Terms of Service

Please review these Terms of Service before purchasing a ticket or agreeing to participate in any of our events.

Introduction

Our aim is to keep these Terms of Service as readable as possible, but in some cases, for legal reasons, some of the language is required legalese.

Your acceptance of these terms

These terms of service are entered into by and between You and LoveLitCon, a production of Flock Presents, LLC (“Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) a Delaware corporation. The following terms of service, together with any documents they expressly incorporate by reference (collectively “Terms of Service”), govern your access to and use of LoveLit.com (our “Website”), including any content, functionality, and services offered on or through our Website.

Please read the Terms of Service carefully before you start to use our Website.

By using our Website, or by clicking to accept or agree to the Terms of Service when this option is made available to you, you accept and agree to be bound and abide by these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy, incorporated herein by reference. If you do not want to agree to these Terms of Service, you must not access or use our Website.

By accessing and using our Website, you accept and agree to be bound and comply with these Terms of Service; you represent and warrant that you are the legal age of majority under applicable law to form a binding contract with us; and, you agree if you access our Website from a jurisdiction where it is not permitted, you do so at your own risk.

Events and tickets

Each ticket includes admission to the event and author signing sessions in the year for which the ticket is valid, plus any meals and/or snacks that may be advertised with the event. You are responsible for making and paying for your own travel and dining arrangements, including hotel reservations and transportation to and from the event, if necessary.

A limited number of tickets are made available each year. Tickets may be offered in one or more categories (such as “Early Bird” or “Early Entry”), and may be priced differently for each event. Each category of tickets will only be available for a limited amount of time, or until they sell out.

Once a category of tickets sells out for an event, that category of tickets will no longer be available for purchase. We do not guarantee we will maintain a wait list once event tickets have sold out, but we may attempt to keep a wait list. In some cases, we may work with a venue to increase capacity, and additional ticket inventory may become available again after event tickets were previously marked as sold out. We may not always announce when additional inventory has opened up.

Tickets may be purchased via links or buttons on our Website. Other relevant products or offerings may be available for purchase with your event tickets.

Tickets for any event are not guaranteed until you complete checkout. Even if you have added one or more tickets on the ticket page, that category of tickets may sell out before you complete the checkout process. You are encouraged to complete the checkout process in a timely manner for the best chance of securing the tickets you want.

Ticket sales typically close one week prior to each event, or whenever the event sells out (whichever happens sooner).

Event schedules

However hard we try to confirm event participants and the event schedule, life happens, and circumstances are sometimes beyond our control. All announced participants including authors, narrators, publishers, speakers, sponsors, vendors, venues, rooms, schedule, and the particulars of each event are subject to change without notice. We will do our best to notify you of any substantial changes as soon as we can.

Entry to event

You will receive an email order confirmation of your purchase, as well as a separate email containing any event tickets purchased. Save the ticket email. Purchased tickets are also viewable and printable from the purchaser’s Account page. To check in at registration and be admitted for each event, Attendees are required to bring 1) a ticket with its QR code clearly visible (either printed, or accessible on a phone) and 2) a photo ID. The name on each ticket must match a corresponding photo ID.

If someone does not have a ticket with them at check-in, they must provide their photo ID, and the name on the ID must reasonably match the name of a registered attendee in our database. If they do not have a ticket and a photo ID, or their photo ID can not be matched to a name of a registered attendee in our database, we reserve the right to refuse admission to the event for that individual.

Payment and fees

You may be required to purchase or pay a fee to access our services or our events. We accept Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and possibly other forms of payment via our payment partner, Stripe, for all purchases. However, we do not guarantee the availability of any payment method at any moment and we may add, remove or suspend any payment method temporarily or permanently at our sole discretion. You agree to provide current, complete, and accurate purchase and account information for all purchases made via our Website and to promptly update account and payment information, including email address, payment method, and payment card expiration date, in order to complete your purchases and contact you as needed. Sales tax will be added to the price of purchases as deemed required by us, or we may absorb the cost of sales tax and pay it out of the total fees we take in. We may change prices at any time. All payments shall be in USD.

You agree to pay all charges or fees at the prices then in effect for your purchases, and you authorize us to charge your chosen payment provider for any such amounts upon making your purchase.

We reserve the right to correct any errors or mistakes in pricing, even if we have already requested or received payment. We also reserve the right to refuse any order placed through our Website.

From time to time, we may offer promotional codes for a specified period, which may be subject to additional terms. We have sole discretion to determine any eligibility for promotional codes.

No refunds

All ticket sales and transactions are final and non-refundable. No refunds will be offered by LoveLitCon.

However, during your ticket purchase, you may be offered purchase protection by a third party which, if purchased at the same time as the ticket(s), will refund you a portion or all of your registration fees should you be prevented from attending due to a qualifying unforeseen circumstance. Qualifying circumstances, exclusions, and the full terms are linked from our ticket page, are at the sole discretion of the company providing purchase protection, and are subject to change at any time. LoveLitCon has no input, say, or control over the company that offers purchase protection, nor do we have any involvement in the purchase protection policies, decisions, and changes related to the purchase protection offered with each ticket order.

Transfers

If you cannot attend or change your mind about attending, your ticket may be transferred to another individual for the same event and year for which it was purchased, and must be done at least 30 days prior to the event for which the ticket is valid. You are solely responsible for finding and correctly naming and identifying a transferee who is willing to purchase your ticket. LoveLitCon may offer to help with a ticket transfer, but only if we have a waitlist of people who want to purchase a ticket. There may be a fee for ticket transfers, which will be deducted from any proceeds you receive by transferring your ticket to another purchaser. Ticket transfers may only be initiated from the person who originally purchased the ticket, and must be done using the email used to purchase the ticket, along with the order number of the ticket purchase. Ticket transfers may also be initiated within the ticket holder’s attendee account center. Attendee accounts may be created at any time to manage past ticket purchases. Any purchased ticket will be valid only for the named attendee and event as specified in our database 30 days prior to the event.

Code of Conduct

By purchasing a ticket to attend, agreeing to participate in, volunteer for, or work at any of our events, you agree to read in full and abide by our Code of Conduct (the “Code of Conduct”) for the entire duration of each event you attend.
