These terms and conditions apply to all Users.

Your order

Your order is an offer to contract with us.

You place your order by using the ordering process on our site. This involves transmitting the order to us. This process permits you to check and amend any errors before making an order by using the change function and/or the internet browser back button.

We will send you a confirmation email after your order. This is our acceptance of your offer and the point at which a legally binding contract is formed.

If you do have the right to cancel, the following apply:

Right to cancel

You have the right to cancel this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.

The cancellation period will expire after 14 days from the day of the conclusion of the contract. (Please note that you enter into a single contract with us as explained above. If you later decide to become a subscriber, this is still part of the same contract and it does not start a new 14-day period running.)

To exercise the right to cancel, you must inform us Mixing Out Limited, 111 Ladybank Road, Mickleover, Derbyshire, DE3 0PF, UK, or email us via our contact page of your decision to cancel this contract by a clear statement (e.g. a letter sent by post or e-mail). You may use the model cancellation form at the end of this document but it is not obligatory.

To meet the cancellation deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right to cancel before the cancellation period has expired.

Effects of cancellation

If you cancel this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you.

We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to cancel this contract.

We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of the reimbursement.

If you requested to begin the performance of services during the cancellation period, you shall pay us an amount which is in proportion to what has been performed until you have communicated to us your cancellation of this contract in comparison with the full coverage of the contract.

Events

Definitions

Users who are entitled to arrange events on our Service are described as "Organisers" and those who wish to attend events are "Participants".

Organisers

To qualify as an Organiser, you must have been a Participant in the minimum number of events stated on our Service.

You must not offer on our Service any event which has a commercial purpose or element or which is adult-themed.

You must comply with any other Organiser requirements on our Service (which we may change from time to time).

Even if you comply with the above requirements, we may nonetheless in our discretion decline to appoint you, or remove you, as an Organiser without notice and without giving any reasons.

Contract between Organisers and Participants

Organisers and Participants contract with each other on the following terms as well as on any other applicable terms in this agreement.

Organisers promise:

  1. to arrange and operate events in accordance with the highest standards reasonably to be expected;
  2. not charge Participants more for an event than the actual amount charged by the relevant event venue (in other words the Organiser must not make a profit) and otherwise to deal honestly with all funds received from Participants ;
  3. to ensure that the listing accurately describes the proposed event and includes all relevant information;
  4. to arrange any insurance which is reasonably required;
  5. to take reasonable care of Participants at events;
  6. to comply with all relevant laws and regulations; and
  7. not to infringe anyone else's rights in connection with the event.

Organisers and Participants agree to comply with the Money Pot requirements below.

An Organiser is entitled for any reason to hide an event from a particular User or to cancel any particular User's booking for the event (provided that the Organiser is not acting in an unlawfully discriminatory way).

Subject to the obligation of Organisers to stay within the law, Organisers are entitled to impose age and/or gender restrictions which Organisers genuinely think are necessary for their particular event and to refuse entry to any Participant who does not comply with those restrictions. The restrictions must be prominently stated in the event listing. Organisers must themselves comply with the restrictions.

Organisers are entitled to cancel their events at any time and for any reason. If so, they must promptly notify all Participants via the Service.

Participants promise that they possess the necessary social skills to participate appropriately in the events they select.

Organisers and Participants agree that they will deal with each other in a courteous and polite manner and that they will not engage in any abusive, threatening, drunken, antisocial or other inappropriate behaviour at the event.

Participants must not bring to events any dependents or persons who have not registered for the event.

Participants agree to comply with any request to provide proof of identity or age and to submit to security searches.

Organisers and Participants agree to comply with any rules or regulations or requirements of the event venue.

An Organiser is entitled to refuse entry to an event or require a Participant to leave an event if, acting reasonably, the Organiser considers that the Participant has broken the terms of this this agreement between the Organiser and Participant.

Organisers must only use any contact or other personal information supplied by Participants strictly in accordance with applicable data protection and other laws.

Money Pot escrow service

Where an Organiser is required to pay a deposit for an event, our Service may allow the Organiser to collect deposit payments from Participants by means of a third party escrow service described below as a "Money Pot".

As a condition of use of the Money Pot, Organisers and Participants agree to comply with the terms and conditions of our current Money Pot provider and to supply the relevant personal information required by the provider. We are not responsible for the operation of the Money Pot or for the activities of the provider.

The Organiser is entitled at any time to close the Money Pot and thereby release the funds to itself in order to enable it to pay the deposit to the event venue.

If the Organiser cancels the event before the Money Pot is closed, the funds in the Money Pot will be returned to the Participants in full. If the event is cancelled after closure of the Money Pot, then the Organiser is responsible for arranging prompt and full repayment of the deposit to each Participant

Any time until the Money Pot is closed, Participants may withdraw their deposit payments from the Money Pot subject to deduction of our 10% fee (which includes the fee payable to the Money Pot provider).

Organisers must use the Money Pot only for its intended purpose. Any suspected fraud will be referred to the police.

Our role

Organisers and Participants separately promise us that they will be bound by, and comply with, their contracts with each other as set out above. We are not a party to those contracts. Any legal recourse relating to an event is against the relevant Organiser or Participant and not against us.

We may at any time for any reason reject or remove any event from our Service without notice and without giving any reasons. If so, we shall close any Money Pot and any funds in it will be returned to the Participants in full.

We do not endorse any event. We do not hold deposits on behalf of Organisers and do not provide refunds. We do not investigate or supervise and are not responsible for events, Money Pots, Organisers or Participants. We do not promise that any event will take place or that it will be of any particular quality. Nor do we mediate disputes between Organisers and Participants (unless we choose to do so in our discretion). Participants participate in events at their own risk.

We do not guarantee that any event will achieve any particular level of bookings or attendance.

Payment

Unless otherwise stated on our Service (for example free trial events), you must be a subscriber to book and to attend events on our Service. Subscriptions can be acquired at the prices, for the periods and by the payment methods specified on our Service. Payment is in advance.

The prices shown on our website include VAT unless we say otherwise.

Where you agree, your subscription will continue to be auto-renewed for the same subscription period which you signed up to unless you cancel before the renewal date by following the instructions on our Service. You authorise us and our third party payment provider to charge your payment card for the relevant amounts when payments are due in accordance with this agreement.

We may at any time change our subscription prices. For existing subscribers, we will give you notice by email at least one month before any price change takes effect. If you do not accept the new fee, you should cancel your subscription as explained below. Otherwise the next renewal of your subscription after the one month's notice will be at the new price.

You must contact us immediately with full details if you dispute any payment.

Social Points

We offer social points for Organisers, which can be used to pay subscription fees. If you obtain points, you must check that they have been correctly credited to your account and tell us immediately if not.

You can only earn social points if you comply with the requirements for social points stated on our Service.

Points can only be used within our Service. We may at any time change the criteria to acquire points as well as the number of points awarded per event or the value of points as against your subscription.

Points do not have any inherent value and they are not your own private property. We do not provide any cash for points, which are for your personal use only. You must not sell or transfer them or make them available to anyone else or attempt to do so or encourage anyone else to do any of these things.

We may impose additional restrictions concerning the acquisition or use of points. For example we may cap the amount of points which can be acquired or used in any particular period.

We may restrict access to or delete points if the points were awarded in error. Points will be deleted if this agreement is cancelled for any reason.

We may at any time decide to end the entire points program.

Third party services / advertising / websites

We may use third party-provided services or display third party advertising within our Service and/or link to third party websites which may be of interest to you. We do not recommend or endorse, nor are we legally responsible for, those sites or services. You use them at your own risk.

Guidance by us

Any guidance or similar information which we ourselves make available on our Service is intended as very general guidance information but we cannot guarantee that it is accurate or up to date and we do not accept legal responsibility for it. Before acting on such information, you must make your own appropriate and careful enquiries including as to its accuracy and suitability for your purposes. You rely on such information at your own risk.

Your account on our Service is for your personal use only and is non-transferable. You must not authorise or permit any other person to use your account. You must take reasonable care to protect and keep confidential your password and other account or identity information. You must notify us immediately of any apparent breach of security such as loss, theft, misuse or unauthorised disclosure or use of a password. You are responsible for third parties who use your account or identity (unless and to the extent that we are at fault).

Suspension / cancellation

You may at any time cancel this agreement (including your subscription) by following the instructions on our Service. A request for cancellation under this clause does not give rise to any refund.

  1. We are entitled at any time to cancel this agreement by email notice without giving reasons. If so, we will refund in full any fees already paid which relate to the period after cancellation.

  3. We are entitled at any time (with or without notice and without giving reasons) to cancel this agreement or suspend part or all of our Service if we have reason to believe that you have breached our terms and conditions or if any fees due to us are unpaid / unjustifiably charged back or if it is necessary to protect us or others or if we are required to do so by law or appropriate authority. There will be no refund.

Following cancellation of this agreement: Your right to use our Service is terminated. Accrued rights and liabilities are unaffected.

You must give us a reasonable opportunity to remedy any matter for which we are potentially liable before you incur any costs remedying the matter yourself.

  1. there is no breach of a legal duty of care owed to you by us or by any of our employees or agents;
