Website Terms of Use – Consumer

This website (“Site”) is owned and operated by Ticketebo Pty Ltd (ACN 164 529 944) trading as Ticketebo ("Ticketebo"). Throughout these User Terms, the terms “Ticketebo”, “we”, “us” and “our” refer to Ticketebo and its associated entities and “you” refers to the individual accessing the Site.

These terms and conditions govern the relationship between you and Ticketebo. There may be additional terms and conditions imposed by an event organiser or venue operator in respect of an event for which you purchase tickets. It is your responsibility to review these terms prior to the purchase of tickets.

Please read these terms of use carefully. By visiting the Site and purchasing tickets and/or registrations you are agreeing to be bound by the following terms (“Terms”) and by the Ticketebo Privacy Policy [https://www.ticketebo.com.au/privacy-policy/]. You must not use or access the Site or deal with the tickets you purchase in violation of these Terms. If you choose not to be bound by the Terms then you must not use the Site or purchase tickets from the Site.

Ticketebo may vary these Terms at any time and will post the variations on this Site. By continuing to use the Site after the varied terms are posted, you agree to be bound by the variation.

1.  Who we are and what we do

1.1.  Ticketebo facilitates the sale of tickets and membership registrations by organisers by allowing them to create an event page on the Site from which tickets or registrations can be purchased by you (“event page”), and giving organisers access to a secure payment gateway. As such, except as specified in these Terms, we are not liable for any dispute over an event or a ticket purchase.
1.2.  Details of the event organiser can be found on each event page. Each ticket is issued subject to the terms and conditions of the event organiser and/or the venue at which the event is held.
1.3.  We have no control over ticket prices, postage and handling fees or ticket delivery methods.
1.4.  You acknowledge that Ticketebo acts as an agent for the relevant event organiser.  Any claims with respect to purchase of tickets or membership registrations (including cancellation or postponement of events) lie solely with the event organiser and to the extent permitted by law Ticketebo takes no responsibility or liability for such claims.

2.  Purchasing tickets or registrations

When you make a purchase from the Site you acknowledge and agree that:
2.1.  All information you provide is true, accurate, and complete and will be maintained and kept up to date.
2.2.  It is your sole responsibility to maintain the confidentiality of any password you create for accessing content on the Site or in the course of purchasing tickets.
2.3.  You may only buy a maximum of 10 tickets for each event unless expressly authorised otherwise by the event organiser.  The reselling of tickets is strictly prohibited. Tickets found to be resold may be cancelled without a refund and the bearer refused entry.
2.4.  We reserve the right to cancel any ticket and refund the amount paid where there has been an error in ticket pricing (whether due to human error or a transactional malfunction of the Site).
2.5.  The event organiser has the right to add, withdraw or substitute artists, other than the primary artist, use understudies, vary the advertised program, seating arrangements and audience capacity and deny admission with reasonable cause including due to intoxication, unsociable behaviour, failing to observe lawful directions, possession of invalid or insufficient tickets or ID or health and safety precautions.
2.6.  You are responsible for collecting the tickets in accordance with the delivery method chosen by you. No refunds or exchanges are provided for lost or stolen deliveries or for a failure on your part to collect (including to produce sufficient proof of identity to collect), sign for or print the tickets. It is your responsibility to allow adequate time for the delivery of tickets.

3.  Payment

3.1.  All credit card purchases are processed through our secure online payment system. The event organiser determines how you may pay for tickets and registrations.
3.2.  Tickets purchased on the Site are subject to a non-refundable per order booking fee which may, at the option of the event organiser, either be identified separately to you or included in the ticket price. In some cases, delivery prices and credit card surcharges will also be clearly identified and charged.
3.3.  Unless stated to be otherwise, charges referred to for any tickets or registrations supplied via the Site are stated inclusive of GST. A tax invoice will be provided to you upon completing your purchase of tickets. GST means the Australian goods and services tax charged under the A New Tax System (Goods and Services Tax) Act 1999. Tax Invoice means tax invoice as defined by the Act.
3.4.  All prices are stated in Australian dollars.

4.  Cancelled, varied or postponed Events

4.1.  Sometimes events are cancelled, varied or postponed by the event organiser due to situations which affect the performer, staff or audience. Unless otherwise stated, the event organiser will offer a comparable ticket at a varied or rescheduled event, or a refund for cancelled events. Proof of purchase may be required. The event organiser is solely responsible and liable for providing any refund or comparable ticket.
4.2.  So that the event organiser can contact you with information relating to your tickets or the event, we may be required to pass on your contact information. We do not authorise the event organiser to send you any unsolicited emails, mail or “spam”.
4.3.  We and the event organiser will use reasonable endeavours to notify ticket holders of a cancellation, variation or postponement; however the responsibility to ascertain whether an event has been cancelled, varied or postponed is yours. We do not guarantee that ticket holders will be informed of a cancellation, variation or postponement before the date of the event.
4.4.  In the event of a cancellation, the ticket price will be refunded on to the credit card you used to purchase the relevant tickets. To the extent permitted by law, any booking fees paid by you will not be refunded.

5.  Exchanges and refunds

5.1.  All ticket sales are final. No exchange or refund will be given except in the case of a cancelled or rescheduled event as set out in the LPA Code of Practice (see section 4). For clarification, you are not entitled to a refund if:

5.1.1.  You are not satisfied with the event;
5.1.2.  You are no longer able to attend the event (but you can give your ticket to someone else to use);
5.1.3.  You arrive late or are refused entry; or
5.1.4.  There is a change in support act.

5.2.  If your ticket is lost, stolen or damaged (including if it is lost in the mail), we are not required to replace it unless we can identify the seat corresponding to the ticket, or in the case of a general admission ticket can identify and cancel the relevant ticket. We may charge a reasonable administration fee in these circumstances.
