Terms & Conditions

Squirrelled Member Agreement

1. Introduction

This Agreement is a legal document, which sets out your rights and obligations, and those of Squirrelled ("we", "us" or "Squirrelled"), in relation to Squirrelled's site and app and the services offered by us through them (each a "Squirrelled Service"). You must take the time to read and understand it before registering for the Squirrelled Services. By registering or transacting with us, you accept that you are entering into a contract with us on the terms of this Agreement. You should be aware that this Agreement may change from time to time in accordance with Clause 16 below. When you register for or transact with or through the Squirrelled Services you establish an "Account" and become a "Member".

2. The Squirrelled Services

The Squirrelled Services allows Members to make purchases from retailers which may qualify for cashback.

The Squirrelled Services today are:

• The Squirrelled cashback service for website and app-based transactions

This allows Members to raise these monies through Squirrelled’s arrangements with certain Retailers. Under these arrangements, if Members complete Actions, Retailers pay Commission and Squirrelled will then pay such agreed proportion of the Commission to the nominated School / PTA as Donations, subject to these Terms.

This is how it works. Squirrelled receives a referral fee ("Referral Fee") for qualifying purchases the Member makes from a retailer (“Qualifying Transaction”). The Referral Fee is payable to Squirrelled by the retailer once the retailer confirms that a Qualifying Transaction has been made.

On receipt of the Referral Fee that Squirrelled receives, we will make cashback payments to Members in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. We also make a donation of part of the cashback to the affiliated School / PTA

Members who have entered into Qualifying Transactions for which Referral Fees have been received by us will be able to see a positive account balance on their Account (a "Balance") which will reflect the applicable cashback rate advertised on the Squirrelled website or app for the Qualifying Transactions. A Balance does not itself represent a sum of money held by Squirrelled on a Member's behalf.

The Balance will be converted into a cashback amount ("Cashback") when the Member requests payment of the Balance (“Balance Withdrawal Request”).

Cashback will only be payable to you once all checks relating to such payment have successfully been completed in accordance with our internal policies. See Clause 4 for more about Cashback. When we refer to retailers, we mean sellers and suppliers of goods or services that agree to enter into Qualifying Transactions and pay us Referral Fees.

• Squirrelled cashback service for website and app-based transactions:
  • a Qualifying Transaction is entered into by a Member through the Squirrelled website or app with a retailer for an offer the retailer makes through the Squirrelled website or app
  • you can find out more on the FAQ section of our website.                                                

3. Obtaining an Account

You must be at least 16 years of age to obtain an Account. A person may have no more than one Account. You must be a resident of the UK to register for a Squirrelled Account.

In using or registering for the Squirrelled Services, you must provide accurate and current information about yourself, including, where requested, your correct name, address, and any other requested details. If you are asked for, and provide, details of a bank account into which you wish to receive payments (your “Cashback Withdrawal Method”), you (a) must ensure that you are, and remain, fully entitled to use that Cashback Withdrawal Method, (b) confirm that you wish to receive Cashback through that Cashback Withdrawal Method, and (c) ensure that the details of that Cashback Withdrawal Method are, and continue to be, accurate. You should keep this information updated through your Account.

Our  privacynotice contains important information on how we deal with your personal information you provide through your Squirrelled Account, including information derived from activity through your Cashback Withdrawal Method.

Note that your Cashback Withdrawal Method may have rules about the maximum or minimum payment that you can receive through that Cashback Withdrawal Method.

Important: You must ensure that the email address we hold for you is kept up-to-date and that you have full access to it - we will be sending you important messages there. If you change email address, then you must change the address we hold for you on your Account.

4. Cashback to Member

After an Member successfully completes a Qualifying Transaction for which we have received the Referral Fee and the Member has made a Balance Withdrawal Request in accordance with Clause 2 of this Agreement, we pass the related Cashback on to the Member through his/her Cashback Withdrawal Method once all necessary checks relating to the payment have successfully been completed in accordance with our internal policies.

Please note that there are various circumstances in which a transaction with a retailer may not constitute a Qualifying Transaction and Cashback may not result from it. Our in app FAQs provide further information about these circumstances. There  are various circumstances in which sums will not appear in a Member's Balance, and will be forfeited to us, namely:

• where a Referral Fee is received by us but is not attributed to a Qualifying Transaction or associated with an Account (such as where the Member is not logged-in to the Squirrelled Service when making the relevant purchase)
• the transaction in question is cancelled after it has been entered into, for example where a purchased product is returned or a right to cancel the transaction is exercised
• a Balance is attributed to a Member or Account that has been:
  • suspended by us under Clause 8 of this Agreement;
  • associated with any fraudulent activity or any breach of this Agreement;
  • used to make purchases on behalf of, or for the benefit of, any other person
• where a Balance is attributable to an Account that has been inactive for more than six months: an Account is inactive where the Member does not log into it.

Our in app FAQs provide further information about these circumstances.

5. Intellectual Property

By uploading or including any material on the Squirrelled Service, a Member expressly grants:

6. Privacy Notice

Our privacy notice sets out details of how we handle your personal data and related matters.

Given the global nature of the World Wide Web, please note that a posting on the Squirrelled Service may be accessible to internet users around the world.

7. Our Role

Squirrelled is not a party to any transactions with retailers, and is not the seller or supplier of, and does not endorse, any of the goods or services that they make available. Thus we do not have any of the legal obligations that apply to the sellers of those goods or services.

Accordingly, we have no control over or responsibility for:

• the quality, safety, or legality of the goods or services available from retailers; or
• whether the retailer can or will supply and pass good title to any goods or services.

Members should exercise no lesser degree of caution in entering into transactions with retailers than they would when entering into a similar transaction elsewhere.

To the extent that the law permits, you release us, our agents and employees from all liability arising out of or in connection with any transactions with retailers, including (without limitation) all claims and demands relating to transactions (whether completed or uncompleted) with retailers, or goods or services offered for sale or supply, or actually sold or supplied, through or in connection with any transactions with retailers.

8. Misuse

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate any Members access to the Squirrelled Services, or parts of it, if in our reasonable view the relevant Member or Account appears to be in breach of any provision of this Agreement.

An Account should be used only for purchases on the Member's own behalf, and not on the behalf of, or for the benefit of, any other person(s).

Members must not enter into, or attempt to enter into, any transaction with a retailer or to endeavour to gain Cashback (a) by providing personal information of someone else, or a payment method which they are not entitled to use, (b) by deceptively or unfairly exploiting a retailer's offering, or (c) in breach of any terms and conditions applied by Squirrelled or the retailer to that transaction.

It is each Member's obligation to ensure that any material posted by him/her or associated with his/her Account:

• is not defamatory, offensive, or abusive or of an obscene, indecent or menacing nature;
• is not intended or likely to cause needless annoyance, inconvenience or distress to any person;
• does not contain any computer virus, macro virus, Trojan horse, worm, or anything else designed to interfere with, interrupt, or disrupt the normal operating procedures of a computer or to surreptitiously intercept, access without authority, or expropriate any system, data or personal information;
• does not contravene any applicable law or regulation (including, but not limited to, laws governing consumer protection, distance selling, unfair competition, anti-discrimination, false advertising, copyright, trademark and privacy);
• does not breach the rights of any person or entity (including any rights or expectations of privacy); where it constitutes feedback on a retailer, is accurate and fair; and
• does not advertise any goods or services.

We are not liable for the review or monitoring of any such material. If you see or experience anything on the Squirrelled Services that appears to infringe any of the above requirements, we would like you to inform us by emailing support@squirrelled.com

Each Member acknowledges that we are entitled, but not obliged, to withdraw any material, which appears - based on information received from third parties or other Members – to be in breach of this Agreement.

9. Contact from third parties

If anyone contacts us in relation to material or transactions associated with you or your Account, then you agree:

• to provide all reasonable information and assistance we may require in connection with responding to that contact; and
• to respond promptly and accurately to it, should we pass the message to you for a response.

10. Additional services

We or our partners may offer new or additional services through the Squirrelled Services from time to time. Your use of those services may be subject to additional terms and conditions, which you must comply with. Provided that those terms are notified to you on the Squirrelled Services in an appropriate manner when you agree to take those services, any failure by you to comply with a material provision of the terms governing those services will amount to a breach of this Agreement.

11. Operation of the Squirrelled Service

We reserve the right to withdraw, modify or suspend aspects of any Squirrelled Service, or the entirety of it, where we have legal, security, technical or commercial reasons to do so. We will endeavour to give you 30 days advance notice before taking such action, except where it is necessary to take earlier action for security reasons or because of technical difficulties which adversely affect the Squirrelled Service. There may also be times when the Squirrelled Service becomes inaccessible as a result of technical difficulties experienced by Squirrelled or on the Internet; we will, however, use reasonable skill and care to overcome these difficulties where they are within our control. Please note, however, that we cannot guarantee continuous access to the Squirrelled Service or any of the content that appears on it.

Nevertheless, we will strive to ensure that any periods of planned unavailability, which you will be informed of when you access the Squirrelled Service at the relevant time, are kept to a minimum.

For security or other reasons, we may require you to change password or other information which facilitates access to the Squirrelled Service; however, we will never ask you for your password via email, telephone, or any other means other than through the www.Squirrelled.com website or Squirrelled App. You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password and any additional identifying information.

• commencing no less than thirty days after the date of posting (or such later date as we indicate in the relevant posting), if any of the changes is to an operative provision of this Agreement which is capable of adversely affecting you; if you do not wish to be governed by the new version of the Agreement, you may notify us on or before the date when the new version of the Agreement is to take effect, and from that date you must cease to use the Squirrelled Services; or
• immediately upon the date of posting (or such later date as we indicate in the relevant posting), if the changes are not to operative provisions, or not capable of adversely affecting you - examples of which would include, without limitation, changes to contact details referred to, or the refinement of provisions that are already included, in this Agreement.
