Shipping & Delivery Policy
This policy explains how Vallalar Annadhanam Foundation handles donations, contributions and the delivery of any services or support associated with this website.
No Physical Shipping
Donations made through this website do not involve shipment of physical products.
Online Contributions
Contributions may be processed through the available online payment facility.
Community Support
Contributions support the Foundation's charitable and community-oriented activities.
01 Purpose of This Policy
Vallalar Annadhanam Foundation operates this website to provide information about its activities and to facilitate voluntary donations or contributions from individuals and supporters.
This Shipping & Delivery Policy explains how delivery-related matters apply to transactions completed through the website.
02 No Physical Product Shipping
Vallalar Annadhanam Foundation does not use this website as an online store for the sale of physical products. Donations and contributions made through the website do not result in the shipment or delivery of physical goods to the donor.
Therefore, shipping charges, courier charges, delivery charges and physical product delivery timelines generally do not apply to donations made through this website.
03 Nature of Donations and Contributions
Contributions made through the website are voluntary donations or financial support intended for the Foundation's activities and charitable purposes.
A donor should carefully review the amount and information entered before completing an online contribution.
04 Online Payment Processing
Online donations may be processed through a third-party payment gateway, bank or other payment service made available through the website.
Once a donor completes a payment, the transaction may require processing by the relevant payment service provider and banking network.
Vallalar Annadhanam Foundation does not control the internal processing time of banks, card networks, UPI providers or other third-party payment service providers.
05 What Happens After a Successful Donation
Donation Submitted
The donor completes the contribution through the available online payment facility.
Payment Processing
The payment is processed through the applicable payment gateway, bank or payment service provider.
Contribution Received
Once successfully processed, the contribution is received according to the applicable payment and banking process.
06 Delivery of Charitable Activities
Donations may support the Foundation's charitable, community, annadhanam, care and other activities as determined by the Foundation.
Such activities are not considered the shipment or delivery of a commercial product to the donor.
The donor should therefore not expect a physical product, parcel, courier shipment or merchandise in exchange for a donation.
07 No Shipping Charges
Since the Foundation does not ship physical products as part of an online donation transaction, no standard shipping or delivery fee is charged for making a donation through the website.
08 Payment Confirmation
Where applicable, payment confirmation or transaction information may be provided through the payment gateway, bank or communication channel associated with the transaction.
If a donor believes that a successful payment has not been properly recorded, the donor may contact the Foundation with the available transaction details so that the matter can be reviewed.
09 Failed or Delayed Transactions
A payment may sometimes remain pending, fail or be delayed because of banking systems, payment gateways, internet connectivity, technical issues or other circumstances outside the Foundation's direct control.
If an amount has been debited from a donor's account but the donation transaction does not appear to have been completed, the donor should first allow the relevant payment or banking system to process the transaction and may contact the Foundation if assistance is required.
Refund-related matters are handled according to the Foundation's Cancellation & Refund Policy .
10 Third-Party Payment Services
The Foundation may use third-party payment processing services to facilitate online contributions.
Such providers may have their own terms, privacy policies, transaction procedures and processing timelines. Donors should review the applicable information presented during the payment process.
11 Changes to This Policy
Vallalar Annadhanam Foundation may update or modify this Shipping & Delivery Policy when necessary to reflect changes in its website, donation process, payment arrangements or applicable requirements.
Any updated version may be published on this page with the revised information.
