1. Definitions

• "Organization," "we," "us" — International Legal Initiative Genève.

• "Project" — AdmissusCase.
• "Donor" — a natural or legal person making a donation.

2. Acceptance of the Terms

By using the Site and/or making a Donation, you confirm that you have read and agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Site and do not make Donations.

3. Capacity and Restrictions

3.1. You are 18 or older and act on your own behalf or lawfully on behalf of an entity.

3.2. You confirm you are not subject to sanctions, do not reside in a jurisdiction where making a donation is prohibited, and that the source of funds is lawful.

3.3. We may request supporting documents and may suspend, decline, or return payments where sanctions, compliance, fraud, or AML risks are indicated.

4. Nature of Donations

4.1. Gratuitous nature

Donations are voluntary and do not entitle the Donor to consideration, rights to products/results, or participation in the governance of the Organization/Project.

4.2. Earmarked donations

We apply funds strictly to the purpose indicated by the Donor. If performing the purpose becomes impossible, unlawful, or clearly excessive relative to the Project's needs, we will:

• (a) make reasonable efforts to contact the Donor to agree on the closest alternative purpose or a refund of any unspent balance;
• (b) if no response is received within 30 days from notification, allocate funds to the closest Project activities and publish a corresponding report;
• (c) upon request, the Donor may receive a refund of any unspent balance.

This clause is construed in line with Art. 246 of the Swiss Code of Obligations (OR) (donation with a stipulation).

4.3. Recurring payments

Recurring charges can be managed via the "Manage your donation" link in the confirmation email and/or in your account; cancellations may be made at any time before the next scheduled charge, or by emailing costbackkz@gmail.com.

4.4. Receipts

We issue an electronic receipt for each Donation. Tax deductibility depends on your country of residence and the Organization's status with the relevant authorities; we do not guarantee deductibility — please consult your tax advisor.

5. Payments, Provider, and Currencies

Payments are processed by Stripe on its secure servers; we do not store payment card data. The precise legal Stripe entity is as set out in your Merchant Agreement (e.g., Stripe Payments Europe, Limited / Stripe Technology Europe, Limited).

Available currencies: EUR/USD. Bank fees and FX conversion are determined by your bank/provider. We may use SCA/3‑D Secure and other authentication/anti‑fraud measures. Additional security checks may apply.

6. Refunds and Adjustments

Donations are non‑refundable except for:

• (a) technical error (duplicate charge, incorrect amount),
• (b) fraud or unauthorized transaction,
• (c) cases required by mandatory law.

Please notify us without undue delay after you knew or should have known of the issue; we will liaise with the Payment Provider in accordance with the rules of the payment systems. Goodwill refunds remain at the Organization's discretion.

7. Taxes and VAT

7.1. We issue an electronic receipt confirming receipt of funds. Eligibility for any tax deduction (if applicable) depends on your status and local law; we do not guarantee deductibility and recommend consulting a tax advisor.

7.2. In Switzerland, Donations without consideration are outside the scope of VAT.

8. Independence and Conflicts of Interest

Donations/sponsorship do not grant any right to influence product, research, or advocacy decisions, case selection, or public positions. We may decline a contribution if it conflicts with our mission, independence, or reputation.

9. Sanctions, KYC/AML

We comply with applicable sanctions laws (Switzerland/EU/UK/US) and apply risk‑based compliance measures, including:

• sanctions screening;
• KYC requests (identity, country of residence, source of funds);
• suspension, refusal, or return of payments where sanctions, AML, or fraud risks are indicated;
• notifying competent authorities where required by applicable law.

This section does not render the Organization a financial intermediary within the meaning of Swiss AMLA.
