EventEngage Entity, Governing Law and Venue

EventEngage LLC is a Delaware corporation headquartered at 16192 Coastal Highway, Lewes, Delaware 19958, County of Sussex. You may contact EventEngage LLC by emailing us at hello@eventengage.io. These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to conflict of law principles, and the only courts competent to deal with any dispute between you and EventEngage LLC that may arise about their validity, interpretation or performance, unless there is a contrary and mandatory procedural requirement, will be the state courts and federal courts located within the State of Delaware, Delaware for resolution of any lawsuit or court proceeding permitted under these Terms, and you and EventEngage submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of those courts..

Dispute Resolution for U.S. Users

If you an Attendee or Exhibitor inside the United States, then the Services are being provided to you by EventEngage LLC, and you agree that any disputes between you and EventEngage LLC arising under these Terms will be resolved by binding, individual arbitration as follows:

  • Generally. In the interest of resolving disputes between you and EventEngage in the most expedient and cost effective manner, and except as described below, you and EventEngage agree that every dispute arising in connection with these Terms will be resolved by binding arbitration. Arbitration is less formal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, may allow for more limited discovery than in court, and can be subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. This agreement to arbitrate disputes includes all claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of these Terms, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, and regardless of whether a claim arises during or after the termination of these Terms. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS, YOU AND EVENTENGAGE ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.
  • Exceptions. Nevertheless, nothing in these Terms will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit the right of either party to: (a) bring an individual action in small claims court; (b) pursue an enforcement action through the applicable federal, state, or local agency if that action is available; (c) seek injunctive relief in a court of law in aid of arbitration; or (d) to file suit in a court of law to address an intellectual property infringement claim.
  • Opt-Out. If you do not wish to resolve disputes by binding arbitration, you may opt out of the provisions of this Section within 30 days after the date that you agree to these Terms by sending an email to hello@eventengage.io that specifies: your full legal name, the email address associated with your Account, and a statement that you wish to opt out of arbitration (Opt-Out Notice). Once EventEngage receives your Opt-Out Notice, this Section will be void and any action arising out of these Terms will be resolved as set forth in Section 18. The remaining provisions of these Terms will not be affected by your Opt-Out Notice.
  • Arbitrator. Any arbitration between you and EventEngage will be settled under the Federal Arbitration Act and administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules (collectively, AAA Rules) as modified by these Terms. The AAA Rules and filing forms are available online at www.adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879, or by contacting EventEngage. The arbitrator has exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, or enforceability of this binding arbitration agreement.
  • Notice of Arbitration; Process. A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send a written notice of the dispute to the other party by certified U.S. Mail or by Federal Express (signature required) or, only if that other party has not provided a current physical address, then by electronic mail (Notice of Arbitration). EventEngage’s address for Notice is: EventEngage LLC, Raj Baruah, 30025, Alicia Pkwy #20-2124, Laguna Niguel, CA 92766 USA. The Notice of Arbitration must: (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought (Demand). The parties will make good faith efforts to resolve the claim directly, but if the parties do not reach an agreement to do so within 30 days after the Notice of Arbitration is received, you or EventEngage may commence an arbitration proceeding. All arbitration proceedings between the parties will be confidential unless otherwise agreed by the parties in writing. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by you or EventEngage must not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator makes a final decision and award, if any. If the arbitrator awards you an amount higher than the last written settlement amount offered by EventEngage in settlement of the dispute prior to the award, EventEngage will pay to you the higher of: (i) the amount awarded by the arbitrator; or (ii) $5,000.
  • Fees. Payment of any fees in connection with arbitration will be decided by the AAA Rules. Any arbitration hearing will take place at a location to be agreed upon in Delaware, but if the claim is for $5,000 or less, you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted: (a) solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator; (b) through a non-appearance based telephone hearing; or (c) by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules in the county (or parish) of your billing address. If the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in the Demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. In that case, you agree to reimburse EventEngage for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator must issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based. The arbitrator may make rulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of fees or expenses at any time during the proceeding and upon request from either party made within 14 days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits.
  • No Class Actions. YOU AND EVENTENGAGE 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 OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and EventEngage agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.
  • Modifications to this Arbitration Provision. If EventEngage makes any future change to this arbitration provision, other than a change to EventEngage’s address for Notice of Arbitration, you may reject the change by sending us written notice within 30 days of the change to EventEngage’s address for Notice of Arbitration, in which case your account with EventEngage will be immediately terminated and this arbitration provision, as in effect immediately prior to the changes you rejected will survive.
  • Enforceability. If the mutual class action waiver set forth in this Section or the entirety of this Section is found to be unenforceable, or if EventEngage receives an Opt-Out Notice from you, then the entirety of this Section will be null and void and, in that case, the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in Section 18 will govern any action arising out of or related to these Terms.

Miscellaneous

General Terms. These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy, the Organizer Terms and any other agreements expressly incorporated by reference into these Terms, are the entire and exclusive understanding and agreement between you and EventEngage regarding your use of the Services. You may not assign or transfer these Terms or your rights under these Terms, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise, without our prior written consent. We may assign these Terms at any time without notice or consent. The failure to require performance of any provision will not affect our right to require performance at any other time after that, nor will a waiver by us of any breach or default of these Terms, or any provision of these Terms, be a waiver of any subsequent breach or default or a waiver of the provision itself. Use of Section headers in these Terms is for convenience only and will not have any impact on the interpretation of any provision. Throughout these Terms the use of the word “including” means “including but not limited to” and the use of the word “Services” includes any Event Platform created through the Services. If any part of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the unenforceable part will be given effect to the greatest extent possible, and the remaining parts will remain in full force and effect.

Privacy Policy. Please read the EventEngage Privacy Policy [link to privacy policy] carefully for information relating to our collection, use, storage, and disclosure of your personal information. The EventEngage Privacy Policy is incorporated by this reference into, and made a part of, these Terms.

Additional Terms. Your use of the Services are subject to all additional terms, policies, rules, or guidelines applicable to the Services or certain features of the Services that we may post on or link to from the Services, which are all incorporated by this reference into, and made a part of, these Terms.

Consent to Electronic Communications. By using the Services, you consent to receiving certain electronic communications from us as further described in our Privacy Policy. Please read our Privacy Policy to learn more about our electronic communications practices.

No Support. We are under no obligation to provide support for the Services. In instances where we may offer support, the support will be subject to published policies.

Organizer Terms

Purpose

EventEngage provides a webapp that can be accessed via https://eventengage.io/ and its subdomains, and an API (collectively, the Application) via which it offers professional event organizers (the Organizers) a turnkey solution enabling them to create a platform for each of their events (the Event Platform) that can be accessed by registered natural persons and/or people who might be interested in the event (the Attendees) and businesses taking part in the event (the Exhibitors).

EventEngage enables the Organizer to create and customize one or more Event Platforms, and puts at their disposal different services (the Services), which can be listed in a purchase order form (the Purchase Order), with the aim of allowing Attendees and Exhibitors to share content and easily connect with each other before, during and after the events (the Events).

The purpose of these organizer terms of use (the Organizer Terms of Use) is to lay down the procedures and conditions governing Organizers’ access to the Application, and set out the rights and obligations of the parties within this scope.

The conditions can be accessed and printed out at any time by going to the direct link at the bottom of the website page https://eventengage.io/

They are supplemented by a purchase order that can be accessed online or sent by EventEngage and/or a master services agreement (the Specific Conditions), that include the duration of their contractual commitment, the number of Event Platforms and the Services to which they have subscribed, as well as the specified financial conditions (collectively, the Contract).

In the event of contradiction, the Specific Conditions will take precedence over the Organizer Terms of Use.
