The agreement, in sentences you can follow.

Worthly is run by Damjan Dimic s.p., a sole proprietorship registered in Slovenia at Na griču 10, 1000 Ljubljana, Slovenia. Registration number 9102507000, tax number 55647871. Not registered for VAT. Registered 1 April 2022. Written to at hello@worthly.org.

That is one person, trading under his own name, and it is worth saying plainly rather than leaving you to guess from a footer. There is no company behind it, no board, and no investor. The /about page keeps the same list of what does and does not exist yet.

Worthly introduces people. A professional offers a fixed number of half hours and names the charity those hours fund; somebody asks for one; the two of them agree a time and meet. The agreement about the session itself is between those two people. Worthly is not a party to it, does not supervise it, and does not employ, contract or represent anyone listed here.

That also means Worthly cannot promise you that a session will happen, be useful, or be what you expected. What we can promise is the part we control: that no money is taken by us, that a professional’s charity is named before you book, and that anything we publish about what has been raised is a number that actually cleared.

Worthly does not take payments and does not hold money. Nothing on this site can charge you, we hold no card details anywhere, and there is no Worthly account that a euro passes through on its way to a charity.

What happens instead: after the session you decide an amount, and you pay it to the charity the professional named, on that charity's own donate page. We may open that page for you with the amount already filled in and a reference on it, and that is the whole of our involvement. The payment is between you and the charity. Their receipt comes from them, in your name, and any fee their payment provider charges is theirs and is charged to them.

This is why 100% is stated as a fact rather than a promise: there is no point in the path at which money is ours, so there is nothing for us to take, waive or account for. If that ever changes it is a change to how you pay, it appears on /where-the-money-goes before it appears in the product, and these terms change with it.

The half hour is given, not sold. What you decide afterwards is a voluntary donation to a charity and not a price for the session, nobody is owed it, and no screen on this site sets a default, a minimum or a suggested amount. Zero is a legitimate answer: it is not recorded against you, nothing chases it, and you can book again.

We may ask you once or twice whether a payment you told us you were making actually went through, because the only totals we publish are the ones with evidence behind them. That is a question about something that already happened. It is never a request for money, and answering 'I changed my mind' closes it permanently.

Your page is yours. You write what is on it, you name your own charity, and you set the exact availability guests can book. A verified guest who chooses one of those times confirms it immediately.

You can have it taken down at any time by writing to hello@worthly.org, and you do not have to give a reason. We will remove the page and the account behind it. Sessions somebody has already booked are between you and them; tell them, not us.

What you publish has to be yours to publish. Do not put someone else’s work, photograph or client’s name on your page without their agreement, and do not name a charity you are not genuinely funding. If a charity asks us to take its name off the site, we will, and that may mean asking you to name a different one.

Nothing here is employment and nothing here is a contract for services with Worthly. We do not pay you, we never will, and money a giver decides on is never routed to you or through us. They pay the charity directly, and we report nothing about it as your income to anybody.

What we are not going to do is tell you what that means for your own tax. Giving professional work away can affect your position, the answer depends on what you do and how you are registered, and your accountant decides it rather than a website. Name a charity you genuinely intend to fund and keep your own records of the hours you gave.

Choose an open time, answer the preparation question, and verify your email. Worthly holds that time for ten minutes while you verify it; the booking is confirmed when you approve the final summary. You are booking a person’s attention, not a deliverable, and there is no service level behind it.

Say if you cannot make it. Hours here are few and there is no automatic penalty for missing one, but somebody kept it free.

What is said in a session stays between the two of you unless you both agree otherwise. See the confidentiality section below; it applies to both sides.

Both people in a session agree to keep what is said in it private. That covers anything about the other person’s business, finances, plans, customers, code or unreleased work, whether or not anyone labelled it confidential at the time.

It does not cover things already public, things you already knew, things you work out independently afterwards, or anything either of you has to disclose by law. Advice given in a session may of course be used by the person who received it; that is the point of the session.

Nobody may record a session without the other person agreeing first, in that session.

Worthly is not in the room and cannot enforce this between you. It is stated because two people meeting through a website need to know the default, and because the default should be the private one.

A charity’s name may appear here because a professional typed it on their own page. That is a statement about where their money is going. It is not a partnership, not a sponsorship, and not an endorsement of Worthly by that charity. Unless a page says the charity registered itself, nobody there has written a word of it or agreed to anything.

Any charity can have its name removed from this site by writing to hello@worthly.org, with no reason required and no argument from us. We aim to act within two working days, which is what the charity pages promise and what one inbox can keep.

We do not use any charity’s logo, wordmark, brand colours or photographs. Only the name, as plain text, because that is what is needed to say where the money goes.

This is the self-interested part, and it is short. Worthly is provided as it is. We are not liable for what happens in a session, for advice given in one, for a professional or a person who does not turn up, or for losses that follow from any of that. Where the law does not allow us to exclude liability, we do not try to.

Nothing here limits your rights as a consumer under Slovenian or EU law, which sit above this page whatever it says.

You can stop using Worthly whenever you like and ask for your account and your page to be deleted. There is a delete button on your own page and hello@worthly.org works too.

We can remove a page or an account if someone publishes work that is not theirs, names a charity they are not funding, treats another person badly in a session, or uses the site to sell something else. We will say why.

If these terms change in a way that matters, the change is written here first, before it changes anything in the product. That is the same commitment /where-the-money-goes makes about the commission that does not exist.

Slovenian law applies, and the courts of Ljubljana have jurisdiction. As a consumer you may also bring a claim where you live.
