This Privacy Policy describes how your personal information is collected, used, and shared when you visit, post a listing, send a message, or make a purchase from TapOnTag.com (the “Site”).
PERSONAL INFORMATION WE COLLECT
When you visit the Site, we automatically collect certain information about your device, including information about your web browser, IP address, time zone, and some of the cookies that are installed on your device. Additionally, as you browse the Site, we collect information about the individual web pages or products that you view, what websites or search terms referred you to the Site, and information about how you interact with the Site. We refer to this automatically-collected information as “Device Information.”
We collect Device Information using the following technologies:
If you choose to create an account and/or use our Services, we may collect personally identifiable information that you submit such as your name, contact data (address, email address, phone number) and other similar information. Likewise, we may also collect additional personally identifiable information that you voluntarily include in your listings or transmit with your communications to us.
The information that you provide when you post a listing is displayed in public areas and available to all visitors. Any information that is disclosed in these areas becomes public information, so please exercise caution. We also provide you with the option to submit pictures and/or a description of your item or service. When you post your listing on the Site, the description and pictures are displayed on the site and accessible to visitors on the Site.
If you provide personal information to a buyer or seller, we have no control over how that information might be used by that individual.
Additionally, when you make a purchase or attempt to purchase through the Site, we collect certain information from you, including your name, billing address, shipping address, payment information (including credit card numbers and invoices), email address, and phone number. We refer to this information as “Order Information.”
When we talk about “Personal Information” in this Privacy Policy, we are talking both about Device Information and Order Information.
HOW DO WE USE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION?
We use the Order Information that we collect generally to fulfil any orders placed through the Site (including processing your payment information, arranging for delivery, and providing you with invoices and/or order confirmations). Additionally, we use this Order Information to:
Communicate with you;
Screen our orders for potential risk or fraud; and
When in line with the preferences you have shared with us, provide you with information or advertising relating to our products or services.
We use the Device Information that we collect to help us screen for potential risk and fraud (in particular, your IP address), and more generally to improve and optimize our Site (for example, by generating analytics about how our customers browse and interact with the Site, and to assess the success of our marketing and advertising campaigns).
We use the Device information for advertising and marketing purposes.
HOW DO WE PROTECT YOUR INFORMATION?
How Do We Secure Information Transmissions?

1. Accepting Terms of Service
1.1 StayR products, features and offerings are available (1) online through StayR properties including without limitation TapOnTag.com and Room Service 360; (b) off the platform, including without limitation, QR-code reader application, Consumer application, entry management, Dealer application, Driver application, Hotel Admin panel, Restaurant Admin Panel, sponsorship and marketing or distribution services; and (c) through mobile applications, Push notifications, Text messages (SMS), webpages, application programming interfaces, and subdomains (“Applications”). (a), (b), and (c) are collectively referred to as “StayR ” or our “Services”. These Terms apply to any Site(s) on which they are posted; where other terms or agreements are instead posted, those terms or agreements apply to the extent they conflict with these Terms. The material, including without limitation information, data, text, editorial content, design elements, look and feel, formatting, graphics, images, photographs, videos, music, sounds and other content contained in or delivered via the Services or otherwise made available by City Media LTD in connection with the Services is the “Site Content” (or “Content”). Any material (including the foregoing categories) that you contribute, provide, post or make available using the Services is “Your Content.”
1.2 Parties When these Terms use the term “Business Generator,” we mean restaurants, hotels, trade shows, or any e-tickets/vouchers/coupons issuers using the Services to create Consumer Products displayed on the Services for consumers using our Services (a) to consume information about offered products or services by Business Generator or buy QR-code vouchers/tickets/products (“Consumers”), or (b) for any other reason. Business Generators, Consumers and third parties using our Services are all referred to in these Terms collectively as “Users,” “you” or “your.”
When these Terms use the term “StayR,” “we,” “us,” or “our,” that refers to StayR. and its affiliates, and subsidiaries, and each of its and their respective officers, directors, agents, partners and employees.
1.3 If you are a Business USER offering your products and/or services with any consumer product tickets, PREPAID e-coupons, bookings, QR-code vouchers/e-gift cards, StayR Merchant Agreement and Business USER Refund Policy Requirements are also applicable to you. If you are a Business USER or Consumer, StayR Fair Use Guidelines apply to you.
If you are a third party interacting with our Services, not as a Business User or a Consumer, the API Terms of Use or Trademark and Copyright Policy might apply to you. Please be on the lookout for additional terms and conditions displayed with certain Services that you may use from time to time as those will also apply to you. And, by agreeing to these Terms of Service, you acknowledge you have read the Privacy Policy and Cookie Statement applicable to all Users. We may sometimes provide you with services that are not described in these Terms of Service, or customised services: unless we have entered into a separate, signed agreement that expressly supersedes these Terms of Service, these Terms of Service will apply to those services as well.
1.4 “Terms of Service”
These Terms of Service and the other documents referenced in them (including in Section 1.3 above) comprise StayR’s “Terms.” These Terms are a legally binding agreement between you and StayR governing your access to and use of the Services and setting out your rights and responsibilities when you use the Services. By using any of our Services (including browsing a Site), you are agreeing to these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, please do not use or access the Services. If you will be using the Services on behalf of an entity (such as on behalf of your employer), you agree to these Terms on behalf of that entity and its affiliates and you represent that you have the authority to do so. In such a case, “you” and “you’re” will refer to that entity as well as yourself.
2. StayR Services and Role
2.1 Stay Services provide a simple and quick means for Business USERS to participate Hotel Room Service program, create electronic product listings and physical and electronic tickets/vouchers/e-gift cards/mobile coupons, business profiles, and other webpages related to their services/products, promote those pages and QR-code vouchers to visitors or browsers on the Services or elsewhere online, manage online or onsite e-coupons and registrations, solicit donations, and sell or reserve services and merchandise related to Business USERS services to Consumers or other Users. Descriptions of other and more specific services can generally be found on the Site of each of the City Media LTD Properties.
2.2 StayR is not the Creator, Consumer, Business USER or owner of the products or services of Business USERS listed on the Services. StayR is the owner of the products offered through the Room Service 360 platform.
Rather, StayR provides its Services, which allow Business USERS to manage prepaid coupons, QR-code vouchers, bookings, gift cards, tickets and registrations and promote their products or services. The Business USER is solely responsible for ensuring that any page displaying an offer on the Services (and the offer itself) meets all applicable local, state, provincial, national and other laws, rules and regulations and that the goods and services described on the event page are delivered as described and in an accurate satisfactory manner.
StayR offers the payment processing method for Business USER voucher/ticket offers as more fully described in the Merchant Agreement. Once Business USER uses StayR Payment Processing (as defined in the Merchant Agreement), StayR also acts as the Business USER’s limited agent solely to use our third-party payment service providers to collect payments made by Consumers on the Services and pass such payments to the Business USER.
3. Privacy and Consumer Information
3.1 Information provided to StayR by Users or collected by StayR through StayR Properties, is governed by our Privacy Policy.
3.2 If you are a Business User, you represent, warrant and agree that (a) you will at all times comply with all applicable local, state, provincial, national and other laws, rules and regulations concerning the information you collect from (or receive about) consumers, and (b) you will at all times comply with any applicable policies posted on the Services concerning the information you collect from (or receive about) consumers.
4. Termination
4.1 These Terms apply to you as soon as you access the Services by any means and continue in effect until they are terminated. There may come a time when either you or StayR decides it’s best to part ways as described in Sections 4.2 or 4.3 below. When that happens, these Terms will generally no longer apply. However, as described in Section 4.4, certain provisions will always remain applicable to both you and StayR.
4.2 StayR may terminate your right to use the Services at any time
(a) if you violate or breach these Terms;
(b) if you misuse or abuse the Services, or use the Services in a way not intended or permitted by StayR; or
(c) if allowing you to access and use the Services would violate any applicable local, state, provincial, national and other laws, rules and regulations or would expose StayR to legal liability.
StayR may choose to stop offering the Services, or any particular portion of the Service, or modify or replace any aspect of the Service, at any time. We will use reasonable efforts to provide you with notice of our termination of your access to the Services, where, in StayR’s sole discretion, failure to do so would materially prejudice you.
You agree that StayR will not be liable to you or any third party as a result of its termination of your right to use or otherwise access the Services.
4.3 Except to the extent you have agreed otherwise in a separate written agreement between you and StayR, you may terminate your access to the Services and the general applicability of Terms by deleting your account.
If you are a Consumer using the Services without a registered account, your only option for these Terms to no longer apply is to stop accessing the Services indefinitely. So long as you continue to access the Services, even without an account, these Terms remain in effect.
If there is a separate agreement between you and StayR governing your use of the Services and that agreement terminates or expires, these Terms (as unmodified by such agreement) will govern your use of the Services after such termination or expiration.
4.4 All provisions of these Terms that by their nature should survive termination of these Terms will survive (including, without limitation, all limitations on liability, releases, indemnification obligations, disclaimers of warranties, agreements to arbitrate, choices of law and judicial forum and intellectual property protections and licences).
5. Release and Indemnification
You agree to cover StayR if you use the Service in a way at causes StayR to be the subject of a legal matter or to face other claims or expenses.
5.1 Release
You hereby agree to release StayR from all damages (whether direct, indirect, incidental, consequential or otherwise), losses, liabilities, costs and expenses of every kind and nature, known and unknown, arising out of a dispute between you and a third party (including other Users) in connection with the Services or any event listed on the Services. In addition, you waive any applicable law or statute, which says,
IN SUBSTANCE:
“A general release DOES NOT extend to claims which the releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in his favour at the time of executing the release, which if KNOW BY HIM must have materially affected his settlement with the released party.”
5.2 Indemnification
You agree to defend, indemnify and hold StayR and each of its and their respective officers, directors, agents, co-branders, licensors, payment processing partners, other partners and employees, harmless from any and all damage (whether direct, indirect, incidental, consequential or otherwise), loss, liability, cost and expense (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ and accounting fees) resulting from any claim, demand, suit, proceeding (whether before an arbitrator, court, mediator or otherwise) or investigation made by any third party (each a “Claim”) relating to or arising out of:
(a) your breach of these Terms (including any terms or agreements or policies incorporated into these Terms);
(b) your use of the Services in violation of these Terms or other policies we post or make available;
(c) your breach of any applicable local, state, provincial, national or other law, rule or regulation or the rights of any third party; and
(d) if you are an Business USER, your products and services (including where StayR has provided Services with respect to those QR-code vouchers/tickets, coupons), provided that in the case of
(d) this indemnification will not apply to the extent that the Claim arises out of StayR gross negligence or willful misconduct.
StayR will provide notice to you of any such Claim, provided that the failure or delay by StayR in providing such notice will not limit your obligations hereunder except to the extent you are materially prejudiced by such failure. Also, in certain circumstances,StayR may choose to handle this ourselves, in which case you agree to cooperate with StayR in any way we request.
6. Disclaimer of Warranties and Assumption of Risks by You
To the extent permitted by applicable laws, the Services are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. StayR expressly disclaims all warranties of any kind, express or implied, including, but not limited to, implied warranties of merchantability, title, non-infringement and fitness for a particular purpose. For example, StayR makes no warranty that (a) the Services (or any portion of the Services) will meet your requirements or expectations; (b) the Services will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free; or (c) the results that may be obtained from the use of the Services will be accurate or reliable.
You acknowledge that StayR has no control over and does not guarantee the quality, safety, accuracy or legality of any product, voucher, ticket, coupon, gift card or Content associated with a Business USERS offers, the truth or accuracy of any information provided by Users (including the Consumer’s personal information shared with Business USERS in connection with coupons, vouchers, gift cards or tickets) or the ability of any User to perform or complete a transaction. StayR has no responsibility to you for and hereby disclaims all liability arising from, the acts or omissions of any third parties StayR requires to provide the Services or a Business USER chooses to assist with an offer.
You understand and agree that some event tickets may carry inherent risks, and by participating in those events, you choose to assume those risks voluntarily. For example, some events may carry the risk of illness, bodily injury, disability, or death, and you freely and willfully assume those risks by choosing to participate in those events.
The foregoing disclaimers apply to the maximum extent permitted by law. You may have other statutory rights. However, the duration of statutorily required warranties, if any, will be limited to the maximum extent permitted by law.
7. Limitation of Liability
7.1 To the extent permitted by applicable laws, or as otherwise set forth herein, StayR and any person or entity associated with StayR’s provision of the Services (e.g., an affiliate, vendor, strategic partner or employee) (“Associated Parties”), will not be liable to you or any third party, for
(a) any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, punitive or exemplary damages, including, but not limited to, damages for loss of profits, goodwill, use, data, opportunity costs, intangible losses, or the cost of substitute services (even if StayR has been advised of the possibility of such damages); or
(b) Your Content. In addition, other than the obligation of StayR to pay out Reservation, Ticket, Coupon, QR-code Voucher or Gift Card registration Fees in certain circumstances to certain Business USERS under the Merchant Agreement, and only by the terms therein, the maximum aggregate liability of StayR or Associated Parties is limited to the following:
(i) for Business USERS of paid offers, tickets, vouchers, coupons and gift cards, and subject to the terms of the Merchant Agreement, the fees (net of StayR Payment Processing Fees) that you paid us in the three (3) month period immediately preceding the circumstances giving rise to your claim; and
(ii) for Business USERS of offers with free QR-code vouchers, bookings, tickets, services only, Consumers or other Users, (1) the total amount of all vouchers, tickets, coupons or registrations that you purchased or made through the Services in the three (3) month period immediately preceding the circumstances giving rise to your claim; or (2) if you made no such purchases, one hundred UK Sterlings (GBP 100).
7.2 Nothing in these Terms is intended to exclude or limit any condition, warranty, right or liability which may not be lawfully excluded or limited. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties or conditions or the limitation or exclusion of liability for loss or damage caused by willful acts, negligence, breach of contract or breach of implied terms, or incidental or consequential damages. Accordingly, only those liability and other limitations which are lawful in your jurisdiction (if any) will apply to you and our liability is limited to the maximum extent permitted by law.
8. BINDING ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER PROVISIONS
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY AS IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS. ANY DISPUTE OR CLAIM UNDER THESE TERMS OR CONCERNING THE SERVICES WILL BE SETTLED BY BINDING ARBITRATION OR IN SMALL CLAIMS COURT (TO THE EXTENT THE CLAIM QUALIFIES) AND WILL TAKE PLACE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS ONLY; YOU AGREE THAT CLASS, CONSOLIDATED OR REPRESENTATIVE ARBITRATIONS AND CIVIL ACTIONS ARE NOT PERMITTED AND ANY RIGHTS TO BRING SUCH ACTIONS ARE WAIVED BY EACH PARTY.
The parties understand that absent this mandatory provision, they would have the right to sue in court and have a jury trial. They further understand that, in some instances, the costs of arbitration could exceed the costs of litigation and the right to discovery may be more limited in arbitration than in court.
(a) Contact Us First
If you have a question or concern about the Services, please contact us first. Our customer support team will try to answer your question or resolve your concern.
(b) Agreement to Arbitrate
In the unlikely event that our customer support team is unable to resolve your concerns, the parties (you and we) each hereby agree to resolve any disputes or claims under these Terms, concerning the Services or related to our relationship through binding arbitration or in small claims court (to the extent the claim qualifies) instead of in courts of general jurisdiction, and only on an individual basis. In no event may either we or you seek to resolve a dispute with the other as part of any purported class, consolidated or representative proceeding. Binding arbitration is subject to very limited review. Only the arbitrator appointed under this Section, and not any federal, state or local court will have the authority to resolve any dispute or claim relating to this Section including, without limitation, regarding the scope, enforceability and arbitrability of these Terms. This arbitration provision will survive termination of these Terms. These Terms evidence a transaction in interstate commerce and the interpretation and enforcement of this Section 8 is governed by the Arbitration Act, notwithstanding the choice of law outlined in Section 8 (h) below.
(c) Scope of Agreement
This agreement to arbitrate is intended to be broadly interpreted as to legal dispute between you and us. It includes, but is not limited to: (i) all claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of the relationship between us, whether based on contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation or any other legal theory; (ii) all claims that arose before this or any prior agreement (including, but not limited to, claims relating to advertising); and (iii) all claims that may arise after termination of these Terms and/or your use of the Services.
(d) Exceptions
Notwithstanding this agreement to arbitrate, either party may (i) bring an action on an individual basis in small claims court (to the extent the applicable claim qualifies); or (ii) bring enforcement actions, validity determinations or claims arising from or relating to theft, piracy or unauthorised use of the intellectual property. Intellectual Property Rights (“Intellectual Property Rights” means patents, copyrights, moral rights, trademarks, and trade secrets, but not privacy or publicity rights). In addition, the portion of any dispute or complaint relating to our participation in the US-EU or US-Swiss Privacy Shield Frameworks is subject to the Dispute Resolution section of our Privacy Policy before being subject to this Section.
(e) No Class Actions
YOU AND STAYR AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, CONSOLIDATED OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS, MAY NOT PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF CLASS, CONSOLIDATED OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING AND MAY ONLY PROVIDE RELIEF IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF WARRANTED BY THAT PARTY’S CLAIM.
(f) Notice of Dispute
A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send to the other a written Notice of Dispute (“Notice”). The Notice to StayR must be addressed to the following address (“Notice Address”) and must be sent by certified mail: StayR. 71-75 Shelton Street, London, Greater London, United Kingdom, WC2H 9JQ. Notice to you will be addressed to a mailing, home or payment address currently on record with StayR and must be sent by certified mail. If StayR has no records of such physical address, such notice may be delivered to your StayR account email address. The Notice must (i) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (ii) set forth the specific relief sought. If StayR and you do not reach an agreement to resolve the claim within sixty (60) calendar days after the Notice is received, you or StayR may commence an arbitration proceeding.
(g) Arbitration Proceedings
The arbitration will be governed by the Commercial Arbitration Rules, or, if the actions giving rise to the dispute or claim relating to your personal or household use of the Services (rather than business use), the Consumer Arbitration Rules (in each case, the “LCIA Rules”) of the London Court of International Arbitration (“LCIA”), as modified by this Section 8, and will be administered by the LCIA and settled by a single arbitrator. All issues in dispute between the parties are for the arbitrator to decide, including, but not limited to, issues relating to the scope, enforceability, and arbitrability of this Section 8.
(h) Location of Arbitration Proceedings
If you are a Consumer, any arbitration hearings will take place (at your option) either in the county of your residence or by phone, except that if you are a Consumer whose residence is outside of the UK or Spain, the hearing will take place either in London or Alicante or by phone or videoconference, at your option and as permitted by the LCIA Rules. If you are a business (i.e., your use of the Services was for commercial use), then unless StayR and you agree otherwise, any arbitration hearings will take place in a reasonably convenient location in the United States for both parties with due consideration of their ability to travel and other pertinent circumstances. If the parties are unable to agree on a location, LCIA will determine the location. If your claim is for ten thousand GBP (£ 10,000) or less, we agree that you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted solely based on documents submitted to the arbitrator, through a telephonic hearing, or by an in-person hearing as established by the LCIA Rules. If your claim exceeds ten thousand GBP (£ 10,000), the right to a hearing will be determined by the LCIA Rules. Regardless of how the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator will issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based. All decisions by the arbitrator will be final and binding and judgment on the award rendered may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.
(i) Costs of Arbitration; Legal Fees
i. Payment of Costs and Expenses. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator costs and expenses imposed by LCIA will be governed by the LCIA rules, provided that if you are initiating an arbitration against StayR and the value of the relief sought is ten thousand GBP (£ 10,000) or less, then StayR will advance all filing, administrative and arbitration costs and expenses imposed by LCIA (subject to reimbursement as set forth below). Further, if the circumstances in the preceding sentence apply and your claim arises from your use of the Services as a Consumer, but the value of the relief sought is more than ten thousand GBP (£ 10,000) and you demonstrate to the arbitrator that such costs and expenses would be more expensive than a court proceeding, then StayR will pay the amount of any such costs and expenses. If the arbitrator determines that all of the claims you assert in arbitration are frivolous according to the Rule of Civil Procedure, you agree to reimburse StayR for all such costs and expenses that StayR paid and that you would have been obligated to pay under the LCIA Rules.
ii. Payment of Legal Fees – Each party will initially bear its own attorneys’ fees and expenses in connection with any arbitration. Should either party be determined to have substantially prevailed in the arbitration, then upon such party’s request, the arbitrator will award such prevailing party the reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses that it incurred in connection with the arbitration, provided that to the extent that the dispute or claim relating to your personal or household use of the Services (rather than business use) StayR will not seek to recover its attorneys’ fees and expenses in an arbitration initiated by you. The arbitrator may make rulings and resolve disputes as to the reimbursement of attorneys’ fees and expenses upon request from either party made within fourteen (14) days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits.
(j) Future Changes
Notwithstanding any provision in these Terms to the contrary, you and StayR agree that if StayR makes any future change to this arbitration provision (other than a change to the Notice Address) StayR will provide you with notice of such change and you may reject any such change by sending us written notice within thirty (30) calendar days of the change to the Notice Address provided above. By rejecting any future change, you are agreeing that you will arbitrate any dispute between us under the language of this provision as unmodified by such rejected change.
(k) Special Severability
If any provisions of this Section 8 are found to be invalid or unenforceable for any dispute or claim, then, the entirety of this Section 8 will be null and void concerning such dispute or claim and Section 23 will apply in place of this Section 8.
(l) Opt-Out
You have the right to opt-out and not be bound by the arbitration or class action waiver provisions set forth above by sending (from the email address we associate with you as a User) written notice of your decision to opt out to info@citymedia.us, with the subject line, “ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER OPT-OUT.” The notice must be sent within thirty (30) days of your first use of the Services or your agreement to these Terms (whichever is later); otherwise, you will be bound to arbitrate disputes by the terms of those paragraphs. Note that if you opt-out of these arbitration provisions, StayR also will not be bound by them.
9. Licence to the StayR Services
9.1 Licence to Services. We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable (except to sub-users registered via the Services), revocable right to use our Services solely to (a) browse the Services and search for, view, register for or purchase gift cards, coupons, tickets or registrations to the offers listed on the Services; and/or (b) create offer registration, Business USER profile and other webpages to promote, market, manage, track, and collect sales proceeds for offers.

12. Fees and Refunds
12.1 Creating a Business USER and Customer accounts, listing QR-code vouchers/coupons/tickets/products/services and accessing the Services are free. However, we charge fees when you sell or buy paid tickets or registrations. These fees may vary based on individual agreements between City Media LTD and certain Business USERS. Business USERS ultimately determine whether these fees will be passed along to Consumers and shown as “Fees” on the applicable service page or absorbed into the ticket, booking or registration price and paid by the Business USER out of ticket and registration gross proceeds. The fees charged to Consumers may include certain other charges, including without limitation, facility fees, royalties, taxes, processing fees and fulfilment fees. Therefore, the fees paid by Consumers for services and products are not necessarily the same as those charged by StayR to the applicable Business USER or the standard fees described on the Services to Business USERS. In addition, certain fees are meant, on average, to defray certain costs incurred by City Media LTD, but may in some cases include an element of profit and some cases include an element of loss. StayR does not control (and thus cannot disclose) fees levied by your bank and/or credit card company, including fees for purchasing any product/service from the platform in foreign currencies or foreign persons. Be sure to check with your bank or credit card company before engaging in a transaction to understand all applicable fees, credit card surcharges and currency conversion rates.
12.2 Refunds. Because all transactions are between a Business USER and its respective attendees, StayR asks that all Consumers contact the applicable Business USER of their event with any refund requests.
(a) If you are a Consumer, you acknowledge that should you receive a refund for your purchase, you will discard any QR-code voucher that we or any Business USER has delivered, and will not use it (or any copy of it). Violation of the foregoing constitutes fraud. You acknowledge that the applicable procedure to check the validity of the QR-code voucher must always be followed. StayR will not be held liable under any circumstances for any costs arising from non-compliance by Business USERS with applicable procedures that must be implemented by Business USERS to check the validity of QR-code vouchers. StayR will not be held liable under any circumstances for costs and/or damage associated with QR-code vouchers arising from situations of fraud and/or for damage associated with the purchase of the QR-code voucher or ticket through non-official means, such as third parties.
(b) If you are a Business User, you acknowledge that the applicable procedure to check the validity of the QR-code voucher must always be followed. StayR will not be held liable under any circumstances for any costs arising from non-compliance by Business USERS with applicable procedures that must be implemented by Business USERS to check the validity of tickets. StayR will not be held liable under any circumstances for costs and/or damage associated with tickets arising from situations of fraud and/or for damage associated with the purchase of the ticket through non-official means, such as third parties.
