User-generated content (UGC) refers to any material—such as text, images, videos, and other forms of media—that users upload, publish, or display on the Events Gear platform. Ownership of such content remains with the user who created it.

However, by uploading content to the platform, users grant Events Gear a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, translate, create derivative works from, distribute, perform, and display such content solely for the purpose of operating, promoting, and improving our services. This license continues even if a user stops using our services solely to maintain the historical continuity of discussions and event planning.
6.3 Intellectual Property Rights and Infringement Policies:
Events Gear respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects its users to do the same. The platform has implemented policies to address claims of copyright or intellectual property infringement that respect the rights of copyright owners while also protecting the rights of users to share legally owned content:
i. Notification Procedure for Claims of Infringement: If you believe that your work has been copied in a way that constitutes copyright infringement or that your intellectual property rights have been otherwise violated, you are encouraged to notify us. The notification should include your contact information, a description of the copyrighted work or other intellectual property that you claim has been infringed, a description of where the infringing material is located on our platform, a statement by you that you have a good faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law, and a statement by you, made under penalty of perjury, that the information in your notification is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on the copyright owner’s behalf.

9.1 Disclosure of Third-Party Services and Links
To ensure a seamless, secure, and high-performing user experience, Events Gear integrates several third-party service providers across different areas of the platform. These providers are carefully selected for their compliance, reliability, and ability to help us deliver a trusted and efficient marketplace.
The key third-party services include:
i. Cloud Services:
We use cloud infrastructure to securely store user and vendor data, ensuring high availability, fast access, and reliable backups across the platform.
ii. App Security Services:
Security tools and protocols are embedded through third-party solutions to prevent unauthorised access, detect threats, and protect all user data from malware, hacking, or cyber intrusion.
iii. SMS Services:
For user authentication and profile verification, Events Gear partners with trusted SMS providers. These services help confirm user identity and maintain a secure registration process.
iv. Payment Gateway Services:
We have partnered with licensed and compliant payment gateway providers to handle subscription payments and other financial transactions securely. All payment processing is encrypted and handled externally through these providers, and Events Gear does not store sensitive financial data such as card details.
Please note that by interacting with these services (e.g., making payments and receiving SMS codes), users and vendors may also be subject to the terms and privacy policies of these third-party providers.
9.2 Disclaimer Regarding Third-Party Content
Events Gear integrates with third-party service providers to enhance functionality and performance. However, we do not control or assume editorial responsibility for any content, services, or policies of third-party platforms. As such, the use of third-party services is at the user’s sole discretion and risk. The following disclaimers apply:
i. Accuracy and Reliability:
While Events Gear partners with reputable third-party providers, we do not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or reliability of information, tools, or services offered through these external sources.

Although we take every precaution to ensure the selection of secure and compliant service providers, Events Gear cannot be held responsible for any data breaches, security lapses, or privacy violations originating from third-party platforms.
iii. Performance and Availability:
Events Gear shall not be liable for service interruptions, delays, or failures caused by third-party systems, including payment gateways, SMS providers, or hosting services.
iv. User Responsibility:
Users are strongly advised to review the terms, conditions, and privacy policies of any third-party service accessed through Events Gear to understand how their data may be collected, used, or shared by those entities.
10. User Interactions and Disputes
Events Gear aims to provide a respectful and trustworthy environment that connects event organisers with service providers. While we promote professionalism and transparency among users, it is important to note that Events Gear is a neutral platform and does not directly participate in any agreements or transactions made between users.
i. Respectful Engagement:
All users are expected to maintain respectful and professional communication while using the platform. Abusive language, harassment, or discrimination of any kind is strictly prohibited.
ii. Independent Dealings:
All engagements, negotiations, and transactions between users and vendors are conducted independently and at the discretion of the parties involved. Events Gear does not guarantee the performance, quality, or reliability of any service provider or user.
iii. Dispute Handling:
Events Gear does not assume responsibility for resolving disputes between users. However, users may report inappropriate behaviour or suspected violations through the in-app “Report” feature for review. If deemed necessary, we may take action, such as issuing warnings or restricting accounts in accordance with our terms.
iv. Limitation of Liability:
Events Gear is not liable for any losses, damages, or misunderstandings arising from a vendor or user’s failure to fulfil their obligations. Users are strongly advised to perform their own due diligence before engaging any services on the platform.
10.2 Platform’s Role in Disputes Between Users
Events Gear provides a platform to facilitate connections between event organizers and service providers but does not participate directly in the transactions or agreements between users. As such, Events Gear is not liable for any claims, damages, or disputes arising from interactions or engagements conducted outside the platform.
Here’s how Events Gear may support dispute-related matters:
i. Limited Mediation Support:
While we may offer basic guidance or encourage dialogue between the involved parties, Events Gear does not mediate, arbitrate, or resolve disputes. Any assistance provided is purely facilitative and non-binding.
ii. Dispute Escalation Guidance:
If a resolution cannot be reached between parties, Events Gear may recommend next steps such as seeking legal counsel, third-party mediation, or relevant consumer protection bodies. We do not offer legal advice or represent either party.
iii. Documentation Review (Optional):
In select cases and only when necessary, Events Gear may request limited documentation (such as messages or receipts) to determine whether platform terms were violated. However, this review is strictly to determine whether platform policies were breached.
iv. Policy Enforcement:
If it is determined that a user has violated platform guidelines — including fraud, harassment, or repeated complaints — Events Gear reserves the right to restrict, suspend, or terminate access to the platform at its sole discretion.
Events Gear is committed to maintaining a professional and trustworthy marketplace. However, users are ultimately responsible for their own transactions, agreements, and engagements. We strongly encourage both parties to clearly communicate and document all terms before proceeding with services.
Disclaimer: Events Gear is a facilitator only and is not a party to any transaction, agreement, or service engagement made between users or vendors. Please conduct your own due diligence before making payments or confirming services.
