PRVT Party: Venue Terms of Use
How to Use PRVT Party (“PRVT”)
Welcome to the PRVT Party venue network! The following is a brief summary of our services, how to access them through this Site, and the key rules governing your interactions with us and the event organizers with whom you communicate and who ultimately may elect to book space or time at your venue. You should also review our Legal Terms (part 2 of these Terms of Use) as they also set forth important rules and limitations relating to your use of our Site. When we refer to the “Site” under these Terms of Use we mean PRVT’s entire digital platform through which you interact with PRVT and with event organizer users to describe your venue, present your availability to event organizers, arrange bookings and receive payments for the same (when and as applicable). When we use the word “you” under these Terms of Use, we mean either a Venue who is participating in our network or an authorized administrator (“Venue Admin”) who is accessing the Site on behalf of a Venue.
Here's How Prvt Party Works:
Your Availability to Event Organizers
Each Venue that joins the PRVT network will have a listing that will be displayed within the PRVT event organizer-facing iOS app, and on any future event organizer-facing websites and/or Android apps, (collectively the “Event Organizer Site”). The content in each Venue’s listing will be driven by data that has been inputted into a Venue access website (“VA Site”). Each Venue will have its own independent log-in into the VA Site and will not have access to view or edit data for other Venues.
Most, but not all, of the data related to a particular Venue on the VA Site will be editable by that Venue’s Venue Admins (with the understanding that PRVT may assume that any individual accessing the VA Site with a valid Venue Admin email address and password has been properly authorized by such Venue to do so). The PRVT Super-Admin will have the ability and right to override any data on the Site. PRVT will also maintain some settings for each Venue that are not viewable by the Venues, such as active status, ratings on third-party services like Foursquare or Yelp, neighborhood designation, etc. PRVT will maintain a customer relationship management database with other Venue-specific data not viewable on the VA Site.
If a venue does not have an onsite liquor, beer or wine (“Alcoholic Beverage”) sales or service operation and the serving of Alcoholic Beverages are not prohibited at such venue, PRVT may display one or more recommended Alcoholic Beverage catering and serving operations in conjunction with the venue’s profile on the Event Organizer Site. PRVT may charge a commission to such catering and staffing operation for any bookings organized via the Site. Likewise, if there is no onsite food service operation at a venue and if food is not prohibited at such venue, PRVT may display one or more recommended food catering and serving operations in conjunction with the venue’s profile on the Event Organizer Site. PRVT may charge a commission for any bookings organized via the Site.
Event organizer users will access the PRVT platform via the “Event Organizer Site. When an event organizer using the Event Organizer Site submits a booking inquiry to a Venue, the Venue will receive an email asking it to log on to the VA Site to respond to the request. Venue partners must agree to respond to requests as quickly as possible, but not later than 24 hours after receipt of the inquiry. Failure to provide prompt responses to inquiries and follow-up questions may be grounds for removal from the platform.
A Venue and a prospective event organizer can exchange messages to finalize the booking details (dates, times, areas within the Venue, special requests, food orders, open bar sales, etc.). Once finalized, the Venue will need to submit an offer to the event organizer (the “Sent Offer”) with all details shown. Based on your inputs, our system will generate a detailed summary showing all costs that the event organizer must pay, all fees being charged by PRVT, as well as information about cancellations and cancellation fees (see more information below). You should review the offer details carefully to make sure you understand what the event organizer client is obligated to pay, and what fees PRVT is charging to facilitate the booking.
Once this Sent Offer is received and accepted by the Event Organizer, it will become a booked event in the system. You understand that PRVT will assume without further inquiry, unless it is manifestly obvious not to be the case, that the individual interacting without event organizers on your behalf, making commitments regarding events and negotiating and receiving payments relating to the same has been properly authorized by you to perform all such actions. You agree that this booking will honored like any business contract, and will only be cancelled by you in the event of an emergency, such as a sustained power outage or natural disaster.
Note that Venue Admins will not be auto-logged off the VA Site, even if there is a cessation of use for an extended period of time. To log off, they will have to do so manually by clicking on the Log-out link on the Site. If the device being used to access the VA Site is shared among multiple users, please make sure that all authorized Venue Admins understand that they should log-off after each use session.
How Event Organizers Will Find and Interact with You
Event Organizers seeking an appropriate venue for an event may search Pvt Party’s network of event venues for the right spot. Venues available through PRVT will include dedicated event spaces, beverage-focused venues (e.g., bars, lounges), dining venues (e.g., restaurants), and activities-focused venues (e.g., bowling, karaoke, etc.), or of course some combination of the foregoing. As discussed above, event organizers may (1) send requests to multiple venues, (2) negotiate terms with each Venue, (3) receive an offer from Venues and (4) then accept such offers. Accepting an offer may obligate the event organizer to pay certain fees, some of which may be payable at the time of booking and some which may be payable directly at the Venue. Venues are required to display their fees directly on their profiles or in a Sent Offer (with the latter taking precedence), and event organizers will be encouraged to review any offer received to ensure that they understand the fees being charged by the Venue.
In using the Site event organizers will be able to make the following kinds of reservation requests of venues, or some combination of the following kinds of reservation requests, depending on the Venue:
- “Free” Booking: event organizers do not pay anything to the venue simply for the reservation (with the expectation being that the event organizer and his or her guests will spend money at the Venue, e.g., drinks from a cash bar, food à la carte or activities). Under this booking, event organizers will be expected to bring at least the number of guests specified in their Offer; if they deviate from this number of guests by more than 50% (percentage subject to change), they may be subject to a cancellation fee or disqualification from further use of the Site.
- Rental Fee Booking:: event organizers pay an hourly, daily or flat fee to the applicable venue (collected by PRVT at the time of reservation and subject to a 15% commission on the fee payable to PRVT) for a booking during reserved time. The Venue may choose the portion of the payment required upfront (the “Initial Payment”), specified as a percentage, but such Initial Payment must be between 5% and 100% of the total offered rental fee due. The Venue can also set the number of future payments and their due dates required from the event organizer to fulfill the full rental fee payment obligation. All rental fee payments must be collected by PRVT. PRVT will pay out to the Venue the net rental fee owed to the Venue, less the PRVT commission of 15%, within 2-3 days of PRVT’s collection of such payment, provided that the Venue has a Stripe account and that their Stripe credentials have been provided on the VA Site. If the Venue does not have a Stripe account, PRVT will pay out the net rental fees via PayPal or check, at the Venue’s discretion.
- Open Bar Booking: if a venue has an onsite liquor sales operation, event organizers and a venue may agree to a booking in which the event organizer purchases an open bar for a specified time period for a set number of people. Fees for this booking shall be collected directly by the Venue (possibly before the event, but often at the event itself). Event organizers will be informed that when they accept a booking Offer for an Open Bar booking, they will – upon such acceptance – be legally responsible for fees payable to the venue for this type of booking. If, for any reason, an event organizer defaults on any such payment obligation he or she may be subject to – in addition to the open bar fee which was the subject of the default – a cancellation fee. PRVT collects a 10% commission on the pre-tax, pre-gratuity amount of the Open Bar sale agreed to by the event organizer.
- Minimum Spend – Food/Beverage/Staff Booking: if a venue has an onsite catering operation, event organizers and the venue may agree to a minimum dollar amount with the venue in order to secure a booking. Like the Open Bar booking, event organizers will be informed that when they accept an Offer for a Minimum Spend booking they will – upon such acceptance – be legally responsible for fees payable to the Venue for this type of booking. If, for any reason, an event organizer defaults on any such payment obligation he or she may be subject to – in addition to the minimum spend commitment which was the subject of the default – a cancellation fee.
Importantly, once an event organizer has engaged with you through the Site relating to a proposed event, e.g., by having contacted you regarding such event as a result of a search on the Site, having received an Offer from you relating to such event or otherwise discussing such event with you, the event, including any “up-sells” relating to the same (for example, modifying a booking to include additional food or beverage expenditures), must be booked through the Site and in no event between you and any event organizer who has so engaged with you independent of the Site. PRVT intends to use commercially reasonable means to monitor the foregoing to ensure compliance.
Additional Fees; Security Deposits
In addition to the fees outlined above, Venues reserve the right to charge additional fees to cover staff and materials for event clean-up, preparation, security or serving of outside food or beverages (such as dessert, outside wine, etc.), in each case as long as the Venue enumerated such fees in its Offer to the event organizer (under appropriate headings such as “plating fees”, “corkage fees”, doorman reimbursements”, “clean-up fees”, etc). Any such additional fees will be paid directly by the event organizer to the Venue. Venues may also require a security deposit, which may be paid directly to the Venue or collected by PRVT, at the venue’s discretion, to protect the Venue against damage during the event, as long as the Venue (1) has enumerated such requirement in its written Offer to the event organizer and (2) has first obtained PRVT’s prior written approval for the same via an email from [email protected]. To be clear any such security deposits are for property damage only and unrelated to and not to be applied to satisfy any Cancellation Fee due from an event organizer; Cancellation Fees are intended by PRVT to replace any requirement for a Security Deposit relating to cancellation. Venues may also require event organizers to provide proof of insurance covering the event, again provided that such requirement is conveyed in writing to the event organizer in the written Offer.
Your Obligations to Event Organizers and Rights of the Event Organizer
PRVT is committed to providing its event organizer clients with a high-quality experience. Accordingly, Venues will be held to certain conduct standards as follows:
- You agree to honor a booked reservation except in case of emergencies (property damage, power outage, extreme weather, etc.). Under no circumstances will you be permitted to cancel an event because you have a more lucrative or otherwise more desirable booking opportunity.
- You agree to provide adequate staffing for the expected attendance at the event.
- You agree to prepare and clean the space to its normal level of preparation prior to the event, and to make sure that the preparation work is complete at least 30 minutes before the scheduled start time.
- If you set up your Venue listing to show that “Outside Decoration is Allowed”, you must provide access prior to the event for the event organizer to install such decorations if requested by event organizer (you may charge a nominal fee for allowing such option, but must state the fee up front in the Offer).
- If you set up your Venue listing to show that “Outside Birthday Cake is Allowed” and an event organizer requests this option, you must provide instructions to event organizers that include outside food guidelines, e.g., regarding cutlery, plates, forks, etc., in the Offer.
- You will not discriminate against event organizers or their guests on the basis of race, creed, gender, sexual preference, religion or disability.
- You will use commercially reasonable means, consistent with standards in the industry, to guard against underage drinking at any event; and, in no event will you knowingly serve alcoholic beverages to minors.
Cancellations
If a venue so elects, it may offer a full-refund cancellation window as a component of its Sent Offer. Specifically, if cancellation occurs within the window, all previously paid fees relating to an event will be refunded to the event organizer and any event organizer commitments to the Venue, e.g., for Minimum Spends or Open Bar expenditures, will be VAided. You will specify the cancellation window when you send an Offer. If the Event Organizer cancels after the cancellation window has closed, or simply doesn’t show up for an event, a Cancellation Fee will be due. Such Cancellation Fees will be subject to a fee split with PRVT. PRVT will take a 15% commission, to be deducted from any Cancellation Fees or forfeited rental fees collected by PRVT in conjunction with a booking.
PRVT’s technology cannot account for situations where an event organizer’s card is invalid at time of charging, or if the card is over-the-limit. Accordingly, PRVT cannot be held responsible for failing to collect a Cancellation Fee in certain circumstances.
Limitations of Service
There are certain limitations applicable to your use of the Site which we want to set forth below, in addition to the more general limitations set forth below in the Legal Terms below. Namely, in using PRVT you acknowledge and agree as follows:
- PRVT shall provide you with limited support via e-mail and chat on the day of an event, but we are not responsible for any shortcomings by or the behavior of the event organizer or any of its guests, including event organizer no-shows or damages, whether in the form of property or bodily harm, relating to your premises, employees or other personnel. In short, YOU BOOK EVENT ORGANIZERS AND ALLOW ACCESS TO THEM AND THEIR GUESTS AT YOUR OWN RISK; ONCE AN EVENT IS BOOKED THROUGH OUR SITE WE TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITY AND ASSUME NO LIABILITY WHATSOEVER FOR THE EVENT ITSELF OR ANY DAMAGES TO YOUR PREMISES, EMPLOYEES OR OTHER PERSONNEL ARISING FROM THE EVENT. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, as a condition of the use of the Site, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless PRVT and its affiliates and their respective partners, members, managers, directors, officers, agents, consultants and employees (collectively, “Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all liabilities, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of investigation) and damages arising out of claims against any Indemnified Party by any event organizer or any of his or her guests relating to or arising from any event accommodated in your venue by you.
- In the case of private venues, you're expected to provide access to event organizers to inspect your space so they may determine its suitability for their event upon reasonable notice. Of course, you may require that any such visits are limited to times that are reasonably convenient for you.
- In making your Venue available to event organizers through PRVT, you are representing and warranting to PRVT Party and to such event organizers that you maintain adequate insurance coverage (casualty and liability) relating to your premises and events therein consistent with standards generally in your industry and the types of events you typically book.
- AS BETWEEN YOU AND PRVT, YOU HAVE SOLE RESPONSIBILITY FOR EVENTS WHICH ARE BOOKED THROUGH OUR SERVICE. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, AS BETWEEN YOU AND PRVT YOU RELEASE PRVT FROM AND WAIVE ANY AND ALL CLAIMS AGAINST PRVT RELATING TO OR ARISING FROM ANY EVENT BOOKED THROUGH OUR SERVICE, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY CLAIMS FOR CONTRIBUTION, IN EACH CASE EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT ANY LIABILITY IS CAUSED BY PRVT’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT. WITHOUT LIMITING THE GENERALITY OF THE FOREGOING, TO THE EXTENT ANY LIABILITY TO AN EVENT ORGANIZER OR A GUEST AT ANY EVENT ARISES FOR ANY REASON, SUCH LIABILITY SHALL BE BORNE SOLELY BY YOU EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT SUCH LIABILITY ARISES FROM PRVT’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT.
