The Developer/Backer Dynamic

GD is a funding platform for firearm-related projects. When someone (a developer), starts a project on the GD site, they are requesting for backers to enter a contract with them. If you choose to back a project then you are accepting the developer’s offer as presented in said developers’ project. Gun Dynamics is not a part of this contract.

The contract is a direct legal agreement between developers and their backers. Here are the terms that govern that direct legal agreement:

Once a project is funded, the developer must bring the project to completion including the fulfillment of each reward. Once a developer has done so, they’ve satisfied their obligation to their backers.

Throughout the process, developers have an obligation to their backers to deliver great effort, truthful communication, and a commitment to bringing the project to life. At the same time, backers must understand that they’re helping to create a new product — not ordering a product that already exists. There may be modifications or delays, and there’s a possibility that something could happen that inhibits the creator from being able to finish the project as promised.

If a developer is unable to complete their project and satisfy orders, they’ve failed to live up to the commitments of this agreement. To rectify this, the developer must make an equitable effort to find a way of bringing the project to the best possible close for backers. A developer in this situation has only resolved the situation and met their obligations to backers if:

The developer submits a post that conveys what work has been done, how the money was used, and what is preventing them from completing the project as scheduled.

The developer works hard to complete the project in a timeframe that’s communicated to backers.

The developer can demonstrate that the funds were used appropriately and that they made every sensible effort to complete the project as promised.

The developer has been honest and has made no factual misrepresentations in their posts to backers.

The developer offers to return the remaining funds to the backers that have not received their order or else present to the backers how those funds can be spent on completing the project in some other way.  

The developer is solely responsible for accomplishing the goals made in their project. If the developers are unable to fulfill the terms of this agreement, they may be subject to legal action by backers.

How Funding Works

These are the terms that apply when you’re backing a project:

Product Ready Campaign

You will be charged at the time of your order. You’ll provide your payment information when you make your purchase. The exact amount you spent is the amount Gun Dynamics will collect.

Tooling Campaign

For a campaign that has a finished product and is looking to raise funds for tooling and first run production, your card will not be charged until the minimum funding goal has been achieved. Once the first tier goal has been reached your order will be processed.

Product Development Campaign

For a campaign that has a working prototype and is looking to raise funds for tooling and first run production, your card will not be charged until the minimum funding goal has been achieved. Once the first tier goal has been reached your order will be processed.

You can change or cancel your order at any time before the project’s funding deadline. Once the project has been funded, you can only cancel or change your pledge by making special arrangements directly with the developer.

The Estimated Delivery Date is the developer’s estimate of delivery. The date listed in the campaign is the developer’s estimate of when the backer will receive their purchase — it is not a guaranteed delivery date. The schedule may be updated as the developer works on the project. We ask developers to set a delivery date that is realistic in order to facilitate the scheduled delivery date and to update the backers about any changes.

The Developer may need to send you information about your purchase. The developer may need information from you to deliver items including a mailing address or t-shirt size. That request could come after the campaign has concluded. To receive your reward you’ll need to provide the information in a timely fashion.

Gun Dynamics doesn’t offer refunds. The Developer is responsible for finishing their project. Gun Dynamics does not hold funds on a Developers behalf and cannot guarantee the a Developers work.

The terms for creating a project:

Developers can refund purchases if you want. After your project has been funded, it is up to the backer to refund or cancel a customer’s order.  If you do, you have no further obligation to that specific backer, and no agreement exists between you.

Gun Dynamics and our payment partners will charge our fees before transferring the proceeds of a successful campaign to the Developer.

There are circumstances where pledges can’t be processed - for instance, when a Backer’s credit card expires before the campaign ends and they didn’t update the card information. Gun Dynamics can’t guarantee that the final amount of funding you receive will be equal to the full amount pledged, (minus fees).

Gun Dynamics will assist in resolving some specific payment-card disputes. If a purchaser of your project disputes the charge with their card issuer, GD will represent the charge to settle said dispute with the card issuer. The Developer will be notified that a dispute has been filed and will be able to offer evidence to help GD resolve it in your favor. If the cardholder’s dispute is found valid, you authorize us to charge the credit card number you provided when you started your project for the amount of the chargeback.

You will not be able to immediately collect your funding. There may be a delay between the end of a successful campaign and your access to the funds.

Gun Dynamics is not responsible for:

Gun Dynamics does not run projects and GD does not arbitrate disputes between users. When you use the Services, you release Gun Dynamics from claims, damages and demands of every kind — known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, disclosed or undisclosed — arising out of, or in any way related to, such disputes and the Services.

Our Fees

Fees are only charged on successfully funded projects. We charge 10% in addition to any fees from our payment partners. If you create a successful project, we and our payment partners collect fees. If our fees ever change, we’ll announce that on our GDW. Some funds pledged by backers are collected by payment providers. Our payment provider partners are their own companies and Gun Dynamics isn’t responsible for their performance. The Developer is also responsible for paying any additional fees or taxes associated with your use of Gun Dynamics.

Gun Dynamics partners with other companies for payment processing. When you create a project, you’re also agreeing to the payment processor’s terms of service.
