We further reserve the right to remove any User Content for any reason and to interrupt or restrict the Services at any time, without notice to you or any other Users, if we suspect activity that is unlawful, abusive, or otherwise in breach of these Terms.
You are strictly prohibited from violating or trying to violate the security features of the Services, such as by (i) accessing data not intended for you or logging onto a server or an account that you are not authorized to access; (ii) attempting to probe, scan, or test the vulnerability of a system or network, or to breach security or authentication measures unless we expressly authorize that you do so in writing; (iii) attempting to interfere with service to any user, host or network, such as by means of submitting a virus to the Services, overloading, “flooding,” “spamming,” “mail bombing,” or “crashing” or (iv) sending unsolicited email, including promotions and/or advertising of products or services forging any TCP/IP packet header or any part of the header information in any email or newsgroup posting.
You hereby agree not to use any device, software or routine to interfere with, or try to interfere with, the proper working of the Services or any activity being conducted on the Services. You further agree not to use or try to use any engine, software, tool, agent or other device or mechanism (including browsers, spiders, robots, avatars or intelligent agents) to navigate or search the Services other than the search engine and search agents that we make available on the Services and other than the generally available third-party web browsers. If you violate our system or network security, you may face civil or criminal liability. We will investigate occurrences that may involve such violations. We may involve or cooperate with law enforcement authorities in prosecuting users who are involved in such violations.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the disclaimer of implied warranties. In such jurisdictions, the foregoing disclaimers may not apply to You insofar as they relate to implied warranties. If You rely on the representations or warranties of any third persons with respect to the Services (including without limitation by dealers or resellers of the Services) beyond those made by EventBuilder, your sole remedy for such reliance is against the third person making such representation or warranty.

WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE TO YOUR COMPUTER, SOFTWARE, MODEM, TELEPHONE OR OTHER PROPERTY RESULTING FROM YOUR USE OF (OR INABILITY TO USE) OUR SERVICES. WE WILL NOT BE LIABLE TO YOU IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO ACCESS INFORMATION THROUGH OUR SERVICES. NO ADVICE OR INFORMATION, WHETHER WRITTEN OR ORAL, OBTAINED BY YOU FROM EVENTBUILDER, ITS OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, OR REPRESENTATIVES SHALL CREATE ANY WARRANTY NOT EXPRESSLY STATED IN THESE TERMS.
YOU AGREE TO INDEMNIFY, DEFEND AND HOLD HARMLESS EVENTBUILDER AND ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, AFFILIATES, SUCCESSORS, AND ASSIGNS FROM AND AGAINST ANY AND ALL LOSSES, DAMAGES, LIABILITIES, DEFICIENCIES, CLAIMS, ACTIONS, JUDGMENTS, SETTLEMENTS, INTEREST, AWARDS, PENALTIES, FINES, COST, EXPENSE, OR DEMAND, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ATTORNEYS FEES, DUE OR RELATING TO OR ARISING OUT OF (I) YOUR USE OR MISUSE OF OUR SERVICES, (II) ANY OTHER PERSON'S USE OF ANY ACCOUNT OR PIN YOU MAINTAIN, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH USE IS AUTHORIZED BY YOU; (III) YOUR PROMISES OR STATEMENTS MADE IN THESE TERMS; (IV) YOUR BREACH OF OUR TERMS, OR (V) ANY BREACH OF YOUR REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES SET FORTH IN OUR TERMS.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL EVENTBUILDER OR OUR AFFILIATES, OR ANY OF OUR OR THEIR RESPECTIVE LICENSORS OR SERVICE PROVIDERS OR ANY OF OUR OR THEIR EMPLOYEES, DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, AGENTS, SUPPLIERS OR THIRD-PARTY SERVICE PROVIDERS BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY THIRD PARTY UNDER ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY - WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), AGENCY, WARRANTY, STATUTE, OR OTHERWISE - FOR ANY INDIRECT, EXTRAORDINARY, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, ANY LOSS OF DATA, REVENUE, PROFITS, USE, OR OTHER ECONOMIC ADVANTAGE, OR ANY OTHER LOSSES OR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, HOWEVER ARISING, EVEN IF EVENTBUILDER KNEW OR SHOULD HAVE KNOWN THAT THERE WAS A POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LOSSES OR DAMAGES.
WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING PROVISIONS OR THE PROVISIONS OF OUR PRIVACY NOTICE IN ANY WAY, THE LIMIT ON TOTAL CUMULATIVE LIABILITY OWED BY EVENTBUILDER TO YOU OR ANY PERSON FOR ANY CLAIMS ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO THE SERVICES SHALL BE LIMITED TO A MAXIMUM OF THE AMOUNT YOU HAVE PAID EVENTBUILDER FOR THE SERVICES OR ACCESS TO OUR SERVICES IN THE THREE (3) MONTHS PRECEDING THE DATE OF THE CLAIM GIVING RISE TO SUCH LIABILITY OR, IF NO FEES WERE PAID DURING SUCH THREE-MONTH PERIOD, ONE HUNDRED US DOLLARS ($100), IN EACH CASE, WHETHER OR NOT EVENTBUILDER HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. ANY CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICES MUST BE COMMENCED WITHIN TWELVE (12) MONTHS AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUES; OTHERWISE, SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.
PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT CONTAINS A CLASS ACTION WAIVER, REQUIRES YOU TO ARBITRATE CERTAIN DISPUTES, AND CLAIMS AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM US. You agree that any dispute, controversy or claim between you and EventBuilder arising out of or relating to: (i) these Terms, or the breach thereof; (ii) our provision of the Services; (iii) your access to or use of the Services; or (iv) any alleged violation of any federal, state, or local law, statute, or ordinance (each such dispute, controversy or claim, a “Dispute”) will be governed by the arbitration procedure outlined below.
- Informal Dispute Resolution. We want to address your concerns without the necessity of a formal legal case. Before filing a claim against EventBuilder, you agree to try to resolve the Dispute informally by contacting EventBuilder at care@eventbuilder.com. We will contact you by email as part of a good faith effort to resolve the Dispute informally. If a Dispute is not resolved within 30 days after submission, you or we may bring a formal proceeding.
- Certain Privacy-Related Complaints. Individuals with residency in the European Union, Switzerland, or the United Kingdom may resolve privacy-related complaints under Data Privacy Framework Principles through our free independent recourse mechanism. Please see Section 12 of our Data Privacy Framework Notice for details.
- Arbitration Agreement. You and EventBuilder each agree to resolve any Disputes through final and binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes. The arbitration will be held in Vancouver, Washington, United States, or any other location we agree to. The AAA rules will govern payment of all arbitration fees. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either you or EventBuilder may assert claims, if they qualify, in small claims court in Vancouver, Washington, or any United States county where you live or work. Either party may bring a lawsuit solely for injunctive relief to stop unauthorized use or abuse of our Services, or infringement of intellectual property rights (for example, trademark, trade secret, copyright, or patent rights) without first engaging in arbitration or the informal dispute resolution process described above. YOU AGREE TO GIVE UP ANY RIGHTS TO LITIGATE CLAIMS IN A COURT OR BEFORE A JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION WITH RESPECT TO A CLAIM. OTHER RIGHTS THAT YOU WOULD HAVE IF YOU WENT TO COURT, SUCH AS ACCESS TO DISCOVERY, ALSO MAY BE UNAVAILABLE OR LIMITED IN ARBITRATION. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this paragraph does not apply to Disputes that are privacy-related complaints described in Section 19(b).
- Class Action Waiver. YOU HEREBY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO COMMENCE OR PARTICIPATE IN ANY CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT AGAINST EVENTBUILDER RELATED TO ANY CLAIM, DISPUTE OR CONTROVERSY, AND, WHERE APPLICABLE, YOU HEREBY AGREE TO OPT OUT OF ANY CLASS PROCEEDING AGAINST EVENTBUILDER OTHERWISE COMMENCED.
EventBuilder controls and operates the Services from its offices within the United States. You acknowledge that you may not be able to access all or some of the Services outside of the United States, and that access thereto may not be legal by certain persons or in certain countries. If you choose to access the Services from another location, you do so on your own initiative and are responsible for compliance with applicable local laws.
EventBuilder shall be excused from any delay or failure in performance hereunder caused by reason of occurrence or contingency beyond its reasonable control, including without limitation, acts of God, earthquake, fire, flooding, riots, war, pandemic, or government requirements.
An Organizer may change its account ownership by reassigning the account to a different email address. The new owner will be required to accept these Terms in order to gain access to the Organizer’s account. The prior account owner will no longer have access to the Organizer’s account. Except for such account ownership changes, you may not otherwise assign, delegate, or transfer these Terms, or your rights or obligations hereunder, or your subscription or other use of the Services, in any way (by operation of law or otherwise) without prior written consent from EventBuilder. Any attempted assignment, subcontract, delegation, or transfer in violation of the foregoing will be null and void. We may transfer, assign, or delegate these Terms and our rights and obligations without consent. Subject to the foregoing, these Terms shall bind and inure to the benefit of the parties, their respective successors and permitted assigns.
Notices to you are effective when sent by email to the email address we have on file for you or, at our option and if applicable, three (3) days following the date such notice is deposited in the US Mail addressed to the address we have on file for you. You are responsible for notifying us of any changes in your contact information. Written notice to EventBuilder shall be effective when directed to our Customer Care Department and received at our mailing address. Your notice must specify your name, email address, telephone contact and EventBuilder account number.
Claims relating to, including the use of, the Services and the Contents are governed by the laws of the United States and the State of Washington, without regard to its conflicts of laws rules.

You waive any and all objections to the exercise of jurisdiction over you by such courts and to venue in such courts..

By accessing our Services, registering with us, typing your name into any of our electronic forms and indicating your acceptance, or submitting information to us, you consent to (a) EventBuilder communicating with you electronically; (b) receiving all applications, notices, disclosures and authorizations (collectively, “Records”) from EventBuilder electronically; and (c) entering into agreements and transactions using electronic Records and signatures. Please note that federal law treats electronic signatures as having the same legal force and effect as if they were signed on paper by hand, and online contracts have the same legal force as signing an equivalent paper contract in ink. EventBuilder will use electronic documents for all communications, agreements, disclosures, authorizations, and other documents necessary to provide you with the Services. You must have a computer or other web-enabled device, a connection to the internet, an active email account, and the ability to receive and read electronic files to conduct business with us electronically. You agree to be responsible for keeping your own Records. You may print or download Records from the Services and keep them for your own reference. If you require assistance with your Records, wish to receive Records in paper format, or wish to withdraw your consent to receiving electronic Records from us, please contact us at privacy@eventbuilder.com. Agreements and transactions executed prior to this request will remain valid and enforceable.
- Service Communications. EventBuilder may use your contact information to communicate with you about Events you are organizing or registered to attend or your other use of our Services. For example, we may send you invitation emails, service announcements, or administrative emails. We may use text, phone, or other means to authenticate your account or provide you with User support. You understand that you receive these communications as part of your use of the Services, and you will not be able to opt out from receiving these service announcements and administrative messages.

- Geographic Restrictions. EventBuilder is owned and operated in the United States. Access to our Services may not be legal by certain persons or in certain jurisdictions. If you access the Services from outside the United States, you do so on your own initiative and are responsible for compliance with local laws.
- Relationship of Parties. The Parties’ relationship, as established by these Terms, is solely that of independent contractors. These Terms do not create any partnership, joint venture, or similar business relationship between the parties. Neither party is a legal representative of the other party, and neither party can direct and control the day-to-day activities of the other, or assume or create any obligation, representation, warranty, or guarantee, express or implied, on behalf of the other party for any purpose whatsoever.
- Assignment. You may not assign, delegate, or transfer these Terms, by operation of law or otherwise, without our prior written consent, but EventBuilder may freely assign or transfer these Terms without restriction. Any attempt by you to assign or transfer these Terms, without such consent, will be null. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either Party may, without consent, assign these Terms to any successor to all or substantially all its business that concerns these Terms (whether by sale of assets or equity, merger, consolidation or otherwise). Subject to the foregoing, these Terms will bind and inure to the benefit of the Parties, their successors, and permitted assigns.
- Entire Agreement. Except as otherwise stated herein, these Terms and the agreements incorporated by reference herein constitute the entire and exclusive understanding and agreement between EventBuilder and you regarding the Services and supersede and replace any and all prior oral or written understandings or agreements between EventBuilder and you regarding the Services. Agreements between you and EventBuilder may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same Terms of Service. In the event of any inconsistency between these Terms and our Customer Terms of Service if you are a party thereto as our Customer, the Customer Terms of Service shall govern and control. The section headings in agreements between you and EventBuilder are for convenience only and in no way define, limit, construe or describe the scope or extent of the sections. The language used in agreements between you and EventBuilder will be deemed to be the language chosen by the Parties to express the Parties’ collective mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction will be applied against any Party.
- Enforcement. EventBuilder reserves the right, but is not required, to remove or disable your access to our Services, disable any username, password, or other identifier, whether chosen by you or provided by us, remove any Contents, or remove your User Content at any time and without notice, and at our sole discretion, if we determine that your use of our Services is in any way objectionable or in violation of these Terms. Certain violations of these Terms, as determined by EventBuilder, may result in immediate termination of your access to the Services without prior notice to you. We have the right to investigate violations of these Terms and any conduct that affects our Services, and in response may take any action we may deem appropriate.
- Waiver; Severability. EventBuilder’s failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not be considered a waiver of such right or provision. Except as expressly set forth herein, the exercise by either Party of any of its remedies under these Terms will be without prejudice to its other remedies under these Terms or otherwise. If for any reason a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of these Terms invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permissible, and the other provisions of these Terms will remain in full force and effect to the greatest extent permitted by law.
- Notices. Any notices or other communications provided by us under these Terms will be given to you via email to the email address on your account or by posting the notice to the Services. Notices from you to EventBuilder will be given via email to care@eventbuilder.com or to the mailing address posted on the Site. For notices made by email, the date of receipt on the message will be deemed the date on which such notice is transmitted.
These Terms are effective on the date we activate the Services for you through your registration as a User, and continues until you terminate these Terms by notifying us in writing of such termination; unless you are a Customer pursuant to our Customer Terms of Service, in such case the term of these Terms of Use follows the term of the Terms of Service between you and EventBuilder. Except for any termination of your Customer Terms of Service as set forth above, these Terms shall remain in full force and effect as long as you use the Site or any other Services. To terminate these Terms, please contact EventBuilder in writing and discontinue all use of the Services. Any cancellation of the Services or termination of these Terms is effective when you discontinue all use of the Services. On termination, you lose the right to access or use all of our Services. Sections 5 through 12, 15 through 19, 25, and 26 (inclusive of all subsections) shall survive termination of these Terms.
EventBuilder reserves the right to revise these Terms of Use by updating the Terms of Use posted to its website without prior notice. Your continued use of our Services following the posting of changes constitutes your acceptance of such changes. You are advised to periodically visit this page to determine the then current Terms of Use.
