Terms of Service

Last Updated: January 2, 2024

We like to keep things simple around here and in short, we do not require a long-term contract or agreement, we do not require you to exclusively use our platform. If you at any time become unhappy with our platform or service, settle your tab and stop using the service, it really is that simple, but lawyers really like long-winded paragraphs so here is the long way of saying all of this.​

​

No Organization has any right to view, learn of, or take ownership over any data in the Sponsor Jawn Database and your Organization will not be granted access or provided information about possible sponsors at any time. Only when a sponsorship is purchased via the Sponsor Jawn network will your Organization be provided the information for the Sponsor via the separate invoicing system. Your Organization should be aware, cross solicitation does occur for all contacts in the database, and all sponsors who purchase through the platform are added to the solicitation database, this will include any sponsor whom you personally direct to use the platform or provided to Sponsor Jawn to solicit on your behalf and were not previously in the database before you directed them there.  Sponsor Jawn cannot and will not silo off or offer any level of exclusivity to an individual Organization.

However, the use of this platform constitutes your acceptance of these terms as written and published on our website at the time of the transaction.  Your Organization is not permitted to create invoices in the invoice system and cannot do so for any item sold off the platform. Your Organization cannot benefit from discounted rates with our vendors for any item not purchased through the platform.

For any item ordered through our vendors on the Platform, your Organization is responsible for the purchase price of the supplies (banners, uniform, etc.) at the time of purchase, regardless of payment from the Sponsor.  Sponsor Jawn cannot be responsible for the failure of payment by Sponsor and will not assume any liability for the amount owed to Vendor.
