Type of users

There are two different types of users which these terms apply to:

• “Organizers”. An Organizer, is an individual, normally such as an employee, contractor or partner of a Host who is part of the team which helps the Host manage, run and host Events on Bevy’s platform. Organizers have special access privileges and are invited to access and use Bevy by a Host.
• “Participants”. A Participant is anyone who attends an Event on Bevy’s platform. Participants are either invited to a specific Event by a Host or have signed up for a Bevy account and attend an Event using their account details. Participants also include anyone that has been invited by the Host to speak at an Event, exhibit at an Event, or sponsor an Event.

Our role

Events are organized and administered by the Host, not Bevy. We are a third-party providing the platform for an event to take place. We are not responsible and cannot be held liable for any aspect of the Event not directly related to the technical facility of the Event, including but not limited to:

• If an event is cancelled for any reason by the Host;
• For how an event is run;
• For any content produced or activities carried out during an Event;
• For the conduct or Contributions (as defined below) of any other Participants; or
• For any technical difficulties arising from any equipment, hardware and ancillary services needed to connect to, access or otherwise use the Services.

Complaints

If you wish to discuss any of the matters listed above, or you have paid for a ticket to an Event and would like to request a refund, you should contact the Host, whose responsibility it is to deal with the matter. Our only responsibility is to provide the technical facility for the Event to run. If you are experiencing technical issues with Bevy, please contact us as set out in this Agreement.

The Host has full control over the running of any Event. This includes control over any Participants, when Events are created, how they are configured, and what functionality and third-party integrations are activated for use at each Event.The Host may prohibit or withdraw access to Events to any Participant at any time, with or without notice.It is solely the Host’s responsibility to:
