Payments
How contributions work
- KRXY is not a registered charity, and contributions are not eligible for Gift Aid.
- Contributions help support KRXY's ongoing research and development activities. They do not purchase goods or services, confer ownership or membership rights, or guarantee any particular research outcome.
- A payment only counts towards the total once Stripe confirms it. Abandoned or failed checkouts are never counted.
- Refunds: if you made a contribution in error or wish to request a refund, contact info@krxy.org with your payment details. Requests are reviewed in accordance with applicable law and these payment terms. Approved refunds are processed through Stripe to the original payment method where possible, and are removed from the Research Support total.
- Payments are processed by Stripe and received by MIK INDUSTRIES LIMITED (company number 15304261), registered in England and Wales. Registered office: 3rd Floor, 86-90 Paul Street, London, EC2A 4NE.
- MIK Industries Limited is not registered for VAT, so VAT is not added to these payments. This page does not describe the payments as exempt, zero-rated, or outside the scope of VAT. This is not legal advice.
Privacy
Payment privacy
- Card details are entered on Stripe's page and never reach KRXY's servers.
- KRXY stores only the amount, status, refund and fee figures and Stripe reference numbers. Your name and email stay with Stripe for the receipt and for fraud prevention, under Stripe's privacy policy.
- Supporters are never listed publicly. A name or logo appears in the contributors section only with explicit permission.
- See the privacy notice and terms for more detail.
