Terms for voluntary GLEE Phoenix project support.
This is the boundary layer for contributions. The public site can stay confident; this page carries the strict terms.
Ko-fi is the approved external cashier rail.
Round Zero is in SOFT_LIVE. These are the contribution terms for voluntary Round Zero support. Direct card processing, crypto, x402, accounts, and agent-native payments remain disabled.
What a contribution is, and is not.
Contributions are voluntary project support for GLEE Phoenix Round Zero.
A contribution does not create equity, ownership, shares, tokens, profit share, voting control, loan rights, securities, charitable tax receipts, or guaranteed delivery obligations unless explicitly stated in writing by GLEE Phoenix.
GLEE Phoenix may use contributions for development, infrastructure, hardware, software, research, operations, documentation, publishing, administration, and related project costs.
Supporter credit
Contributors may receive public or private recognition, supporter status, project updates, and access benefits as the platform develops. Recognition is not ownership and is not a financial return.
Round Zero contributions are non-refundable by default.
Round Zero support is voluntary project support. Once a contribution is confirmed, it should be treated as final and non-refundable.
GLEE Phoenix may review a reversal only if required by the payment platform, applicable law, duplicate charge handling, or clear processing error. Project delays, changed-mind requests, and normal development risk are not refund grounds.
