Terms & Conditions
Last Updated: April 29, 2021
Welcome to Surefire Bookings! We know as event and service organisers and consumers you want your events and services to run safely and smoothly. This is also our aim. Please read these Terms of Service (or Terms, as further described in Section 1.4) carefully as they contain important information about your legal rights, remedies, and obligations as either a consumer or an organiser. By accessing or using Surefire Bookings 's Services, you agree to comply with and be bound by these Terms, as applicable to you.
1.
Accepting These Terms
1.
What's What: Surefire Bookings is a product of Nexlen
System which has its offerings available (a) online and (b) through mobile
applications, webpages, application programming interfaces, and subdomains
("Applications"). (a), and (b), are collectively referred to as “Nexlen
Systems Products” or “Surefire Bookings Services”. These Terms apply to any Site(s)
on which they are posted; where other terms or agreements are instead posted,
those terms or agreements apply to the extent they conflict with these Terms.
The material, including without limitation information, data, text, editorial
content, design elements, look and feel, formatting, graphics, images,
photographs, videos, music, sounds and other content contained in or delivered
via Surefire Bookings Services or otherwise made available by Surefire Bookings in
connection with the Services is the "Site Content" (or
"Content"). Any material (including the foregoing categories) that
you contribute, provide, post, or make available using the Services is
"Your Content."
2.
Who's Who: When these Terms use the term “Event Organiser”
or “Service Provider” we mean event creators and service providers using Surefire Bookings
to create events and services displayed on the Surefire Bookings Services for consumers
using our Services (a) to consume information about or attend Events ("Consumers"),
or (b) to consume information about Services ("Consumers"), or (c)
for any other reason. Event Organisers, Service Providers, Consumers and third
parties using NinTickets are all referred to in these Terms collectively as “Users”,
“You” or “Your”. When these Terms use the term “Nexlen Systems”, “we”, “us” or “our”
that refers to Nexlen Systems, and its respective officers, directors, agents,
partners, and employees.
3.
What Else: If you are an Organiser offering
events and services with paid tickets, Surefire Bookings' Merchant Agreement and
Organiser Refund Policy Requirements are also applicable to you. If you are an Event
Organiser or Service Provider or Consumer, Surefire Bookings' Community Guidelines
are applicable to you. (Some, but not all, of the terms in those agreements are
duplicated in these Terms of Service). Please be on the lookout for additional
terms and conditions displayed on our website with certain Services that you
may use from time to time as those will also be applicable to you. And, by
agreeing to these Terms of Service, you acknowledge you have read the Privacy
Policy and Cookie Statement applicable to all Users. We may sometimes provide
you with services that are not described in these Terms of Service, or
customised services: unless we would have entered a separate, signed agreement
that expressly supersedes these Terms of Service, these Terms of Service will
apply to those services as well.
4. What the "Terms of Service" Means: These Terms of Service and the other documents referenced in them (including in Section 1.3 above) comprise Surefire Bookings' "Terms." These Terms are a legally binding agreement between you and Nexen Systems governing your access to and use of the Services and setting out your rights and responsibilities when you use Surefire Bookings Services. By using any of Surefire Bookings Services (including browsing the Site), you are agreeing to these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, please do not use, access the Services provided by Surefire Bookings or browse the site. If you will be using the Services on behalf of an entity (such as on behalf of your employer), you agree to these Terms on behalf of that entity and its affiliates and you represent that you have the authority to do so. In such case, "you" and "your" will refer to that entity as well as yourself.
2.
Nexlen Systems’ Services and Role Regarding
Surefire Bookings
1.
What We Do: Nexlen Systems provide a simple and
quick means on Surefire Bookings Services for Event Organisers and Service Providers
to create profiles using a list of account types, and other webpages related to
their events and services, promote those pages, events and services to visitors
or browsers on the platform or elsewhere online, manage online or onsite
ticketing and registration, solicit donations, and sell or reserve merchandise related
to those events and services to Consumers or other Users.
2. How We Fit In: Nexlen systems is not the creator, organiser or owner of the events listed on Surefire Bookings Services. Rather, the service allows Event Organisers and Service Providers to manage ticketing and registration and promote their events and services. The Event Organiser or Service Provider is solely responsible for ensuring that any page displaying an event or service on Surefire Bookings (and the event or service itself) meet all applicable local, state, provincial, national, and other laws, rules and regulations, and that the goods and services described on the event page are delivered as described and in an accurate satisfactory manner. The Event Organiser/Service Provider of a paid event or service agrees to use Stripe as the payment processing method for its event and service as more fully described in the Surefire Bookings Merchant Agreement. Consumers must also agree to using Stripe as a payment method. If the Organiser selects an offline payment method, then Nexlen systems does not process the transaction but Customer is informed that a form of payment would be required at the point of entry for the event or before the start or at the end of the service which would be stated on the ticket. Nexlen System also acts as the Organiser's limited agent solely for the purpose of using our Stripe payment Gateway integration to collect payments made by Consumers on Surefire Bookings passing such payments to the Organiser with limited information about each payment. This information is similar to those accessible by the Consumer.
3.
Privacy and Consumer Information
1.
We know your personal information is important
to you and it is important to us too. Information provided on NinTickets by
Users or collected by Nexlen Systems through Surefire Bookings Services, is governed
by our Privacy Policy.
2. If you are an Event Organiser or Service Provider, you represent, warrant and agree that (a) you will at all times comply with all applicable local, state, provincial, national and other laws, rules and regulations with respect to information you collect from (or receive about) consumers, and (b) you will at all times comply with any applicable policies posted on Surefire Bookings Services with respect to information you collect from (or receive about) consumers.
4. Term;
Termination
1.
These Terms apply to you as soon as you access
the Surefire Bookings Services by any means and continue in effect until they are
terminated. There may come a time where either you or Nexlen Systems decides
it's best to part ways as described in Sections 4.2 or 4.3 below. When that
happens, these Terms will generally no longer apply. However, as described in
Section 4.4, certain provisions will always remain applicable to both you and Nexlen
Systems.
2.
Nexlen Systems may terminate your right to use
the Surefire Bookings Services at any time (a) if you violate or breach these Terms;
(b) if you misuse or abuse Surefire Bookings System Services, or use Surefire Bookings Services
in a way not intended or permitted by Nexlen Systems; or (c) if allowing you to
access and use Surefire Bookings Services would violate any applicable local, state,
provincial, national and other laws, rules and regulations or would expose Nexlen
Systems to legal liability. Nexlen Systems may choose to stop offering Surefire Bookings
Services, or any particular portion of the Service, or modify or replace any
aspect of the Service, at any time. We will use reasonable efforts to provide
you with notice of our termination of your access to Surefire Bookings Services,
where, in Nexlen Systems’ sole discretion, failure to do so would materially
prejudice you. You agree that Nexlen Systems will not be liable to you or any
third-party because of its termination of your right to use or otherwise access
Surefire Bookings Services.
3.
Except to the extent you have agreed otherwise
in a separate written agreement between you and Nexlen systems, you may
terminate your access to Surefire Bookings Services and the general applicability of
Terms by deleting your account. If you are a Consumer using Surefire Bookings Services
without a registered account, your only option for these Terms to no longer
apply is to stop accessing Surefire Bookings Services indefinitely. So long as you continue
to access the Services, even without an account, these Terms remain in effect.
If there is a separate agreement between you and Nexlen Systems governing your
use of Surefire Bookings Services and that agreement terminates or expires, these
Terms (as unmodified by such agreement) will govern your use of Surefire Bookings Services
after such termination or expiration.
4. All provisions of these Terms that by their nature should survive termination of these Terms will survive (including, without limitation, all limitations on liability, releases, indemnification obligations, disclaimers of warranties, agreements to arbitrate, choices of law and judicial forum and intellectual property protections and licences).
5.
Export Controls and Restricted Countries
1.
As a company based in the UK, Nexlen Systems
complies with certain export controls and economic sanctions laws. All Users,
regardless of your or the event or service’s location should familiarize
yourself with these restrictions. In accepting these Terms you represent and
warrant that: (a) you are not located in, and you are not a national or
resident of, any country to which the United Kingdom, European Union has
embargoed goods and/or services of the same type as Surefire Bookings Services,
including without limitation, Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria or the Crimea
region of Ukraine; and (b) you are not a person or entity, or owned by, under
the control of, or affiliated with, a person or entity (i) the Consolidated
List of Targets published by the U.K. HM Treasury; the Consolidated List
published by the A.U. Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade; (ii) that is
subject to sanctions in any other country; or (iii) that is engaged in the
design, development or production of nuclear, biological or chemical weapons,
missiles or unmanned aerial vehicles.
6. Release
and Indemnification
This is where
you agree to cover Nexlen Systems if you use Surefire Bookings Services in a way that
causes Nexlen systems to be the subject of a legal matter, or to face other
claims or expenses, or as otherwise set forth herein, to the extent permitted
by applicable laws.
1.
Release: You hereby agree to release Nexlen
systems from all damages (whether direct, indirect, incidental, consequential,
or otherwise), losses, liabilities, costs and expenses of every kind and
nature, known and unknown, arising out of a dispute between you and a third
party (including other Users) in connection with Surefire Bookings Services or any
event or service listed on Surefire Bookings Services. In addition, you waive any applicable
law or statute, which says, in substance: “A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO
CLAIMS WHICH THE RELEASING PARTY DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS FAVOR
AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM MUST HAVE
MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS SETTLEMENT WITH THE RELEASED PARTY”.
2. Indemnification: You agree to defend, indemnify and hold Nexlen Systems and each of its and their respective officers, directors, agents, co-branders, licensors, payment processing partners, other partners and employees, harmless from any and all damage (whether direct, indirect, incidental, consequential or otherwise), loss, liability, cost and expense (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' and accounting fees) resulting from any claim, demand, suit, proceeding (whether before an arbitrator, court, mediator or otherwise) or investigation made by any third party (each a "Claim") relating to or arising out of: (a) your breach of these Terms (including any terms or agreements or policies incorporated into these Terms); (b) your use of Surefire Bookings Services in violation of these Terms or other policies we post or make available; (c) your breach of any applicable local, state, provincial, national or other law, rule or regulation or the rights of any third party; (d) Nexlen Systems collection and remission of taxes; and (e) if you are an Event Organiser or Service Provider, your events (including where Nexlen Systems has provided Services with respect to those events), provided that in the case of (e) this indemnification will not apply to the extent that the Claim arises out of Nexlen Systems’ gross negligence or wilful misconduct. Nexlen Systems will provide notice to you of any such Claim, provided that the failure or delay by Nexlen Systems in providing such notice will not limit your obligations hereunder except to the extent you are materially prejudiced by such failure. Also, in certain circumstances, Nexlen Systems may choose to handle the Claim ourselves, in which case you agree to cooperate with Nexlen systems in any way we request.
7. Disclaimer
of Warranties and Assumption of Risks by You
We strive to
provide Services in the way you need them, but there are some things it is
important for you to understand that we cannot promise.
1.
To the extent permitted by applicable laws, Surefire Bookings
Services are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. Nexlen Systems
expressly disclaims all warranties of any kind, express or implied, including,
but not limited to, implied warranties of merchantability, title,
non-infringement and fitness for a particular purpose. For example, Nexlen
Systems makes no warranty that (a) Surefire Bookings Services (or any portion of the
Services) will meet your requirements or expectations; (b) Surefire Bookings Services
will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free; or (c) the results that
may be obtained from the use of Surefire Bookings Services will be accurate or
reliable.
2.
You acknowledge that Nexlen Systems has no
control over and does not guarantee the quality, safety, accuracy or legality
of any event or service or Content associated with an event or service, the
truth or accuracy of any information provided by Users (including the
Consumer's personal information shared with Event Organisers or Service
Providers in connection with events or services) or the ability of any User to
perform or actually complete a transaction. Nexlen Systems has no responsibility
to you for, and hereby disclaims all liability arising from, the acts or
omissions of any third parties that Nexlen Systems requires to provide Surefire Bookings
Services, that an Event Organiser or Service Provider chooses to assist with an
event or service, or that you choose to contract with when using Surefire Bookings Services.
3.
You understand and agree that some events and
services may carry inherent risk, and by participating in those events and
services, you choose to assume those risks voluntarily. For example, some
events or services may carry risk of illness, bodily injury, disability, or
death, and you freely and wilfully assume those risks by choosing to
participate in those events and services.
4. The foregoing disclaimers apply to the maximum extent permitted by law. You may have other statutory rights. However, the duration of statutorily required warranties, if any, will be limited to the maximum extent permitted by law.
8. Limitation
of Liability
1.
To the extent permitted by applicable laws, or
as otherwise set forth herein, Nexlen Systems and any person or entity
associated with Nexlen Systems’ provision of Surefire Bookings Services (e.g., an
affiliate, vendor, strategic partner or employee) (“Associated Parties”), will
not be liable to you or any third party, for: (a) any indirect, incidental,
special, consequential, punitive or exemplary damages, including, but not
limited to, damages for loss of profits, goodwill, use, data, opportunity
costs, intangible losses, or the cost of substitute services (even if Nexlen
Systems has been advised of the possibility of such damages); or (b) Your
Content. In addition, other than the obligation of Nexlen Systems to pay out
Event Registration Fees in certain circumstances to certain organisers under
the Surefire Bookings Services Merchant Agreement, and only in accordance with the terms
therein, the maximum aggregate liability of Nexlen Systems or Associated
Parties is limited to the following:
i)
for Event Organisers or Service Providers with
paid tickets, and subject to the terms of the Surefire Bookings Services Merchant
Agreement, the fees (net of Nexlen Systems Payment Processing Fees) that you
paid us in the three (3) month period immediately preceding the circumstances
giving rise to your claim; and
ii) for
Event Organisers or Service Providers with free tickets only, Consumers or
other Users, (1) the total amount of all tickets or registrations that you
purchased or made through Surefire Bookings Services in the three (3) month period
immediately preceding the circumstances giving rise to your claim; or (2) if
you made no such purchases, one hundred GBP Pounds (GBP £100).
2. Nothing in these Terms is intended to exclude or limit any condition, warranty, right or liability which may not be lawfully excluded or limited. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties or conditions or the limitation or exclusion of liability for loss or damage caused by wilful acts, negligence, breach of contract or breach of implied terms, or incidental or consequential damages. Accordingly, only those liability and other limitations which are lawful in your jurisdiction (if any) will apply to you and our liability is limited to the maximum extent permitted by law.
9. IMPORTANT:
Binding Arbitration and Class Action Waiver Provisions
PLEASE
READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY AS IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS. ANY DISPUTE OR CLAIM
UNDER THESE TERMS OR WITH RESPECT TO THE SERVICES WILL BE SETTLED BY BINDING
ARBITRATION OR IN SMALL CLAIMS COURT (TO THE EXTENT THE CLAIM QUALIFIES) AND
WILL TAKE PLACE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS ONLY; YOU AGREE THAT CLASS, CONSOLIDATED
OR REPRESENTATIVE ARBITRATIONS AND CIVIL ACTIONS ARE NOT PERMITTED AND ANY
RIGHTS TO BRING SUCH ACTIONS ARE WAIVED BY EACH PARTY.
The
parties understand that, absent this mandatory provision, they would have the
right to sue in court and have a jury trial. They further understand that, in
some instances, the costs of arbitration could exceed the costs of litigation
and the right to discovery may be more limited in arbitration than in court.
1. Contact
Us First: If you have a question or concern about Surefire Bookings Services, please
contact us first. Our customer support team will try to answer your question or
resolve your concern.
2. Agreement
to Arbitrate: In the unlikely event that our customer support team is unable to
resolve your concerns, the parties (you and we) each hereby agree to resolve any
and all disputes or claims under these Terms, with respect to Surefire Bookings Services,
or related to our relationship through binding arbitration or in small claims
court (to the extent the claim qualifies) instead of in courts of general
jurisdiction, and only on an individual basis. In no event may either we or you
seek to resolve a dispute with the other as part of any purported class,
consolidated or representative proceeding. Binding arbitration is subject to
very limited review. Only the arbitrator appointed pursuant to this Section,
and not any federal, state or local court will have the authority to resolve
any dispute or claim relating to this Section including, without limitation,
regarding the scope, enforceability and arbitrability of these Terms. This arbitration
provision will survive termination of these Terms. These Terms evidence a transaction
in interstate commerce and the interpretation and enforcement of this Section 9
is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, notwithstanding the choice of law set
forth in Section 9.8 below.
3. Scope
of Agreement: This agreement to arbitrate is intended to be broadly interpreted
as to legal disputes between you and us. It includes, but is not limited to:
(i) all claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of the relationship
between us, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation
or any other legal theory; (ii) all claims that arose before this or any prior
agreement (including, but not limited to, claims relating to advertising); and
(iii) all claims that may arise after termination of these Terms and/or your
use of the Services.
4. Exceptions:
Notwithstanding this Agreement to arbitrate, either party may (i) bring an
action on an individual basis in small claims court (to the extent the
applicable claim qualifies); or (ii) bring enforcement actions, validity
determinations or claims arising from or relating to theft, piracy or
unauthorised use of intellectual property in state or federal court in the U.S.
Patent or Trademark Office to protect its Intellectual Property Rights
("Intellectual Property Rights" means patents, copyrights, moral
rights, trademarks, and trade secrets, but not privacy or publicity rights). In
addition, the portion of any dispute or complaint relating to our participation
in the US-EU or US-Swiss Privacy Shield Frameworks is subject to the Dispute
Resolution section of our Privacy Policy before being subject to this Section.
5. No
Class Actions: YOU AND NEXLEN SYSTEMS AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST
THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR
CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, CONSOLIDATED OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING.
THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON'S CLAIMS, MAY NOT
PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF CLASS, CONSOLIDATED OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING AND
MAY ONLY PROVIDE RELIEF IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND
ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF WARRANTED BY THAT PARTY'S
INDIVIDUAL CLAIM.
6. Notice
of Dispute: A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send to the
other a written Notice of Dispute ("Notice"). The Notice to Nexlen
Systems must be addressed to the following address ("Notice Address")
and must be sent by certified mail: Nexlen Systems, Attn: Legal Department, Northampton.
Notice to you will be addressed to a mailing, home or payment address currently
on record with Nexlen Systems and must be sent by certified mail. If Nexlen
systems has no records of such physical address, such notice may be delivered
to your Surefire Bookings Services account email address. The Notice must (i)
describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (ii) set forth the
specific relief sought. If Nexlen Systems and you do not reach an agreement to
resolve the claim within sixty (60) calendar days after the Notice is received,
you or Nexlen Systems may commence an arbitration proceeding.
7. Arbitration
Proceedings: The arbitration will be governed by the Commercial Arbitration Rules,
or, if the actions giving rise to the dispute or claim relate to your personal
or household use of Surefire Bookings Services (rather than business use), the
Consumer Arbitration Rules (in each case, the “LCIA Rules”) of the Chartered
Institute of Arbitrators (“LCIA”), as modified by this Section 9, and will be
administered by the LCIA and settled by a single arbitrator. All issues in
dispute between the parties are for the arbitrator to decide, including, but
not limited to, issues relating to the scope, enforceability, and arbitrability
of this Section 9.
8. Location
of Arbitration Proceedings: If you are a Consumer, any arbitration hearings
will take place (at your option) either in the town of your residence or by
phone, except that is you are a Consumer whose residence is outside of the
United Kingdom, the hearing will take place by phone or videoconference, at
your option and as permitted by the LCIA Rules. If you are a business (i.e.,
your use of the Surefire Bookings Services was for commercial use), then unless Nexlen
Systems and you agree otherwise, any arbitration hearings will take place in a
reasonably convenient location in the United Kingdom for both parties with due
consideration of their ability to travel and other pertinent circumstances. If
the parties are unable to agree on a location, LCIA will determine the
location. If your claim is for ten thousand pounds (£10,000) or less, we agree that
you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of
documents submitted to the arbitrator, through a telephonic hearing, or by an
in-person hearing as established by the LCIA Rules. If your claim exceeds ten
thousand pounds (£10,000), the right to a hearing will be determined by the LCIA
Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the
arbitrator will issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the
essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based. All decisions
by the arbitrator will be final and binding and judgment on the award rendered
may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.
9. Costs
of Arbitration; Legal Fees:
i) Payment
of Costs and Expenses. Payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator
costs and expenses imposed by LCIA will be governed by the LCIA rules, provided
that if you are initiating an arbitration against Nexlen Systems and the value
of the relief sought is ten thousand pounds (£10,000) or less, then Nexlen
systems will advance all filing, administrative and arbitration costs and
expenses imposed by LCIA (subject to reimbursement as set forth below).
Further, if the circumstances in the preceding sentence apply and your claim
arises from your use of Surefire Bookings Services as a Consumer, but the value of
relief sought is more than ten thousand pounds (£10,000) and you demonstrate to
the arbitrator that such costs and expenses would be more expensive than a
court proceeding, then Nexlen Systems will pay the amount of any such costs and
expenses. In the event that the arbitrator determines that all of the claims
you assert in arbitration are frivolous according to Federal Rule of Civil
Procedure 11, you agree to reimburse Nexlen Systems for all such cost and
expenses that Nexlen Systems paid and that you would have been obligated to pay
under the LCIA rules.
ii) Payment
of Legal Fees. Just as in any court proceeding, each party will initially bear
its own attorneys' fees and expenses in connection with any arbitration. Should
either party be determined to have substantially prevailed in the arbitration,
then upon such party's request, the arbitrator will award such prevailing party
the reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses that it incurred in connection with
the arbitration, provided that to the extent that the dispute or claim relate
to your personal or household use of Surefire Bookings Services (rather than business
use) Nexlen Systems will not seek to recover its attorneys' fees and expenses
in an arbitration initiated by you. The arbitrator may make rulings and resolve
disputes as to the reimbursement of attorneys' fees and expenses upon request
from either party made within fourteen (14) days of the arbitrator's ruling on
the merits.
10. Future
Changes: Notwithstanding any provision in these Terms to the contrary, you and Nexlen
Systems agree that if Nexlen Systems makes any future change to this
arbitration provision (other than a change to the Notice Address) Nexlen Systems
will provide you with notice of such change and you may reject any such change
by sending us written notice within thirty (30) calendar days of the change to
the Notice Address provided above. By rejecting any future change, you are
agreeing that you will arbitrate any dispute between us in accordance with the
language of this provision as unmodified by such rejected change.
11. Special
Severability: In the event that any provisions of this Section 9 are found to
be invalid or unenforceable for any dispute or claim, then, the entirety of this
Section 9 will be null and void with respect to such dispute or claim and
Section 23 will apply in lieu of this Section 9.
i) Opt Out: You have the right to opt out and not be bound by the arbitration or class action waiver provisions set forth above by sending (from the email address we associate with you as a User) written notice of your decision to opt-out to legal address below with the subject line, "ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER OPT-OUT." The notice must be sent within thirty (30) days of your first use of the Services or your agreement to these Terms (whichever is later); otherwise, you will be bound to arbitrate disputes in accordance with the terms of those paragraphs. Note that if you opt out of these arbitration provisions, Nexlen Systems also will not be bound by them.
10. Licence

If you are a copyright owner or an agent of a copyright owner and you believe that any content on the Sites infringes your copyrights, you may submit a notice pursuant to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act ("DMCA") by following the directions we provided in Nexlen Systems Trademark and Copyright Policy.
13. Scraping
or Commercial Use of Site Content is Prohibited
The Site Content is not intended for your commercial use. You have no right to use, and agree not to use, any Site Content for your own commercial purposes. You have no right to, and agree not to scrape, crawl, or employ any automated means to extract data from the Site(s).
14. Fees
and Refunds
1.
Fees That We Charge: Creating an account,
listing an event or service and accessing the Services are free. However, we
charge fees when you sell or buy paid tickets or registrations. These fees may
vary based on individual agreements between Nexlen Systems and certain Event Organisers
and Service Providers. Event Organisers and Service Providers ultimately determine
whether these fees will be passed along to Consumers and shown as “Fees” on the
applicable event page or absorbed into the ticket or registration price and
paid by the Event Organisers and Service Providers out of ticket and
registration gross proceeds. The fees charged to Consumers may include certain
other charges, including without limitation, facility fees, royalties, taxes, processing
fees and fulfilment fees. Therefore, the fees paid by Consumers for an event
are not necessarily the same as those charged by Nexlen Systems to the
applicable Event Organisers and Service Providers or the standard fees
described on Surefire Bookings Services to Event Organisers or Service Providers. In
addition, certain fees are meant, on average, to defray certain costs incurred
by Nexlen Systems, but may in some cases include an element of profit and in
some cases include an element of loss. Nexlen Systems does not control (and
thus cannot disclose) fees levied by your bank and/or credit card company,
including fees for purchasing tickets and registrations in foreign currencies
or from foreign persons. Be sure to check with your bank or credit card company
prior to engaging in a transaction to understand all applicable fees, credit
card surcharges and currency conversion rates.
2.
Ticket Transfers: If you wish to transfer
tickets to an event or service you have purchased on Surefire Bookings, in some
instances Nexlen Systems may be able to accommodate this for you. In all other
instances, please contact the Event Organiser or Service provider to arrange
for ticket transfer. If you are unable to reach the Event Organiser or Service
Provider, or the Event Organiser or Service Provider is unable to arrange a
ticket transfer, please contact us.
3.
Refunds: Because all transactions are between an
Event Organiser or Service Provider and its respective attendees, Nexlen
Systems asks that Consumers with tickets within the refund window period as
stated on their tickets could contact Ninitickets Service for a refund. Should
this refund window period have expired, Customers should then contact the Event
Organiser or Service Provider for refunds.
(a) If
you are a Consumer, you acknowledge that should you receive a refund for your
ticket, you will discard any ticket that we or any Event Organiser or Service
Provider has delivered and will not use it (or any copy of it) to attend the
event or receive the service. Violation of the foregoing constitutes fraud. You
acknowledge that the applicable procedure to check the validity of the ticket
must always be followed. Nexlen systems will not be held liable under any
circumstances for any costs arisen from non-compliance by Event Organisers or
Service Providers with applicable procedures that must be implemented by Event Organisers
or Service Providers to check validity of tickets. Eventbrite will not be held
liable under any circumstances for costs and/or damage associated with tickets
arisen from situations with fraud and/or for damage associated with the
purchase of the ticket through non-official means, such as third parties.
(b) If you are an Event Organiser or Service Provider, you acknowledge that the applicable procedure to check the validity of the ticket must always be followed. Nexlen Systems will not be held liable under any circumstances for any costs arisen from non-compliance by Event Organisers or Service Providers with applicable procedures that must be implemented by Event Organisers or Service Providers to check validity of tickets. Nexlen systems will not be held liable under any circumstances for costs and/or damage associated with tickets arisen from situations with fraud and/or for damage associated with the purchase of the ticket through non-official means, such as third parties.
