Plain English, because the whole idea depends on being trusted. If anything here is unclear, email hello@outgive.dev.
outgive is a promotional listing board for software. You can list a project free, or pay to hold a higher position. We are the seller of that listing service. Payments are handled by Gumroad, which acts as the merchant of record.
When you pay for a listing, you are buying placement from us. You are not sending money to another person, and your payment is not held for or forwarded to any third party. Separately, outgive puts a published share of its own revenue toward developer accounts, domains, and hosting that we buy and give to developers who have not shipped yet. That giving is funded from our own revenue, at our discretion. It is not a service you purchase and not a transfer of your funds.
Your amount sets your position. Larger amounts rank higher, and ties go to whoever arrived first. Amounts are lifetime totals, so paying again adds to your total. A paid listing is a promotional placement with a variable price. It is not an auction, and no one wins a pot. Because funds are committed to the giving described above, paid listings are non-refundable once live, except where we remove a listing under the rules.
Free listings are free, forever, with one per email address per day. They follow the same rules as paid ones.
Every listing must follow the listing rules. We remove anything that breaks them and refund any payment, at our sole discretion.
We publish what has been funded and we do not fake it. We make no promise about how much traffic, how many clicks, or how many installs a listing will bring. List because you want the position and want the money to do something, not as guaranteed marketing.
You are responsible for what you list and confirm you have the right to promote it. We may edit or remove listings, or decline service, at our discretion. Your edit link is private: anyone who has it can change your listing, so keep it to yourself.
outgive is provided as is, without warranties. To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for indirect or consequential losses. Nothing here limits liability that cannot be limited by law.
We may update these terms. Any material change will be reflected on this page with a new date above.
