giving policy
20% Pledge
Buffle Audio plans to donate 20% of annual net profits from eligible product sales to registered animal welfare charities, with a focus on French dog and cat shelters, field rescue groups, and transparent animal protection organizations.
calculation
Emotional mission, mathematical promise
Purchases are software purchases. Donations are made by Buffle Audio, not by customers, and customer purchases are not tax-deductible charitable contributions.
Calculated after refunds, taxes, payment processing fees, platform fees, chargebacks, and ordinary operating expenses.
20% of annual net profits planned for year-end donation to registered animal welfare charities.
recipient strategy
How we want the pledge to help
The first donation cycle should avoid vague cause marketing. The goal is to publish a short, verifiable annual list showing where the money went, why those groups were selected, and which proof was checked before payment.
Small and mid-sized French shelters helping dogs, cats, senior animals, difficult adoptions, and emergency intakes.
Established French foundations with refuges, legal action, veterinary care, sterilization, or shelter-support programs.
Emergency or solidarity work: food, veterinary support, and help for animals whose humans are in precarious situations.
Rapid-response or end-of-cycle reserve for verified shelter emergencies, veterinary campaigns, or final donation balancing.
recipient strategy
French animal-welfare groups we intend to verify
Buffle Audio will not name a specific association, foundation, refuge, logo, quote, or partner relationship in public campaign copy until its legal status, donation path, current needs, and written naming permission are confirmed.
Small local dog and cat refuges
Priority for direct shelter impact: food, veterinary bills, emergency intake, senior animals, difficult adoptions, and practical improvements to daily care.
Established French animal-protection foundations
Secondary priority for organizations with refuge operations, legal action, sterilization, veterinary programs, rescue operations, or shelter-support infrastructure.
Emergency and solidarity work
Support for food, veterinary access, and field work that helps animals whose humans are in precarious situations stay together safely.
Manual recipient verification
Each named recipient must pass legal identity, official donation-channel, receipt, transparency, current-need, and mission-fit checks before receiving public mention.
Public naming only after permission
Annual giving updates can list recipient names only after donation proof exists and the organization approves the exact public wording.
