Acceptable use

Working draft. This document describes how ThankNest currently works. It has not been reviewed by a lawyer and must be checked against the law that applies to you, and against the terms of PayPal, your bank and MoMo, before this site is opened to the public.

The short version

Describe a real project honestly, ask for support for it, and be who you say you are.

You must not

• Impersonate another person, project, company or charity, or imply an endorsement you do not have.
• Misrepresent what support will be used for, or claim a status you do not hold - for example describing yourself as a registered charity, or claiming support is tax-deductible.
• Collect support for someone else's payout details without their knowledge and consent.
• Use a page for fraud, laundering or evading sanctions, or to collect payment for illegal goods or services.
• Publish content that is illegal, sexually explicit, involves minors, harasses a person, or incites violence or hatred.
• Publish another person's private information without their consent.
• Upload content you do not hold the rights to.
• Use ThankNest to run a lottery, investment scheme or anything promising a financial return. Support is a thank-you, not a purchase of equity, interest or a prize.
• Attempt to break the service: scraping at scale, probing for vulnerabilities without permission, or working around rate limits.

Reporting

Every page has a report link. Tell us what is wrong and, where you can, how you know. We review reports and may suspend a page while we look into it.

What happens if you breach this

Depending on severity we may ask you to change something, unpublish the page, suspend it, or close the account. Where we can, we will tell you why and allow you to respond through the contact page.
