3. Event Organizers

You must be legally able to organize the event that you create on our site. You must accurately describe your event and all terms, including cancellation and refund policies. You are obligated as the organizer to complete the transaction with the registering user. Without limiting any other remedies, we may suspend or terminate your account if we suspect that you have engaged in fraudulent activity in connection with our site or your event. Event organizer personally identifying data is stored indefinitely unless PlanetReg is notified of the intent to close the associated user account.

PlanetReg is a for fee service. If your event is a free event, you may operate it using PlanetReg for no fee. Free events are ad supported, so you will see ads on your event registration form. This (ad supported) feature is limited to one free event open at a time. You may have multiple free open events, additional free events may be opened by turning off ads for subsequent events. There is a fee for turning off ads - the current fee is .50 per checkout, but may be changed at any time. Any user who attempts to circumvent the one free (ad supported) event open per account by opening additional accounts may have all of their accounts suspended.

PlanetReg may restrict the quantity of registrations on free, ad supported, events in Basic mode. This restriction may be removed by either purchase of a 'free event' subscription, or by Swicthing to Pro mode for registrations beyond the quantity limit. Any user who attempts to circumvent the quantity limit may have all of their accounts suspended.

Hemko Systems Corporation, the provider of the service known as PlanetReg, will maintain all applicable PCI DSS requirements to the extent it possesses or otherwise stores, processes, or transmits cardholder data on behalf of the organizer.

If your event has a cost/charge yet you setup the event on PlanetReg in a manner that removes the cost/charge from the registration form(thereby circumventing the PlanetReg service fees), we reserve the right to suspend your usage of the service until full payment is made for all past registrations where a service fee would have been applied.

PlanetReg will invoice you on a periodic basis for these fees. Some fees are one time fees that you and PlanetReg agree to. For example, custom event set up or connection to your merchant credit card account are actions performed by PlanetReg on an agreed to basis and the related fees charged are one time and are agreed upon by you and PlanetReg in advance. By using the service you agree to pay the applicable fees. If the fees are not paid in a timely manner, we reserve the right to terminate your usage of the service. If you utilize the PlanetReg service in such manner as to avoid the PlanetReg service fees, we reserve the right to terminate your usage of the service. PlanetReg does provide free use of the service for events that are entirely free to the registrants. Not all features may be available to users of the free service.

You, as an event organizer, agree that fees charged for PlanetReg services are due when invoiced. Should you fail to pay the invoiced PlanetReg fees in a timely manner, we reserve the right to:
a. suspend your account
b. terminate your account
c. cancel the event registrations

You, as an event organizer, own the data collected on the event definitions you define in PlanetReg, and the data collected from event attendees related to those event definitions. You, as an event organizer, determine the necessary retention of data in relation to the purpose for which it is collected. Excepting a GDPR/CCPA request by individual for removal of identifying information, this data is available for a minimum of two years after the event definition creation date or until account suspension or termination. After such time, extended event definition data and attendee data may be purged from the PlanetReg service.

4. Event Attendees

By registering for an event, you agree that PlanetReg does not provide any type of refund for any event. PlanetReg is simply a software tool used by event organizers to process registrations. Accordingly, you must contact the event organizer to seek a refund.

5. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold PlanetReg, and its subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, agents, co-branders or other partners, and employees, harmless from any claim or demand, including reasonable attorneys' fees, made by any third party due to or arising out of information you submit, post, transmit or make available through the Services, your use of our services, your connection to the services, your violation of the TOS, or your violation of any rights of another.
