may inform customers that these policies apply to your products. You will determine and calculate the amount of all refunds and adjustments (including any taxes, shipping and handling or other charges) or other amounts to be paid by you to Buyers in connection with Your Transactions, using functionality we enable for your account, and will route all such payments through PWI. You will promptly provide refunds and adjustments that you are obligated to provide under the applicable PWI return policies and as required by law, and in no case later than thirty (30) days after the obligation arises.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTIONS
Project World Impact attempts to be as accurate as possible. However, PWI does not warrant that product descriptions or other content of any PWI Service is accurate, complete, reliable, current, or error-free. If a product offered by Project World Impact is not as described, your sole remedy is to return it in unused condition to the individual Seller within 30 days of purchase.
THE TRANSACTION PROCESSING SERVICE
By registering for or using the Services, you authorize PWI to act as your agent for purposes of processing payments, refunds, and adjustments for Your Transactions (as defined below), receiving and holding Sales Proceeds (as defined below) on your behalf, remitting Sales Proceeds to your bank account, charging your credit card, and paying PWI and our affiliates amounts you owe in accordance with this Participation Agreement or other agreements you may have with PWI or our affiliates (collectively, the "Transaction Processing Service"). "Sales Proceeds" means the gross proceeds from any of Your Transactions, including all shipping and handling, other charges, but excluding any taxes separately stated and charged. "Your Transaction" means any sale of your items through the Site. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Participation Agreement, PWI may in its discretion perform the Transaction Processing Services described in this Section.
a. The Transaction Processing Service facilitates the purchase of Seller items listed on the Site. Sales Proceeds are credited to a registered Seller's Payment Account and funds are periodically transferred to the Seller's designated bank account ("Seller's Account"). When a Buyer instructs us to pay you, you agree that the Buyer authorizes and orders us to commit the Buyer's payment to you (less any applicable fees or other amounts we may collect under this Participation Agreement). You agree that Buyers satisfy their obligations to you for Your Transactions when we receive the Sales Proceeds. Our obligation to remit funds received by us on your behalf is limited to funds that we have actually received less amounts owed to PWI, subject to chargeback or reversal or withheld for anticipated claims in accordance with this Participation Agreement. The Transaction Processing Service helps facilitate Your Transactions and neither we nor our affiliates are the purchaser of the Seller's goods. Seller will resolve any dispute directly with Buyer or with the assistance of the PWI. You must provide us true and accurate information when registering and must maintain and update that information as applicable. We may at any time require you to provide any financial, business or personal information we request to verify your identity. Seller will not impersonate any person or use a name he or she is not legally authorized to use. Seller authorizes us to verify his or her information (including any updated information), to obtain credit reports about Seller in order to approve Seller for use of the Transaction Processing Service and also from time to time while Seller is registered with the Transaction Processing Service (including credit reports about Seller's spouse if Seller lives in a community property state), and to obtain an initial credit authorization from Seller's credit card issuer at time of registration.
b. Sales Proceeds can be credited only to bank accounts in the United States (which functionality may be modified or discontinued by us at any time without notice).
c. The Transaction Processing Service is generally available seven (7) days per week, twenty-four (24) hours per day, except for scheduled downtime due to system maintenance. We can initiate credits to Seller's Account only on a Business Day when the automated clearinghouses are open for business. For purposes of this Participation Agreement, a "Business Day" is a Monday through Friday, excluding federal banking holidays. We will inform you of each completed transaction using our standard procedures. In addition, you can access your Transaction Processing Service transaction information online in your Payment Account.
d. If we or our affiliates reasonably conclude based on information available to us or our affiliates that Seller's actions and/or performance in connection with the Services may result in Buyer disputes, chargebacks or other claims, then we may, in our sole discretion, delay initiating any remittances and withhold any payments to be made or that are otherwise due to you in connection with the Services or this Participation Agreement until the completion of any investigation(s) regarding any Seller actions and/or performance in connection with this Participation Agreement. We will not be liable to Seller if we act in accordance with the provisions of this Section.
e. All notices will be sent by email or will be posted on the Site or by any other means then specified by us or PWI. We will send notices to Seller at the email address maintained in our or PWI's records for Seller. Seller will monitor his or her email messages frequently to ensure awareness of any notices sent by us or PWI.
f. We may refuse service to anyone for any reason. We will not bear the risk of credit card fraud (i.e., fraudulent purchase arising from the theft and unauthorized use of a third party's credit card information) occurring in connection with Your Transactions, and Seller will bear all other risk of fraud or loss; provided, that we will not bear the risk of credit card fraud in connection with any of Seller's products that are not fulfilled strictly in accordance with the order information and shipping information that PWI provides you. PWI reserves the right to seek reimbursement from Seller if PWI, in our sole discretion, decide to reimburse Buyer, provide a refund to Buyer if Seller cannot promptly deliver the goods, discover erroneous or duplicate transactions, or receive a chargeback from Buyer's credit card issuer for the amount of Buyer's purchase from Seller. We may obtain reimbursement of any amounts owed by Seller to PWI or us by deducting from future payments owed to Seller, reversing any credits to Seller's Account, charging Seller's credit card, or seeking such reimbursement from Seller by any other lawful means. You authorize us to use any or all of the foregoing methods to seek reimbursement, including the debiting of your credit card or bank account.
g. Sales Proceeds will be held in an account with PWI (a "Payment Account") and will represent an unsecured claim against PWI. Sales Proceeds are not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Prior to disbursing funds to you, PWI may combine Sales Proceeds held with the funds of other users of the Services, invest them , or use them for other purposes permitted by applicable laws. You will not receive interest or any other earnings on any Sales Proceeds. To the extent required by applicable laws, PWI will not use any funds held on your behalf for our corporate purposes, will not voluntarily make such funds available to our creditors in the event of bankruptcy or for any other purpose, and will not knowingly permit our creditors to attach such funds.
h. PWI retains the right to delay or suspend listing of, or to refuse to list, or to de-list, or to require Seller not to list, any or all products in our sole discretion. We may in our sole discretion withhold for investigation, refuse to process, restrict shipping destinations for, stop and/or cancel any of Your Transactions. You will stop and/or cancel orders of your products if we ask you to do so (provided that if you have transferred your products to the applicable carrier or shipper, you will use commercially reasonable efforts to stop and/or cancel delivery by such carrier or shipper). You will refund any customer (in accordance with this Participation Agreement) that has been charged for an order that we stop or cancel.
YOUR TRANSACTIONS
a. For sales where a Seller lists goods at a fixed price ("fixed price sales"), the Seller is obligated to sell the goods at the listed price to Buyers who meet the Seller's terms. By listing an item in a fixed price sale, you represent and warrant to prospective Buyers that you have the right and ability to sell, and that the listing is accurate, current, and complete and is not misleading or otherwise deceptive.
b. For fixed price sales, Seller will determine the purchase price for each item he or she lists on the Site via and subject to projectworldimpact.com's standard functionality for listing the purchase price, provided that Seller must abide by the same procedures and guidelines contained here.
YOUR OBLIGATION AS A SELLER
By entering into this Participation Agreement and posting a listing for fixed price sale, you, the Seller, agree to complete the transaction as described by this Participation Agreement. This includes being responsible for shipping and handling of any items purchased through your store on projectworldimpact.com. You acknowledge that by not fulfilling these obligations, your action or inaction may be legally actionable.
SELLER TAXES
PWI will automatically add seller tax to items based on their shipping address, to the best of our ability. PWI is not responsible for determining the exact amount of sales tax per item. "Seller Taxes" means any and all sales, goods and services, use, excise, import, export, value added, consumption and other taxes and duties assessed, incurred or required to be collected or paid for any reason in connection with any advertisement, offer or sale of products by you on or through the Site, or otherwise in connection with any action, inaction or omission of you or any of affiliate of yours, or any of your or their respective employees, agents, contractors or representatives.
