RegiSTAR US – Terms of Service
Last Updated: 01/01/2026
1. Welcome to RegiSTARUS.com
Welcome to RegiSTARUS.com (the “Site” or “Platform”), operated by
RegiSTAR US Ltd. (“RegiSTAR US,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). RegiSTAR US is a software-as-a-service
(SaaS) platform designed to help nonprofit organizations, their advisors, and service providers
manage and track state charitable registrations, renewals, and related compliance tasks.
By accessing or using the Site or Platform (including any customer logins, dashboards, project
workspaces, questionnaires, and document management features), you (“User,” “you,” or “your”)
agree to be bound by these Terms of Service (“TOS”). If you do not agree with these terms, you
must discontinue use of the Site and Platform.
Age Restriction: You must be at least 18 years old to access or use this Site and Platform.
2. Nature of the Platform & Content
-
Primary Purpose: RegiSTAR US provides tools to manage nonprofit registration
and compliance–related workflows, including but not limited to:
- Tracking state charitable registration and renewal requirements;
- Managing annual filing projects and fiscal years;
- Collecting information via questionnaires and forms;
- Managing document requirements and uploads (e.g., organizational documents, financials, contracts);
- Tracking deadlines, statuses, and internal notes for registrations and filings.
The Platform is intended primarily for organizations and professional users (e.g., nonprofits,
consultants, accountants, and attorneys) rather than consumers.
-
Informational Content: The Site may include informational content such as help text,
knowledge base entries, blogs, or guides about nonprofit registration and compliance topics.
This content is for general informational purposes only and does not constitute legal, tax,
or accounting advice.
-
Global Access: Users from any jurisdiction may access the Site, but the Platform is
primarily focused on U.S. state charitable registration and related regulatory workflows.
You are responsible for ensuring that your use of the Platform complies with the laws applicable
to you.
3. Membership, Subscriptions & Paid Services
-
Paid Services: Access to the RegiSTAR US Platform and related services may be
provided under a subscription, retainer, or service agreement. This can include:
monthly or annual subscriptions, per-project or per-filing fees, onboarding/implementation fees,
or other agreed pricing structures.
-
Billing & Invoicing: Unless otherwise agreed in writing, invoices are due in accordance
with the payment terms specified in your service agreement or invoice. Payments may be accepted
via check, ACH, wire transfer, or another method mutually agreed upon.
-
No Refunds (Unless Otherwise Stated): Due to the nature of software access and
professional/implementation work, fees paid for services or subscriptions are generally
non-refundable, except where required by law or explicitly stated in a separate written agreement.
-
Cancellation: For recurring subscriptions, you may cancel by providing written notice
in accordance with your service agreement (for example, a thirty (30) day notice before the
next billing period). Cancellation will prevent future renewals but will not retroactively
refund past charges unless expressly agreed to.
-
Payment Disputes: If you believe there is a billing error, you must notify us promptly
at support@registarus.com so we can review and address
the issue.
4. User Accounts & Access
-
Account Types: The Platform supports different user roles, such as organizational
users (e.g., nonprofit staff, leadership), client users, and internal or staff-side users
associated with RegiSTAR US or its service partners. Your access and permissions may be limited
based on your role.
-
Registration Information: When creating an account or being onboarded, we may collect
information such as your name, email address, company name, company website, phone number,

deliver our services.
