We reserve all rights not expressly granted to you in and to the Site, the Content, and the Marks.

REGISTRATION TRANSPARENCY

  3. You have the legal capacity and you agree to comply with these Terms and Conditions;

If you provide any information that is untrue, inaccurate, not current, or incomplete, we have the right to suspend or terminate your account and refuse any and all current or future use of the Site (or any portion thereof).

USER REGISTRATION

You may be required to register with the Site. You agree to keep your password confidential and will be responsible for all use of your account and password. We reserve the right to remove, reclaim, or change a username you select if we determine, in our sole discretion, that such username is inappropriate, obscene, or otherwise objectionable.

You understand and agree that Organizer may charge you with a registration fee in compliance with your participation in an event or donation to a charity, in which you are willing to pay. Included in the listed registration fee is a convenience fee and service tax charged to you by HereMNL for using the Services.

PAYMENTS TO HereMNL

HereMNL uses a third-party payment gateway. You agree to pay the total amount of Services you subscribed to or buy into. You also understand and agree that before payment checkout, we will collect all necessary information that we need to process your transaction including your personal information, bank details, and other form of payment channels that you will use to complete the transaction. Your individual or group payment includes necessary registration fee, processing fee, and service tax associated with your participation to our event and for using our Services.

Withholding Taxes. HereMNL may withhold from any amount payable under this payment transaction the local taxes as may be required to be withheld pursuant to any applicable Philippine law or regulation, especially when a registrant or a group of registrants require a receipt of payment.

Indirect Tax. The total amount due to registrant from any transaction made using our Services is exclusive of indirect taxes (VAT or Sales Tax). In such business transaction, registrant/s will be required to pay any amount of Indirect Tax at the applicable rate in addition to the payment made online before the issuance of any acceptable receipt from One Clever Squad Media Inc. (mother company of HereMNL).

REFUNDS

In the case of Force Majeure (as defined below), and because the Organizer sees it fit to move the event to a later date, registration fees already captured by the system are no longer refundable. Registrants will abide by the new event schedule should the event date change. It is the Organizer’s sole discretion to execute such contingency and postponement. However, we will coordinate with paid registrants through email or SMS for such changes.

Should a participant arrive after the category gun time from which he/she belongs, he/she will no longer be allowed to participate in the fun run and his/her registration fee will be forfeited. However, the participant will still receive his/her medal, Finisher shirt, loot bag, and e-certificate. Nonetheless, he/she would still be allowed to participate in all activities post-run.

You hereby acknowledge and agree that all issues related to changes in the event schedule and refunds, as mentioned in this clause are clear and you will not, in any instance, file a dispute against the Organizer. Any related issues shall be communicated to us and we will attend to them the best way we can.

If the Fun Run will no longer push through, necessary refunds will be given to paid registrants less of all charges incurred during the payment processing, and the schedule of refunds and resolution shall be determined at the sole discretion of the Organizer.

FORCE MAJEURE

HereMNL shall not be liable for any failure or delay that might happen during the day of the event, caused by in whole or in part to any cause beyond our control, including the reasonable control of our contractors, agents or suppliers, including but not limited to utility or transmission failures, installations, activations, power failure, strikes or other labor disturbances, floods, typhoons, fire and other acts of God, acts of war or terror and sabotage, and natural disasters.
