Scope of Our Services and Bookings
Booking For Events provides an online Platform that introduces Users who wish to learn about venues, catering or transport services and make Bookings with the venues, catering or transport services that have created Profiles and published their Rooms on our Platform for the purposes of making them available for Bookings (referred to as “Services”). Booking For Events may provide Services either online, by email, by telephone or through any other means.
Users make Bookings directly with venues, catering or transport services. Booking For Events acts only as an intermediary to help advertise venues, catering or transport services, to refer Users to venues, catering or transport services and to increase your traffic. Any contract, arrangement or agreement is between you and a User. Booking For Events is not a party to nor liable under any contract, arrangement or agreement entered into between Vendor and User, nor is Booking For Events a contracting agent or insurer.
Through our Platform, a User can view details and learn about Venues and Rooms and send you Booking Enquiries which you agree to receive.
Users can find venues, catering or transport services by browsing the sections on our platform who registered with us and published their Profiles. Alternatively, a User may fill in the “Help me with events providers” form or contact us by any other means, so that a Booking For Events Representative will select or suggest a suitable venue, catering or transport service for a User. In doing so, Booking For Events Representative will take into account User’s preferences and requirements. Consequently, a User may send you a Booking Enquiry or, if requested by User, a Booking For Events Representative can send you a Booking Enquiry on User’s behalf which you agree to receive.
You agree that you will respond to Booking Enquiries from Users or Booking For Events Representatives either by replying to or rejecting Booking Enquiries. All Booking Enquiries will be visible and accessible to you when you log in to your Booking For Events account. When responding to any Booking Enquiry you undertake to do so promptly and accurately. Errors in responding to Booking Enquiries will be treated to be in favour of a User.
Each Booking Enquiry sent to you will have either
“New” status if you have not responded to a Booking Enquiry yet;
“In progress” status if you have responded by either answering questions, by providing further details or a quote or engaged into conversation about or negotiation of a potential Booking of any of your Rooms;
“Booking confirmed” status if you have agreed with a User to proceed to a Booking or the event for which a Booking was made has taken place;or
“Unsuccessful” status if you or the User rejected a Booking Enquiry.
Once you reply to a Booking Enquiry, a User will receive your contact details that you have made available to us and that are necessary for getting in touch with you in order to negotiate any terms of or making a Booking. A User will then at his or her own discretion contact you with an offer to make a Booking of any of your Rooms, which you can accept or reject. If you decide to accept and proceed to a Booking or the event has already taken place, you must update a status of a relevant Booking Enquiry to “Booking confirmed” in your Booking For Events account.
You are responsible for updating a status of each Booking Enquiry under your account and you will act in good faith in ensuring that a status of each Booking Enquiry you received accurately reflects the current state of affairs.
Booking For Events Representative has a right to contact you about Booking Enquiries you received and you agree and undertake to provide an accurate and truthful information.
Booking For Events Representative has a right to contact you, if deems needed, to obtain necessary details about you or any of your published Rooms as well as to ask for your feedback for the purposes of providing quality Service.
Booking For Events may contact a User at any time after you have replied to a Booking Enquiry to ask about the status of a Booking Enquiry or a Booking made through our Platform.
Booking For Events provides an opportunity to and may invite Users to leave feedback about a Vendor and/or a Room following a Booking through our Platform. Feedback will not be altered by Booking For Events and will be published on our website as it was submitted to us once a Booking For Events Representative has checked it for obscenities.
