  1. CONTROLS FOR DO-NOT-TRACK FEATURES

 Most web browsers and some mobile operating systems and mobile applications include a Do-Not-Track (“DNT”) feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected. At this stage no uniform technology standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals has been finalized. As such, we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online. If a standard for online tracking is adopted that we must follow in the future, we will inform you about that practice in a revised version of this privacy notice.

Verification process

Upon receiving your request, we will need to verify your identity to determine you are the same person about whom we have the information in our system. These verification efforts require us to ask you to provide information so that we can match it with information you have previously provided us. For instance, depending on the type of request you submit, we may ask you to provide certain information so that we can match the information you provide with the information we already have on file, or we may contact you through a communication method (e.g. phone or email) that you have previously provided to us. We may also use other verification methods as the circumstances dictate.

We will only use personal information provided in your request to verify your identity or authority to make the request. To the extent possible, we will avoid requesting additional information from you for the purposes of verification. If, however, if we cannot verify your identity from the information already maintained by us, we may request that you provide additional information for the purposes of verifying your identity, and for security or fraud-prevention purposes. We will delete such additionally provided information as soon as we finish verifying you.

GOVERNING LAW

These Terms shall be governed by and defined following the laws of the State of California and yourself irrevocably consent that the courts of  California shall have exclusive jurisdiction to resolve any dispute which may arise in connection with these terms.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION

 

Binding Arbitration

If the parties are unable to resolve a dispute through informal negotiations, the dispute (except those disputes expressly excluded below) will be finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT WITHOUT THIS PROVISION, YOU WOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL. The arbitration shall be commenced and conducted under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) and, where appropriate, the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (“AAA Consumer Rules”), both of which are available at the AAA website www.adr.org. Your arbitration fees and your share of arbitrator compensation shall be governed by the AAA Consumer Rules and, where appropriate, limited by the AAA Consumer Rules. The arbitration may be conducted in person, through the submission of documents, by phone, or online. The arbitrator will make a decision in writing, but need not provide a statement of reasons unless requested by either Party. The arbitrator must follow applicable law, and any award may be challenged if the arbitrator fails to do so. Except where otherwise required by the applicable AAA rules or applicable law, the arbitration will take place in Los Angeles County in California. Except as otherwise provided herein, the parties may litigate in court to compel arbitration, stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate, or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.

If for any reason, a dispute proceeds in court rather than arbitration, the dispute shall be commenced or prosecuted in the state and federal courts located in Los Angeles County in California, and the parties hereby consent to, and waive all defenses of lack of personal jurisdiction, and forum non conveniens with respect to venue and jurisdiction in such state and federal courts. Application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods and the Uniform Computer Information Transaction Act (UCITA) are excluded from these Terms of Use.

In no event shall any dispute brought by either party related in any way to the Site be commenced more than one (1) year after the cause of action arose. If this provision is found to be illegal or unenforceable, then neither party will elect to arbitrate any dispute falling within that portion of this provision found to be illegal or unenforceable and such dispute shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within the courts listed for jurisdiction above, and the parties agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.

Restrictions

The Parties agree that any arbitration shall be limited to the Dispute between the Parties individually. To the full extent permitted by law, (a) no arbitration shall be joined with any other proceeding; (b) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be arbitrated on a class-action basis or to utilize class action procedures; and (c) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public or any other persons.

Exceptions to Arbitration

The Parties agree that the following Disputes are not subject to the above provisions concerning binding arbitration: (a) any Disputes seeking to enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of, any of the intellectual property rights of a Party; (b) any Dispute related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use; and (c) any claim for injunctive relief. If this provision is found to be illegal or unenforceable, then neither Party will elect to arbitrate any Dispute falling within that portion of this provision found to be illegal or unenforceable and such Dispute shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within the courts listed for jurisdiction above, and the Parties agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.

CORRECTIONS

There may be information on the Site that contains typographical errors, inaccuracies, or omissions, including descriptions, pricing, availability, and various other information.

These Exhibit Space Contract Additional Terms and Conditions supplement the terms and conditions set forth in the attached Sponsorship and Festival Marketing Terms and Conditions and the Sponsorship Agreement executed by Organizer. Any sponsorship opportunity contracted for by Sponsor (referred to herein as “Exhibitor”) in connection with the 2022 ReWired Festival in-person event (referred to herein as the “Festival”) is governed by the Sponsorship and Festival Marketing Terms and Conditions, the Sponsorship Agreement and these Exhibit Space Contract Additional Terms and Conditions.

1. ELIGIBLE EXHIBITS. Organizer reserves the right to determine whether any company or product is eligible for inclusion in the Festival. This determination may be made at any time before or after the start of the Festival. Exhibitor or its agent/agency must have no outstanding past due invoices with Organizer or its affiliates. Past due invoices billed to the exhibitor or its agent/agency must be paid before exhibitor will be allowed access to the Festival.

2. FLOOR PLAN. The floor plan for the Festival will be maintained as originally presented, wherever practicable. However, Organizer reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to modify the floor plan to the extent necessary for the best interests of the Festival, the exhibitors, and the industry. All measurements shown on the floor plan are approximate, and Organizer reserves the right to make such modifications as may be deemed necessary, making equitable adjustment for any exhibitor thereby affected.

3. EXHIBIT SPACE ASSIGNMENT. Space assignment will be indicated on the confirmation of acceptance of the Sponsorship Agreement by Organizer. Exhibitor may have an opportunity to be placed on a Wait List for an alternative location on the Festival floor. All requests must be made through an Account Manager. Exhibitor must have space contracted and appropriate payment received to be moved in accordance with the Wait List request. Exhibitor must rent sufficient space to contain its exhibit completely within the confines of the booth lines. Equipment may not extend into the aisles, over the aisles, or across Exhibitor’s purchased booth line. Heights and depths specified in applicable Sponsorship Agreement must be observed. Organizer reserves the right to relocate Exhibitor in comparable space for the best interest of the Festival. In the event of relocation, Exhibitor will be advised in writing and given the option of selecting another location with an equivalent value. If for any reason, an alternative location cannot be provided, Exhibitor’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be a refund of the unearned portion of the Sponsorship fee; provided, however, that Organizer’s liability for any error or failure to provide the exhibit space shall in no event exceed a refund of the amounts actually paid by Exhibitor hereunder.

4. SHARING/SUBLETTING SPACE. Exhibitor shall not assign, sublet, subcontract or apportion the whole or any part of the space allotted, and may not share exhibit space or allow representatives, equipment, or materials from any subsidiary, division, or any other company or entity in Exhibitor’s space without including the name(s) of such subsidiary, division or other company or entity on the Sponsorship Agreement and obtaining the prior written consent of Organizer. Should Exhibitor decide to cancel, the exhibit space reverts back to Organizer.

5. EXHIBITOR SHOW BOOK AND FESTIVAL POLICIES. A Festival Show Book containing detailed information will be available and provided to Exhibitor by ReWired selected third party exhibition vendor. The Festival Show Book will contain, among other things, information regarding shipment, labor, electrical service, rental items and exhibit hours. All services, such as furniture, carpeting, labor, cleaning, storage of boxes and crates, shipping and other special services must be arranged through the official TWE exhibit services contractor. Exhibitor must abide by the regulations and guidelines included in the Festival Show Book. Organizer shall have sole control over the official Festival policies applicable to attendees, which will be available on the Festival website.

6. INSTALLATION AND DISMANTLING OF EXHIBITS. Delivery of freight and installation of exhibits will take place on the dates and at the times specified on your Eventival Visitor Page portal. Organizer reserves the right to resell the exhibit space if the exhibitor booth is not set up by the date and time specified in the Eventival Visitor Page preceding Festival floor opening. Organizer reserves the right to have the official exhibit services contractor install the exhibit or remove unopened freight at the expense of the Exhibitor. Exhibitor accepts full and sole responsibility for any injury or damage to persons or property resulting from failure to distribute the placement of its exhibit material in accordance with the floor loading specifications. Dismantling may not begin until the close of the Festival on the final day of the Festival. Goods and materials used in any display shall not be removed from the festival grounds until the Festival has officially closed. Any exception to this rule must have the written approval of Organizer. Dismantling must be completed and all exhibit materials removed by the final move-out date and hour set forth in the Festival Show Book. Exhibitor is advised to remove small, portable items immediately upon conclusion of the Festival.

7. DISPLAYS AND ATTIRE. It is Exhibitor’s responsibility to create an attractive display area that is in good taste (as determined by Organizer) and enhances the overall appearance of the Festival and is a credit to the industry. Organizer reserves the right to approve the character of the display and to prohibit any display which, because of noise or other objectionable features, detracts from the general character of the Festival. Any part of an exhibit space which does not reflect the purpose of the Festival must be corrected at the Exhibitor’s expense. Organizer reserves the unilateral right to correct any unsightly exhibit, and Exhibitor agrees to pay for expenses incurred in making the necessary alterations. If corrections cannot be made, the exhibit shall be removed at Exhibitor’s cost, with no liability accruing to Organizer.

Exhibit Design. All booth furnishings, including audio and video, should be appropriate for a general audience and should not be offensive or violate common decency. In the event of a complaint about a booth’s content, Organizer will investigate. If content is determined to be offensive or inappropriate, the Exhibitor must cease use of such content.

Attire. Organizer reserves the right to determine appropriate Exhibitor/presenter attire and manner. Exhibitors and their personnel should present a professional image and appearance. If for any reason the attire of Exhibitor’s personnel is deemed inappropriate by Organizer, the Exhibitor may be asked to make suitable changes to the attire of its employees, exhibit staff and/or models. If necessary, the Exhibitor may be asked to remove individual(s) wearing the inappropriate attire in question at Exhibitor’s sole expense. Exhibitors with questions about compliance with these guidelines should consult Organizer in advance of the Festival.

8. DEMONSTRATIONS. Exhibitor shall observe the “good neighbor” policy at all times and not intrude upon or disrupt other exhibitors while they are conducting business on the Festival floor. Exhibits should be conducted in a manner not objectionable or offensive to neighboring booths. All demonstrations and the use of photographers, musicians, entertainers, loud speakers, sound system equipment and noise-making devices must be restricted to within the Exhibitor’s booth, unless it has express prior written authorization. Entertaining attendees in booths must be arranged so that Exhibitor’s personnel and attendees do not block aisles or overlap into neighboring exhibits. Operation of any equipment for demonstration purposes must be pre-approved in writing by Organizer. Organizer reserves the right to determine when any demonstrations become objectionable or interfere with adjacent exhibit spaces and may, if necessary, require that they be discontinued.

9. SOUND. Disruption or noise level from any demonstration or sound system must be kept to a minimum and may not interfere with others. The use of devices for mechanical reproduction of sound or music is permitted (up to 85 decibels), but must be controlled and not be projected outside the confines of the exhibit booth. No noise makers or anything not in keeping with the character and high standards of the Festival may be distributed or used by Exhibitor in the exhibit area. Organizer reserves the right to determine at what point a disruption or sound level constitutes interference with other exhibits and must be discontinued.

10. PHOTOS AND VIDEOS. Exhibitor may take photos or videos of its displays; however, Exhibitor is not permitted to directly take pictures of any other display or instruct others to take such pictures without written permission of Organizer and the exhibitor whose display is being photographed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Exhibitor authorizes Organizer and its Representatives (as defined in Section 19 below) to photograph and/or record all or any part of the Festival (including, without limitation, incidental inclusion of Exhibitor’s exhibit space and personnel), and Exhibitor hereby grants Organizer the worldwide, perpetual, royalty free right and license to reproduce, distribute, transmit, publicly perform and publicly display all such photographs and recordings (and any derivative works thereof) in any medium (now existing or hereafter developed) during the Term (as defined in the Sponsorship and Festival Marketing Terms and Conditions) and for a period of six (6) months thereafter. Organizer’s license hereunder shall expire at the end of the Term; however, Sponsor understands and agrees that Organizer may photograph and/or record all or any part of the 2022 Event and Sponsor understands that such recordings may contain incidental inclusion of the Sponsor Licensed Marks and Organizer shall have the worldwide, perpetual, royalty free right to reproduce, distribute, transmit, publicly perform and publicly display all such photographs and recordings.

11. SAMPLES, PUBLICATIONS, PRIZES, LIST ACCESS. Samples, giveaways, catalogues, pamphlets, souvenirs, industry publications and printed matter or promotional material of any kind may be distributed by Exhibitor and its representatives (including hosts and hostesses) only within the confines of its booth, with the exception only of designated sponsorships and marketing opportunities for which exhibitor has contracted with Organizer. Exhibitor may not conduct any prize drawings or awards for signing of names and addresses without the prior written approval of Organizer. Organizer reserves the right to limit access to lists of attendees and exhibitors and any other list or information gathered by Organizer or its contractors.

We require that all RF participants-attendees, organizers, sponsors, exhibitors, speakers, media, staff and volunteers agree to abide by the following Code of Conduct Rules.

Please wear your event badge at all times during the festival.  Please be prepared to show proof of age and identification when entering the Event or any program at the Event. We will only accept the following forms of identification: government-issued driver’s licenses or identification cards, passports, or military identification.

We believe our community should be truly open for everyone.  As such, we are committed to providing a friendly, safe, and harassment-free festival experience for all participants-attendees, organizers, sponsors, exhibitors, speakers, media, staff, and volunteers-regardless of gender, gender identity, age, sexual orientation, familial or marital status, disability, mental and/or physical ability, physical appearance, national origin, ethnicity, race, political affiliation or religion.

We do not tolerate harassment of festival participants in any form. Sexual language and imagery, unwelcome sexual attention, verbal threats or demands, offensive comments, discriminatory jokes and language, intimidation, stalking, threats of violence, sustained disruption of sessions or events, and unwelcome physical contact or advocating for or encouraging any of the above behavior — all are not appropriate for any conference venue.

Participants asked to stop any harassing behavior or perceived harassing behavior are expected to comply immediately. Exhibitors in the expo hall, sponsor or vendor booths, or similar activities are also subject to the anti-harassment policy.

In particular, exhibitors should not use sexualized images, activities, or other material. Booth staff (including volunteers) should not use sexualized clothing/uniforms, or otherwise create a sexualized environment.

Event Staff will be available to help participants contact venue security or local law enforcement, to provide escorts, or to otherwise assist those experiencing unacceptable behavior to feel safe for the duration of the conference. You can report unacceptable behavior to any member of staff.  All violations of the law should be reported to local law enforcement. For emergencies, immediately dial 9-1-1.
