The following policy sets forth the terms and conditions upon which you may use the Services (the “Terms of Use”). If you use the Services in any way, these Terms of Use apply to you. By accepting the Terms of Service and using the Services in any manner, you agree to these Terms of Use without modification and enter into a binding contract with LIVE IT Group.

2. Your Use Of The Services.
2.1. The Services.
LIVE IT Group hereby grants you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable (except to sub-Users registered via the Services), revocable (in accordance with Section 4 of the Terms of Service), limited right to access and use the Services solely for the purposes of
(a) browsing the Services and searching for, viewing, registering for or purchasing tickets or making donations to an event that is registered on the Services; and/or
(b) if you are an Organiser, creating event registration and other webpages with respect to, and promoting, managing, tracking, and collecting sales proceeds for, an event, in each case (i) in compliance with these Terms of Use and the Terms of Service; and (ii) to the extent permitted under all applicable local, state, provincial, national and other laws, rules and regulations.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, you shall not, and shall not permit anyone else to, directly or indirectly (A) copy, modify, reproduce, translate, localize, port or otherwise create derivatives of any part of the Services; (B) reverse engineer, disassemble, decompile or otherwise attempt to discover the source code or structure, sequence and organization of all or any part of the Services (except that this restriction shall not apply to the limited extent restrictions on reverse engineering are prohibited by applicable local, state, provincial, national or other law, rule or regulation); (C) rent, lease, resell, distribute, use the Services for timesharing, service bureau or other commercial purposes not contemplated by this paragraph or otherwise exploit the Services in any unauthorized or unintended manner; (D) remove or alter any proprietary notices or labels on or in the Services; or (E) engage in any activity that interferes with or disrupts the Services. Any rights not expressly granted in this paragraph are reserved.
2.2. Web Applications.
You may access and use the Services through our Web Applications. For clarity, any access to or use of the Services via the Web Applications and the Web Applications themselves shall be deemed to be part of the Services and subject to the Terms of Service and these Terms of Use. This right to access and use the Web Applications may be revoked in accordance with Section 4 of the Terms of Service and LIVE IT Group may discontinue or modify the Web Applications as set forth in Section 11 below.
3. LIVE IT Group's Role.
3.1. Listing Service and Limited Agent.
LIVE IT Group is not the organiser or owner of the events listed for sale or registration on the Services. LIVE IT Group provides the Services, which allow Organisers to list and promote their events, but all sales are made by the respective Organiser listed on the applicable event page. In the event that an Organiser has elected to use LIVE IT Group’s Payment Processing Service, LIVE IT Group also acts as the Organiser’s limited agent solely for the purpose of using its third party payment providers to collect payments made by Attendees on the Services with respect to an event and passing such payments through to the applicable Organiser. It is the Organiser’s sole obligation to ensure that any event page posting on the Services and the nature and conduct of the underlying event meet all applicable local, state, provincial, national and other laws, rules and regulations, and that the goods and services described in any event page posting are actually delivered in a satisfactory manner.
3.2. Selection of Payment Processing Method.
As an Organiser, you may select your preferred payment processing method for your event, provided, that once you sell the first ticket to an event you may not change the payment processing method for that event. As an Attendee, you will be using whatever payment processing method the Organiser of the applicable event has selected. If the Organiser has selected a payment processing method that uses a third party to process the payment, then neither LIVE IT Group or any of its third party payment processing partners processes the transaction but may transmit your payment details to the Organiser’s designated payment provider. If the Organiser has elected to use LIVE IT Group’s Payment Processing Service, LIVE IT Group will use third party payment processing partners to process the transaction as Organiser’s limited payment agent.
3.3. Fees.
Creating an account, listing an event and accessing the Services is free. We charge our fees only when you sell or buy paid tickets or registrations. All descriptions of standard fees on the Services represent the standard fees that LIVE IT Group charges to Organisers. These fees may vary based on individual agreements between LIVE IT Group and certain Organisers. Organisers ultimately choose if these fees will be passed along to Attendees and shown as “Fees” on the applicable event page or absorbed into the ticket or registration price and paid by the Organiser out of ticket and registration gross proceeds. The fees charged to Attendees may include certain other charges, including without limitation, facility fees, royalties, taxes, processing fees, event protection and fulfillment fees. Therefore, the fees paid by Attendees for an event are not necessarily the same as those charged by LIVE IT Group to the applicable Organiser or the standard fees described on the Services to Organisers. LIVE IT Group 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.
3.4. Refunds.
Because all transactions are between an Organiser and its respective Attendees, LIVE IT Group asks that all Attendees contact the applicable Organiser of their event with any refund requests. Organisers agree to post and maintain a refund policy on each event page and that refund policy will govern, provided that the refund policy must be consistent with LIVE IT Group’s Attendee Refund Policy Requirements. In the event that an Organiser has not responded to a refund request within two (2) business days or there is a dispute between an Organiser and an Attendee that cannot be resolved, either party may contact LIVE IT Group. LIVE IT Group may, in its discretion, attempt to mediate such dispute, however, LIVE IT Group will have no liability for (a) an Organiser’s failure to give refunds; (b) LIVE IT Group’s failure to mediate a dispute; or (c) LIVE IT Group’s decision if it does mediate the dispute.
4. Email.
4.1. Email Tools.
LIVE IT Group may make available to you features and tools that allow you to contact other users of the Services or third parties via email (the “Email Tools”). In the event that you use these Email Tools, you represent, warrant and agree that:
4.1.1. you have all right and authority necessary to send emails to the addresses on your recipient list, including without limitation, that such addresses were gathered on an opt-in basis in any jurisdiction where that is required by applicable local, state, provincial, national or other law, rule or regulation, and your emailing of such addresses complies with the privacy policy under which the recipient emails were gathered and which was disclosed to recipients at the time of gathering;
4.1.2. your use of the Email Tools is in compliance with all applicable local, state, provincial, national and other laws, rules and regulations, including those relating to spam and email;
4.1.3. your use of the Email Tools will be solely to advertise, promote and/or manage a bona fide event that you have listed on the Services;
4.1.4. your use of the Email Tools and the content of your emails complies with Section 7.1 of these Terms of Use;
4.1.5. you will not use false or misleading headers or deceptive subject lines in emails sent using the Email Tools;
4.1.6. you will identify the email message as an advertisement or commercial in nature;
4.1.7. you will not hide, disable, remove, or attempt to hide, disable or remove the unsubscribe link that LIVE IT Group includes on every email; and
4.1.8. you will not email any person that you know or have reason to know has opted out of receiving emails from you.
4.2. Remedies.
If you fail to abide by any of the foregoing, if your use of the Email Tools results in bounce rates, complaint rates or unsubscribe requests in excess of industry standards or if your emails are found to cause disruption to the Services, LIVE IT Group may, among other actions, limit or suspend your access to the Email Tools.
5. Account, Password And Security.
5.1. Registration.

In the event of any dispute between two or more parties as to account ownership, you agree that LIVE IT Group shall be the sole arbiter of such dispute in its discretion and that LIVE IT Group’s decision (which may include termination or suspension of any account subject to dispute) shall be final and binding on all parties.
5.2. Security.

11. Service Modifications.
LIVE IT Group isn’t a white label solution, custom solution or a solution built specifically for each Organiser. LIVE IT Group is one of the broadest and most full featured event ticketing and registration platforms in the world. We are constantly evolving our products and services to better meet the needs of our entire user base. Because of this, we do not guarantee any set of product features or functionality and reserve the right at any time to, and from time to time may, modify, suspend or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, any part of the Services for any reason. Because you only pay fees to LIVE IT Group as you use the Services, there would be no refund of fees already due following any such change to the Services.
12. Links.
12.1. Third Party Websites.
The Services may provide, or Users may provide, links to other Internet websites or resources. Because LIVE IT Group has no control over such websites and resources, you acknowledge and agree that LIVE IT Group is not responsible for the availability of such websites or resources, and does not endorse and is not responsible or liable for any Content, advertising, products, services or other materials on or available from such websites or resources, or any damages or losses related thereto, even if such websites or resources are connected with LIVE IT Group partners or third party service providers.
12.2. Linked Accounts.
As part of the Services you may be able to link an account you have with a third party service, such as a social media website. By linking such third party account, you agree that LIVE IT Group may access, make available to and store any Content that you have provided to and stored in such third party account so that it is available on or through the Services. Such content may include personally identifiable information.
13. Privacy; Customer Information.
13.1. Privacy Policy.
All information provided by Users or collected by LIVE IT Group in connection with the Services is governed by LIVE IT Group’s Privacy Policy, a copy of which is located at liveit.io. The Privacy Policy is incorporated into the Terms of Service by reference. LIVE IT Group strongly recommends that you review the Privacy Policy.
13.2. Co-Ownership.
LIVE IT Group follows a “co-ownership model” with respect to Attendee Information (as defined below). This means that all Attendee Information inputted by an Attendee on event pages posted by an Organiser on the Services will be shared with the applicable Organiser and may also be used by LIVE IT Group in accordance with our Privacy Policy, including marketing or promotion of other events or services that may be of interest to the applicable Attendee. Note that Payment Data (as defined below) will not be shared with Organisers. Each Attendee acknowledges and agrees to this sharing and understands and agrees that each Organiser is solely responsible for the use of Attendee Information that was provided to such Organiser through the Services and that LIVE IT Group is responsible only for its own use of Attendee Information. Each Organiser represents, warrants and agrees that (a) it will at all times comply with all applicable local, state, provincial, national and other laws, rules and regulations with respect to Attendee Information; (b) it will at all times comply with any applicable policies posted on the Services with respect to Attendee Information; and (c) upon a request of a given Attendee or as permitted in Section 8.2 of these Terms of Use, LIVE IT Group is authorized at its discretion to delete or anonymize Attendee Information of a requesting Attendee from the Services at which time it will no longer be available to Organiser through the Services or will no longer be linked to an identifiable Attendee through the Services. However, Attendees should note that Attendee Information may still be available in the Organiser’s own databases if transmitted prior to LIVE IT Group receiving the underlying request. For purposes of this Section, “Attendee Information” means information about a given Attendee made available on or through the Services, including, without limitation, name, address, email address, past event attendance, event interests, credit card type, last 4 credit card digits and phone numbers, but excluding Payment Data.
13.3. Payment Data.
LIVE IT Group will not share with an Organiser any Payment Data. “Payment Data” means any full credit card number or other full payment account number and the related expiration date and security code entered by an Attendee on the Services in order to purchase a ticket or registration, make a donation or purchase merchandise related to events, so long as such information is entered in the fields under “Payment” on the order payment page. LIVE IT Group DOES NOT HOLD OR KEEP OR TRANSMIT ANY PAYMENT DATA, any payment data entered in LIVE IT Group is directly inputted in our Payment Provider widget/gateway. Note that if an Attendee enters such information in other areas of the Services or otherwise provides it to another User, it may not be encrypted and may be automatically shared with the applicable Organiser, so Attendees should enter such information only under “Payment” on the order payment page.
