CLASSPOP! CODE OF CONDUCT
CLASSPOP, INC. GUEST AGREEMENT
1. HOW CLASSPOP! WORKS
Important notice:
The Website acts as a platform to allow Vendors and Guests to connect and arrange Events at Venues. You acknowledge and agree that Classpop! is not a party to any arrangement between the Vendor, the Venue and Guest(s), and Classpop! does not manage any Events listed on the Website. All Vendors are independent and no agents or employees of Classpop! and Classpop! only acts as a broker. As a result, any part of an actual or potential transaction between a Vendor, Venue, and Guest, including the quality of the Event, safety, and condition of the Venue provided, and the truth or accuracy of any Event listings (including the content thereof or any ratings and reviews) are solely the responsibility of each user, Guest or Vendor. Although Classpop! selects Vendors carefully, Classpop! has no means to supervise and control the Vendors. Classpop! has also no means to control the Guests.
You further understand that Classpop! does not itself offer culinary, artistry, floral or other professional services, and has no responsibility or liability for the acts or omissions of any Vendor or Guest. Classpop! is not the retailer (unless otherwise noted) of any products offered by a Vendor on the Website, nor is Classpop! in the delivery business or a common carrier. Classpop! will not assess or guarantee the suitability, legality or ability of any Vendor or Guest. For that reason, Classpop! is not responsible for any Vendor’s food preparation or the safety of the food, and does not verify any Vendor’s compliance with applicable laws or regulations, and you acknowledge that Classpop! has no responsibility or liability for acts or omissions by any Vendor or Guest unless Classpop! negligently or willfully caused these acts or omissions. Where a Vendor is subject to local regulations (such as certificates and permissions to work as a Vendor), compliance with such regulations is the Vendor’s sole responsibility. Classpop! has no means to check and warrant a Vendor’s compliance with such regulations and local laws.
In order to use certain features of the Website, you will have to create an account with Classpop! (“Member Account”) and provide certain information about yourself as prompted by the Website. You represent and warrant that (a) all required registration information you submit is truthful and accurate, and (b) you will maintain the accuracy of such information. In particular, you must state your true name and address and not a synonym because Classpop!’s Services rely on your correct name and address. You may delete your Member Account at any time, for any reason, by following the instructions on the Website. Alternatively, we may permit you to login to our Website with your login credentials from a third-party service such as Facebook or Google (a “Third Party Account”). If you log in or otherwise associate your Member Account with your login credentials from a Third Party Account, we may receive information about you from the provider of the Third Party Account (“Third Party Provider”) in accordance with the terms and conditions (e.g., terms of use and privacy policy) of such provider (“Third Party Terms”). If you connect to your Third Party Account, remember that Classpop! is not responsible for the contents or transmission of your Third Party Provider or for the Third Party Terms or privacy practices of the Third Party Provider. For more information on how your personal information is shared between the Website and any Third Party Providers, please read our Privacy Policy . You may never use another’s Member Account without permission. YOU ARE ENTIRELY RESPONSIBLE FOR MAINTAINING THE CONFIDENTIALITY OF YOUR USERNAME AND PASSWORD AND FOR ANY AND ALL ACTIVITIES THAT ARE CONDUCTED THROUGH YOUR ACCOUNT.
Subject to these Terms, you are granted a limited license to (a) use the Website and the functionality provided by the Website to upload, store, display, aggregate, organize, and share your photographs, artworks, illustrations, descriptions, reviews, ratings, comments and other material (“Content”), including, without limitation, your recipes, techniques, instructions, methods, and ingredients lists (“Recipes”), (b) to copy, display, and use the functionality, materials, features, and services provided by the Website (collectively the “ Materials” and as further defined in Section 7) solely for your personal, non-commercial use, and (c) share, copy and display any Content, Recipes appearing on the Classpop! Website, provided your use is for your personal, non-commercial use, and you attribute the work to Classpop! and any other applicable author(s). You must make sure, and you are responsible for that all the Content you upload to the Website or make available via the Website is free of third-party rights. The design and layout of the Website are specifically excluded from the Materials.
No contract will exist between you and Classpop! for Services on Classpop! until Classpop! accepts your order by a confirmation email, SMS/MMS message, or other appropriate means of communication.
Classpop! has retained one or several payment processor providers who have a license to act as payment processor providers in all countries Classpop! is currently active. If we speak about payments to and from Classpop! in these Terms, the relevant third party payment processor provider is the responsible party for the payment transfers.
(a) Guest Payments. Each Guest will pay the fees for each Event (the “Contribution”) in advance. By reserving admission to an Event, you agree that your payment card or other payment means may be charged for the full amount of the Contribution prior to the Event.
(b) Vendor Compensation. If you are a Vendor following the Event or receipt of payment in connection with a prepared meal, Classpop! will remit the total amount of the Contributions it has collected from each Guest for that Event and/or amounts received by Classpop! in connection with a prepared meal, less Classpop’s Host Service Fee (as described in your Member Account profile page) and Rental Fees (as described in Section 4(f) below), if any.
(c) Payment Information. You agree to pay all fees or charges to your Member Account in accordance with the fees, charges, and billing terms in effect at the time a fee or charge is due and payable. You must provide Company with a valid credit card (Visa, MasterCard, or any other issuer accepted by us), Apple Pay or PayPal account of a payment provider (“Payment Provider”), or purchase order information as a condition to signing up for the Services. Your Payment Provider agreement governs your use of the designated credit card, Apple Pay, or PayPal account, and you must refer to that agreement, not these Terms, to determine your rights and liabilities. By providing Company with your credit card, Apple Pay or PayPal account and associated payment information, you agree that Company is authorized to immediately invoice your Member Account for all fees and charges due and payable to Company hereunder and that no additional consent is required. You agree to immediately notify Company of any change in your billing address or the credit card, Apple Pay, or PayPal account used for payment hereunder. Company reserves the right at any time to change its prices for Events and other Services you did not subscribe to either immediately upon posting on our Website or by e-mail delivery to you. Verification of information applicable to payments made by Guests may be required prior to your attendance of any Event.
(d) Cancellation Fees. Specific cancellation policies may be displayed in connection with each Event on the Website. If the Website does not display a cancellation policy with respect to a particular Event, the following will apply:
If you, as a Guest, cancel your Booked Event:
- Up to 48 hours before the scheduled time of the Event (the “ Start Time”), you will receive a full refund;
- Less than 48 hours of the Start Time, you will not receive any refund.
(e) Classpop! Host Service Fees. Joining the Website, creating a user profile, and creating and searching for Events is free. If you are a Vendor, Classpop! does, however, charge a Host Service Fee (as described in Section 4(b)) for any payments made for the Service, which are listed on your profile page and available via your Member Account. Classpop! may choose to temporarily change the fees or offer discounts for promotional events or new services (“Classpop! Discounts”), which may be subject to additional terms and conditions (“Additional Terms”). If there is any conflict between these Terms and Additional Terms, the Additional Terms take precedence in relation to that Classpop! Discount. Before you participate in any Classpop! Discount, you should always read the Additional Terms.
(f) Event Location and Rental Fees. Vendors may book Event locations through Classpop! in the event you, as a Vendor, cannot find a suitable location. In the event, you, as a Vendor, book an Event location and/or supplies (e.g. chairs, tables, etc.) through Classpop!, Classpop! will deduct the costs incurred by Classpop! in reserving the location and supplies, plus Classpop!’s Service Fee (“Rental Fees”) from the Contributions paid by the Guests of such Event. In the event the Rental Fees are in excess of the Contributions, you, as the Vendor, agree to reimburse Classpop! for all Rental Fees in excess of the Contributions.
(g) Service Subscription Fees. You will be responsible for payment of the applicable fee for any Services (each, a “Service Subscription Fee”) at the time you create your Member Account and select your monthly or annual (as applicable) package (each, a “Service Commencement Date”).
(h) Automatic Renewal. Your subscription will continue indefinitely until terminated in accordance with these Terms. After your initial subscription period of currently one month (that begins after the expiry of your free trial period, and again after any subsequent subscription period, your subscription will automatically commence on the first day following the end of such period (each a “Renewal Commencement Date”) and continue for an additional equivalent period. You agree that your Member Account will be subject to this automatic renewal feature unless you cancel your subscription at least thirty (30) days prior to the Renewal Commencement Date (or in the event that you receive a notice from Classpop! that your subscription will be automatically renewed, you will have thirty (30) days from the date of the Classpop! notice) by logging into your Classpop! account and going to the “Classpop!
