+ Mastodons Vision ist es, die Social Media Landschaft neu zu gestalten. Dazu gehört Inklusivität, Vielfältigkeit + und Nutzerorientierung sowie die Förderung des Dialogs. Unser Mission ist es, zentrale Plattformen durch robuste + Social-Networking-Software zu ersetzen, die von Natur aus dezentralisiert, quelloffen und vollständig interoperabel + sind – mit einem klaren Fokus auf den Schutz der Privatsphäre. +
++ Diese Aufgabe wird zum Teil durch Spenden von Einzelpersonen und Organisationen aus aller Welt ermöglicht. Mit + dieser Richtlinie definiert Mastodon die wesentlichen Voraussetzungen für die Annahme und Anerkennung von Spenden + und Zuwendungen fest, um unsere Mission zu fördern. +
++ Alle finanziellen Mittel, die die Mastodon gGmbH erhält, müssen im Einklang mit unserer Mission und unseren Zielen + stehen. Die Wahrung unserer Unabhängigkeit hat dabei höchste Priorität. +
++ Um dies sicherzustellen, definieren wir im Folgenden die Kriterien für die Ablehnung jeglicher Unterstützung, die + den Werten von Mastodon widerspricht oder unsere Mission, unser Team, unsere Integrität oder die Organisation als + Ganzes gefährden könnte: +
++ Die Mastodon gGmbH nimmt die Einhaltung dieser Spendenrichtlinien sehr ernst. Finanzierungen sind entscheidend, um das + Wachstum der von Mastodon gGmbH zu unterstützen, dürfen jedoch nicht die Werte der Organisation gefährden. Entscheidungen + werden nach Prüfung jeder GeldgeberIn und jeder Finanzierungsquelle getroffen. Wenn eine SpenderIn oder ein Unternehmen + nicht den oben genannten Kriterien entspricht, wird die Spende innerhalb von 30 Tagen über die ursprüngliche Zahlungsmethode, + sofern möglich, zurückerstattet. +
++ Mastodon gGmbH ist nicht in der Lage, potenziellen Spendern steuerliche Beratung zu bieten. SpenderInnen sollten sich + bezüglich der steuerlichen Abzugsfähigkeit von Spenden an einen Steuerberater wenden. Die Organisation wurde 2021 offiziell + als gGmbH (eine deutsche Form der gemeinnützigen GmbH) eingetragen. +
++ Sachspenden dürfen nur vom Geschäftsführer oder einem schriftlich vom Geschäftsführer beauftragten MitarbeiterIn mit der + Befugnis zur Annahme solcher Spenden angenommen werden. +
