Terms of Use

UNITED STATES - TERMS OF USE

Last Updated: 24 September 2022

Please read these “Terms of Use” carefully as they set out the basis on which you are allowed to use the mobile app (the “App”) and the services, features, content, applications, websites, or widgets (the “Services”) offered by Markit Social Inc. (“Markit,” “we,” “us” or “our”). If you have any questions about the App or Services, please contact us at hello@markitsocial.net before registering to use the App or the Services.

BY INSTALLING OR OTHERWISE ACCESSING OR USING THE APP OR SERVICES, YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE READ AND UNDERSTOOD THESE TERMS OF USE AND YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS OF USE. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THESE TERMS OF USE, THEN YOU DO NOT HAVE OUR PERMISSION TO USE THE APP OR SERVICES.

AS PROVIDED IN GREATER DETAIL IN SECTION 11 BELOW (AND WITHOUT LIMITING THE EXPRESS LANGUAGE OF THAT SECTION), YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT (1) DISPUTES ARISING BETWEEN YOU AND MARKIT IN CONNECTION WITH THESE TERMS OF USE OR YOUR USE OF THE APP OR SERVICES WILL BE RESOLVED BY BINDING ARBITRATION, AND (2) BY ACCEPTING THESE TERMS OF USE, YOU AND MARKIT ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.

1. ABOUT US

1.1 Markit connects those who create and promote events (“Event Creators”) and those who attend those events (“Attendees”). When we use the word “you” in these Terms, it refers to any user, regardless of whether he or she is an Event Provider or an Attendee, while if we use one of those specific terms, it only applies to that category of user.

1.2 Markit is a simple way to promote events where Event Creators (including promoters, artists, performers, entertainers, venues, etc.) use text messaging to capture and grow their audience. Markit gives Event Creators a reliable way to stay engaged with their fans by giving them their own phone numbers to send custom text messages to all the people that have gone to their previous events. Our event platform makes it easy for people to go to the events they care about.

1.3 Attendees are responsible for making their own determinations regarding Event Creators and the events, venues or services provided by those Event Creators (together, “Events”). Markit is only responsible for connecting Event Creators and Attendees, and can’t and won’t be responsible for making sure that Events are actually provided or are up to a certain standard of quality. Event Creators are not employees, partners, representatives, agents, joint venturers, independent contractors or franchisees of Markit. Markit does not provide any Events and does not employ individuals to perform any Events. You acknowledge that Markit does not supervise, direct, control or monitor the Events and expressly disclaims any responsibility and liability for the Events, including but not limited to any warranty or condition of good and workmanlike services, warranty or condition of quality or fitness for a particular purpose, or compliance with any law, regulation, or code.

We may use this information to contact you and to provide the Services you request from us. We will never share this information with a third party, except as expressly provided in our Privacy Policy.

3. GENERAL SERVICE DESCRIPTION

3.1 The Services enable you to acquire tickets for events, providing you with entry into venues and other establishments. We make available tickets on behalf of third party Event Creators who are not connected in any way with Markit. When you purchase a ticket you obtain a right to attend the event as granted by the Event Creator, as further described in our Purchase Terms. The third party Event Creators are responsible to you for the relevant events, and we are not liable for the event or any actions or inactions of the Event Creators or anything that occurs at any event as further described in Section 6 below.

3.2 The Services allow you to register an account which is specific to you. To provide you with access to the App and the Services, we must collect, process and store certain data, which we will do in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

3.3 The App will also provide you with gig, competition, product, and event recommendations based on your preferences, purchase history and what events people like you are going to. These recommendations will be shown to you via the Swipe, and Discovery page in the App.

3.4 We may, from time to time, update the App and the Services to provide additional functionality or services to you, or to carry out any maintenance or upgrades to existing functionality, and we can do so without any notice or liability to you.

3.5 Tickets purchased through the Services will be subject to our Purchase Terms as well as any additional terms and conditions provided to you by the Event Creator(s) and the venue of the event, and you acknowledge and agree that we are not a party to such additional terms and conditions. Entry to an event will be in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Event Creator(s) and venue of the event.

3.6 In addition to the terms in 3.5, refunds for tickets purchased are refunded at the discretion of the event creator, who decides what their own refund policy per event is. The company is not liable for refunding tickets, and has no obligation to enforce event creator refunding of tickets either, once a purchase has occurred. Additionally, event creator refunds are only subject to a partial sum subtracting the Markit (the company) processing fees (6% + $1.59 per ticket). 

4. PROPRIETARY RIGHTS AND LICENSES

Further, the Markit trademarks, service marks, and logos (collectively, the “Markit Trademarks”) used and displayed on the App or Services are Markit’s registered and/or unregistered trademarks or service marks. The Markit word mark and our logo are registered trademarks and must not be used in any way without our express prior written consent. Any other product and service names located on the App or Services may be trademarks or service marks owned by third parties (collectively with the Markit Trademarks, the “Trademarks”). Except as otherwise permitted by law, you may not use the Trademarks to disparage Markit or the applicable third party, Markit’s or a third party’s products or services, or in any manner (using commercially reasonable judgment) that may damage any goodwill in the Trademarks. You may not use any Trademarks as part of a link to or from any website without Markit’s prior express written consent. All goodwill generated from the use of any Markit Trademark will insure solely to Markit’s benefit.

Markit may, however, at any time and without prior notice, screen, remove, edit, or block any User Content that in our sole judgment violates these Terms of Use or is otherwise objectionable, such as, without limitation, User Content that Markit determines is or could be interpreted to be infringing, defamatory or otherwise unlawful, harmful, threatening, abusive, harassing, vulgar, offensive, obscene, pornographic, hateful, or promoting discrimination, bigotry or racism (collectively, “Objectionable Content”). You agree to waive, and do waive, any legal or equitable right or remedy you have or may have against Markit with respect to User Content.

5.6 Markit will promptly terminate the accounts of users that are determined by Markit, in its sole discretion, to be in breach of this Agreement.

9. COPYRIGHT DMCA POLICY

9.1 In accordance with the DMCA, we’ve adopted the following policy toward copyright infringement. We reserve the right to (1) block access to or remove material that we believe in good faith to be copyrighted material that has been illegally copied and distributed by any of our advertisers, affiliates, content providers, members or users and (2) remove and discontinue service to repeat offenders.

(1) Procedure for Reporting Copyright Infringements. If you believe that material or content residing on or accessible through the Services infringes your copyright (or the copyright of someone whom you are authorized to act on behalf of), please send a notice of copyright infringement containing the following information to Markit's Designated Agent to Receive Notification of Claimed Infringement (our “Designated Agent,” whose contact details are listed below):

  1. (a)  A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the copyright that has been allegedly infringed;

  2. (b)  Identification of works or materials being infringed;

  3. (c)  Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing including information

    regarding the location of the infringing materials that the copyright owner seeks to have removed, with sufficient detail so that Company is capable of finding and verifying its existence;

  4. (d)  Contact information about the notifier including address, telephone number and, if available, email address;

  5. (e)  A statement that the notifier has a good faith belief that the material identified in (1)(c) is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and

  6. (f)  A statement made under penalty of perjury that the information provided is accurate and the notifying party is authorized to make the complaint on behalf of the copyright owner.

(2) Once Proper Bona Fide Infringement Notification is Received by the Designated Agent. Upon receipt of a proper notice of copyright infringement, we reserve the right to:

  1. (a)  remove or disable access to the infringing material;

  2. (b)  notify the content provider who is accused of infringement that we have removed or

    disabled access to the applicable material; and

  3. (c)  terminate such content provider's access to the Services if he or she is a repeat

    offender.

(3) Procedure to Supply a Counter-Notice to the Designated Agent. If the content provider believes that the material that was removed (or to which access was disabled) is not infringing, or the content provider believes that it has the right to post and use such material from the copyright owner, the copyright owner's agent, or, pursuant to the law, the content provider may send us a counter-notice containing the following information to the Designated Agent:

(a) A physical or electronic signature of the content provider;
(b) Identification of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled and the location at which the material appeared before it was

removed or disabled;
(c) A statement that the content provider has a good faith belief that the material

was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification of the

material; and
(d) Content provider's name, address, telephone number, and, if available, email

address, and a statement that such person or entity consents to the jurisdiction of the Federal Court for the judicial district in which the content provider’s address is located, or, if the content provider's address is located outside the United States, for any judicial district in which Company is located, and that such person or entity will accept service of process from the person who provided notification of the alleged infringement.

If a counter-notice is received by the Designated Agent, Company may, in its discretion, send a copy of the counter-notice to the original complaining party informing that person that Company may replace the removed material or cease disabling it in 10 business days. Unless the copyright owner files an action seeking a court order against the content provider accused of committing infringement, the removed

7

material may be replaced or access to it restored in 10 to 14 business days or more after receipt of the counter-notice, at Company's discretion.

Please contact Markit's Designated Agent at the following address:

10. THIRD-PARTY CONTENT AND SERVICES

10.1 When you access third party websites or applications from the App or Services you do so at your own risk. Any third party websites or applications are outside of our control, and we are not responsible for the content, functions, accuracy, legality, appropriateness or any other aspect of such websites or applications.

10.2 Sometimes Markit may request additional permissions related to the settings on your mobile device, such as accessing your location or enabling push notifications in order to carry out certain actions or allow you to enjoy certain features. If you choose not to give us the necessary permissions then you may not be able to access all the features and functions of the App.

11. DISPUTE RESOLUTION

11.1 In the interest of resolving disputes between you and Markit in the most expedient and cost effective manner, you and Markit agree that any dispute arising out of or in any way related to these Terms of Use or your use of the App or Services 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 in any way related to these Terms of Use or your use of the App or Services, 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 of Use. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS OF USE, YOU AND MARKIT ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION AND THAT THESE TERMS OF USE SHALL BE SUBJECT TO AND GOVERNED BY THE FEDERAL ARBITRATION ACT.

11.2 Notwithstanding Section 11.1 above, nothing in these Terms of Use 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 aid of arbitration from a court of competent jurisdiction; or (d) to file suit in a court of law to address an intellectual property infringement claim.

11.3 Any arbitration between you and Markit will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act and the Commercial Dispute Resolution Procedures and Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, “AAA Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), as modified by these Terms of Use, and will be administered by the AAA. The AAA Rules and filing forms are available online at www.adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879. The arbitrator has exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability or enforceability of this binding arbitration agreement.

11.4 A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send a written notice of the dispute to the other party by U.S. Mail (“Notice”). Markit’s address for Notice is: 251 Little Falls Drive, Wilmington, New Castle County, Delaware 19808. The Notice 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 is

received, you or Markit may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by you or Markit must not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator makes a final decision and award, if any. If the dispute is finally resolved through arbitration in your favor with a monetary award that exceeds the last written settlement amount offered by Markit prior to selection of an arbitrator, Markit will pay you the highest of the following: (i) the amount awarded by the arbitrator, if any; (ii) the last written settlement amount offered by Markit in settlement of the dispute prior to the arbitrator’s award; or (iii) $15,000.

11.5 If you commence arbitration in accordance with these Terms of Use, Markit will reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee, unless your claim is for more than $15,000 or as set forth below, in which case the payment of any fees will be decided by the AAA Rules. Any arbitration hearing will take place at a location to be agreed upon in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, but if the claim is for $15,000 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 Markit 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. Each party agrees that such written decision, and information exchanged during arbitration, will be kept confidential except to the extent necessary to enforce or permit limited judicial review of the award. 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. Notwithstanding anything in these Terms of Use to the contrary, and for the avoidance of doubt, the arbitrator can award injunctive relief as a remedy in any arbitration required under this Section 11.

11.6 YOU AND MARKIT 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 Markit 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.

11.7 Except as otherwise provided in these Terms of Use, if Markit makes any future change to this arbitration provision, other than a change to Markit’s address for Notice, you may reject the change by sending us written notice within 30 days of the change to Markit’s address for Notice, in which case this arbitration provision, as in effect immediately prior to the changes you rejected, will continue to govern any disputes between you and Markit.

11.8 If Section 11.6 above is found to be unenforceable or if the entirety of this Section 11 is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Section 11 will be null and void, and, in that case, the parties agree that the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in Section 13.2 will govern any action arising out of or related to these Terms of Use.

12. PAYMENT TERMS

The Services may be free or we may charge a fee for using the Services. If you are using a free version of the Services, we will notify you before any Services you are then using begin carrying a fee, and if you wish to continue using such Services, you must pay all applicable fees for such Services. Data and message rates may apply. Any and all such charges, fees or costs are your sole responsibility. You should consult with your wireless carrier to determine what rates, charges, fees or costs may apply to your use of the Services.

  1. Paid Services. Certain of our Services may be subject to payments now or in the future (the “Paid Services”). Please see our Paid Services page https://www.markitsocial.net/markitpluss for a description of the current Paid Services. Please note that any payment terms presented to you in the process of using or signing up for a Paid Service are deemed part of these Terms. For example, some Paid Services will charge a fee for downloading or installing the Services through the App Store (as defined below) linked to your specific device. You agree to comply with, and your license to use our mobile application is conditioned upon your compliance with, such App Store terms and conditions. Any refunds relating to the applications or inquiries regarding refunds relating to the applications shall be handled solely by the applicable App Store in accordance with such App Store’s terms and conditions.

  2. Billing. We use a third-party payment processor (the “Payment Processor”) to bill you through a payment account linked to your account on the Services (your “Billing Account”) for use of the Paid Services. The processing of payments will be subject to the terms, conditions and privacy policies of the Payment Processor in addition to these Terms. Currently, we use Stripe, Inc. as our Payment Processor. You can access Stripe’s Terms of Service at https://stripe.com/us/checkout/legal and their Privacy Policy at https://stripe.com/us/privacy. We are not responsible for any error by, or other acts or omissions of, the Payment Processor. By choosing to use Paid Services, you agree to pay us, through the Payment Processor, all charges at the prices then in effect for any use of such Paid Services in accordance with the applicable payment terms, and you authorize us, through the Payment Processor, to charge your chosen payment provider (your “Payment Method”). You agree to make payment using that selected Payment Method. We reserve the right to correct any errors or mistakes that the Payment Processor makes even if it has already requested or received payment.

  3. Payment Method. The terms of your payment will be based on your Payment Method and may be determined by agreements between you and the financial institution, credit card issuer or other provider of your chosen Payment Method. If we, through the Payment Processor, do not receive payment from you, you agree to pay all amounts due on your Billing Account upon demand.

  4. Recurring Billing. Some of the Paid Services may consist of an initial period, for which there is a one-time charge, followed by recurring period charges as agreed to by you. By choosing a recurring payment plan, you acknowledge that such Services have an initial and recurring payment feature and you accept responsibility for all recurring charges prior to cancellation. WE MAY SUBMIT PERIODIC CHARGES (E.G., MONTHLY) WITHOUT FURTHER AUTHORIZATION FROM YOU, UNTIL YOU PROVIDE PRIOR NOTICE (RECEIPT OF WHICH IS CONFIRMED BY US) THAT YOU HAVE TERMINATED THIS AUTHORIZATION OR WISH TO CHANGE YOUR PAYMENT METHOD. SUCH NOTICE WILL NOT AFFECT CHARGES SUBMITTED BEFORE WE REASONABLY COULD ACT. TO TERMINATE YOUR AUTHORIZATION OR CHANGE YOUR PAYMENT METHOD, GO TO ACCOUNT SETTINGS in app on the App Store (https://apps.apple.com/ca/app/markit-explore-and-connect/id1549432558) or google play store (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.markit.markitapp).

  5. Current Information Required. YOU MUST PROVIDE CURRENT, COMPLETE AND ACCURATE INFORMATION FOR YOUR BILLING ACCOUNT. YOU MUST PROMPTLY UPDATE ALL INFORMATION TO KEEP YOUR BILLING ACCOUNT CURRENT, COMPLETE AND ACCURATE (SUCH AS A CHANGE IN BILLING ADDRESS, CREDIT CARD NUMBER, OR CREDIT CARD EXPIRATION DATE), AND YOU MUST PROMPTLY NOTIFY US OR OUR PAYMENT PROCESSOR IF YOUR PAYMENT METHOD IS CANCELED (E.G., FOR LOSS OR THEFT) OR IF YOU BECOME AWARE OF A POTENTIAL BREACH OF SECURITY, SUCH AS THE UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OR USE OF YOUR USER NAME OR PASSWORD. CHANGES TO SUCH INFORMATION CAN

BE MADE AT ACCOUNT SETTINGS in app on the App Store

(https://apps.apple.com/ca/app/markit-explore-and-connect/id1549432558) or google play store (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.markit.markitapp).. IF YOU FAIL TO PROVIDE ANY OF THE FOREGOING INFORMATION, YOU AGREE THAT WE MAY CONTINUE CHARGING YOU FOR ANY USE OF PAID SERVICES UNDER YOUR BILLING ACCOUNT UNLESS YOU HAVE TERMINATED YOUR PAID SERVICES AS SET FORTH ABOVE.

  1. Change in Amount Authorized. If the amount to be charged to your Billing Account varies from the amount you preauthorized (other than due to the imposition or change in the amount of state sales taxes), you have the right to receive, and we shall provide, notice of the amount to be charged and the date of the charge before the scheduled date of the transaction. Any agreement you have with your payment provider will govern your use of your Payment Method. You agree that we may accumulate charges incurred and submit them as one or more aggregate charges during or at the end of each billing cycle.

  2. Auto-Renewal for Paid Services. Unless you opt out of auto-renewal, which can be done through your account settings in app on the App Store (https://apps.apple.com/ca/app/markit-explore-and-connect/id1549432558) or google play store (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.markit.markitapp)., any Paid Services you have signed up for will be automatically extended for successive renewal periods of the same duration as the subscription term originally selected, at the then-current non-promotional rate. To change or resign your Paid Services at any time, go to account settings in app on the App Store (https://apps.apple.com/ca/app/markit-explore-and-connect/id1549432558) or google play store (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.markit.markitapp). or, for mobile applications, cancel your subscription in the subscription management section of the applicable App Store. If you terminate a Paid Service, you may use your subscription until the end of your then-current term, and your subscription will not be renewed after your then-current term expires. However, you will not be eligible for a prorated refund of any portion of the subscription fee paid for the then-current subscription period. IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO CONTINUE TO BE CHARGED ON A RECURRING MONTHLY BASIS, YOU MUST CANCEL THE APPLICABLE PAID SERVICE THROUGH YOUR ACCOUNT SETTINGS in app on the App Store (https://apps.apple.com/ca/app/markit-explore-and-connect/id1549432558) or google play store (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.markit.markitapp). OR TERMINATE YOUR MARKIT ACCOUNT BEFORE THE END OF THE RECURRING TERM. PAID SERVICES CANNOT BE TERMINATED BEFORE THE END OF THE PERIOD FOR WHICH YOU HAVE ALREADY PAID, AND EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN THESE TERMS, MARKIT WILL NOT REFUND ANY FEES THAT YOU HAVE ALREADY PAID.

  3. Reaffirmation of Authorization. Your non-termination or continued use of a Paid Service reaffirms that we are authorized to charge your Payment Method for that Paid Service. We may submit those charges for payment and you will be responsible for such charges. This does not waive our right to seek payment directly from you. Your charges may be payable in advance, in arrears, per usage, or as otherwise described when you initially selected to use the Paid Service.

  4. Free Trials and Other Promotions. Any free trial or other promotion that provides access to a Paid Service must be used within the specified time of the trial. You must stop using a Paid Service before the end of the trial period in order to avoid being charged for that Paid Service. If you cancel prior to the end of the trial period and are inadvertently charged for a Paid Service, please contact us at hello@markitsocial.net.
