Terms of Service

Effective date: January 07, 2024 Welcome to the products and services (“Services”) provided by QELA (“we”, “us”, “our”, "QELA", “Service”). If you have any questions, comments or concerns regarding these Terms or our Services, please contact us at hello@qela.app

1. Agreement; Structure of Our Terms and Services

1.1. These Terms of Service and any Addenda entered into by you and us (together, the “Terms”), contain the terms and conditions that apply to our Services. By clicking the “I Accept” box, you indicate that these Terms are a binding agreement between you, a supporter of the organization or entity (referred to as “you” or “your”) and us, and that you have read and understood the following terms, including those in our Privacy Policy. QELA is a SaaS and white label software solution for organizations and communities that helps them engage and retain volunteers, donors, customers and supporters. The administrative web platform and the on phone app help campaign managers, community leaders, communications specialists and the marketing team manage, educate, and target a wide audience, and involve them into the decision-making process through news feeds, quests, campaign events, and voting. The solution helps to build and develop a community by enriching an organization's profile and filling it with different types of activities for supporters (participants of the organization) to keep them engaged. It also allows each supporter to create their own profile to participate in these activities. QELA consists of gamification features such as awards for finishing each task (quests): influential points (Weighted Vote) and points for the talents list. Weighted Vote is a part of the voting process and allows committed supporters to have more of a say in votes. This is managed by the QELA Formula, a mathematical function that balances the votes of verified and not verified participants of the voting. More information about the QELA Platform can be found at www.qela.app.
