TERMS OF SERVICE

These terms and conditions for registration and attendance (“Event Terms”) at the NGT LIVE 2020 event (“Event”) organized by NexGenT Inc (“NexGenT”, “Company”, “we”, “our”) are binding without qualification or exception, on all persons registered to attend, or actually in attendance, at our Events (“Registrant,” “you,” “your”). By registering for or attending the Event, each Registrant hereby agrees: (1) to be bound by and shall be deemed to have accepted these Event Terms, which the Registrant acknowledges to have read and understood; and (2) they have obtained the consent of their employer, to the extent their employer may so require, prior to registering for the Event and becoming bound by these Event Terms. If the Registrant is not authorized or does not agree to any of these Event Terms, the Registrant may not enter, view, or make use of this website for the Event (“Website”) and may not register for or otherwise attend the Event.

 

Payment Information & Terms

Full payment of the Event registration fee must be provided upon submission of the registration form. Payment in U.S. funds can be made by Visa, MasterCard, or American Express. Full payment must be received at the time of purchase. Any Registrants who have not submitted full payment prior to the Event will be charged the day-of rate and required to submit full payment prior to gaining access or entry to the Event.

 

Orders placed on behalf of multiple attendees for group registrations must be current on all group registration fees in order for any member of the group to gain access or entry to the Event.

 

Please read and understand our transfer and cancellation policies for all registration types.

 

Registration Rates and Discount

It is your responsibility to confirm the price displayed at checkout is the price you expect and agree to pay prior to completing the purchase. Upon submission of a complete registration form, the purchase and rate paid are final. We are unable to adjust, return, or refund previously purchased tickets for any reason, except as expressly provided in our 24-Hour Worry-Free Guarantee below. NexGenT may offer a discount code as part of a limited time sale. That code may only be applied towards the designated type of individual or group registration, and the value will not transfer to another type of individual or group registration if you upgrade later. NexGenT honors only one discount code per ticket per Event. Discount codes cannot be applied retroactively.

 

Registration Confirmation and Scope of Terms

Upon submission of registration, the Registrant will receive a confirmation of the registration. Additional rules may apply from the physical Event venue(s) and/or digital platform used for the virtual Event venue(s) (“Rules”), and Registrant agrees that NexGenT is not responsible for any of the Rules or their administration or enforcement by third parties other than NexGenT. Nothing in these Event Terms is designed to censor anyone’s speech or conduct on public property.

 

Cancellations/Refund Policy: 24-Hour Worry-Free Guarantee

We understand that life happens, so for purchases made more than 30 days prior to the Event, you may cancel your purchase for a full refund within 24 hours of purchase. Purchases made within 30 days of the Event are non-refundable. We will not provide refunds under any other circumstances, including if you need to cancel due to illness or for any other reasons outside your control.  

To cancel your registration and receive your refund, if eligible, please notify us in writing at support@nexgent.com. If you qualify for a refund, the amount refunded will be based on the actual fees paid for the registration(s) canceled and will be returned to your original payment method within ninety (90) days.

 

Ticket Transfers

If your plans change, you may transfer your ticket, as long as you:

 

(1) have not used it to register for or otherwise access part or all of any Event, or Event content and materials included as part of the ticket, as tickets and access to Events may not be shared; and

(2) let us know in writing at least 14 days before the Event.

 

To request a ticket transfer, please email support@nexgent.com with a copy of your ticket number or email confirmation, along with the new attendee’s name, email, title, company, and phone number. You must be able to show that you are the original Registrant or authorized by the original Registrant to make changes to the registration.

Agenda Changes; Postponement or Cancellation of Event

From time to time, we may make updates to the Event agenda, which may include cancellation of and/or changes to certain Event activities. While the Event speakers and agenda are confirmed at the time of publishing, there may be substitutions, alterations, or cancellations of the speakers or agenda due to circumstances beyond the control of NexGenT. Accordingly, we cannot and do not guarantee any specific speaker, performing artist, entertainment, or other components of the Event agenda. We reserve the right to alter or modify the advertised speakers or agenda, and we will not refund registration fees, provide alternative compensation, or otherwise be liable to you based on these changes. NexGenT will make reasonable efforts to update our Website with any substitutions or alterations as soon as reasonably possible.

NexGenT is not responsible for any damage or loss as a result of alteration, substitution, delay, postponement, rescheduling, or cancellation of an Event. NexGenT will not be considered in breach of these Event Terms or otherwise liable to you, except as specifically provided in this provision, if an Event is subjected to limited occupancy, delayed, canceled, rescheduled, or postponed, in whole or in part, as a result of (1) any closures or occupancy restrictions of any venues, services, and other spaces, (2) any government-issued closure, shelter-in-place, or quarantine orders, (3) any government restrictions or recommendations placed on individuals and groups of individuals, (4) any law or action taken by a government or public authority, or (5) any issues arising from any health and travel restrictions, wars, epidemics and pandemics (including without limitation COVID-19 coronavirus), illness, accidents, internet and third party application connectivity, interruption or failure of utility service, electronic or communications failure, war, explosion, fire, smoke, flood, drought, earthquake, or other natural disaster, terrorist attack, protests or demonstrations, riots, police action, security threat, civil war, loss of electricity, labor or trade dispute, strike, industrial action or lockout, nonperformance by service providers and subcontractors, delays by you, or other impediments to performance caused directly or indirectly by any event or circumstances outside NexGenT’s reasonable control, which make NexGenT’s performance illegal, impossible, inadvisable, or commercially impractical as determined in NexGenT’s reasonable discretion. If an Event is subjected to limited occupancy, delayed, canceled, rescheduled, or postponed for these or any other reasons, your sole remedy shall be that we will provide you with access to the rescheduled Event or a similar replacement Event at a later date to be determined by NexGenT. If an Event is subjected to limited occupancy, delayed, canceled, rescheduled, or postponed, there will be no refunds provided. NexGenT will take reasonable efforts to notify you of any changes or interruptions to the Event as soon as reasonably possible.

So you may not copy, reproduce, publish, or distribute the screenshots or take any audio or video recordings of Event activities without our prior written permission.

You agree not to use any permitted recordings for commercial purposes, to mislead or disparage, to imply you own the recording content, to suggest that we endorse your business, or in violation of applicable laws or our Code of Conduct. You further agree to comply with any requests we make not to record specific Event activities and for you to discontinue the use of recordings, including removal of previous social media posts that include those recordings.

By participating or attending the Event, each Registrant agrees that he or she may appear in these photos and videos, and authorizes, and agrees to hold NexGenT harmless from their use in this fashion. Furthermore, by participating in the Event, you grant NexGenT the right to use and license the use of your image, likeness, and voice in audio or video recordings and all media (collectively, “Recordings”), now or hereafter known, by whatever means exhibited, advertised, or otherwise exploited. You hereby agree to:

(1) release and hold NexGenT harmless from any and all liability arising out of the use of the Recordings in any manner or media whatsoever;

(3) waive any and all actions, suits, or claims relating to the use of the Recordings, including claims for invasion of privacy rights or publicity.

If you do choose to register for or attend specific Event activities or use our Event platform and other online communities, you acknowledge that we do not control how other attendees or sponsors of those specific Event activities use your information.
