BETWEEN THE USER("YOU") AND CHIKETTO("CKT")

1. Definition of services:

       CKT will work on purchasing tickets on behalf of you upon request, and the services provided by CKT shall be:

        - Look for tickets upon requests through our website(https://www.chiketto.org)

        - Purchase tickets on behalf of you that are already paid by you.

        - Send purchased tickets to your preferred locations.

         * Hereinafter collectively called "the Services".

     CKT will also work on the following tasks after your tickets are purchased on behalf of you upon request.

        - Help through the refund process upon your request.

        - Offer a resale service.

          * Hereinafter collectively called "the After Services".

     CKT will not be responsible other than the services and the after services described above. CKT will also not be responsible for failing to provide the services caused by user's own reasoning such as failing to pick up your tickets that are delivered in time, or failing to provide the essential information (e.g. your email, name, phone number, shipping address etc.) that are requested from CKT. In that case, no refund shall be made.

     CKT shall acquire the good seats available, but the choice of the seats are solely on CKT's discretion and no cancellation/ changes are not allowed once secured.

     The completion of the services shall be the time when your tickets are sent to you from CKT. 

2.  Ticket Ownership:

        Upon request, you agree to name CKT as your representative to purchase your tickets. The tickets obtained by CKT are your possession and CKT will have no rights to use/ resell tickets without your permission. Even if you permit CKT to access your tickets in any ways (e.g. discard, use or resell etc.), the tickets will still be your possession and CKT shall still act as your representative. You shall agree with all the terms and conditions set by primary sellers and event organizers. It is your responsibilities to comply with all the regulations as a ticket owner. CKT will not bear any damage of receiving false information from you. In such cases, no refund shall be made.

       If tickets are not delivered by the event day, and that is caused by your reasoning (e.g. you decide not to go to the event, failed to pick up tickets, asked CKT to resell tickets etc.) and the event is held on that day, you agree the tickets to be discarded by CKT on the next day of the event date. CKT will have an authority to access your tickets only for the purpose of discarding, and will not be authorized for any other purposes.

3. The fees:

      CKT will charge non-refundable fees as below.

       - Service fee: 2000 JPY per ticket     *If a single ticket allows the admission of multiple people, the service fee will be charged per person. 

        (8% of face value when the ticket face value exceeds 30000 JPY per ticket)

           Service fee is to provide the services described above.

       -Ticket acquisition fees (charged when CKT requires an extra fee): 

            The fee is intended for covering costs (e.g., a buyer charge of a primary ticketing company, ticket printing cost, any other costs that are needed to obtain tickets). 

            The charge of the fee is solely on CKT's discretion and it may be different from the actual costs.

    -Transaction fee 4.1% (to cover payment gateway fees & payment forms)

         -Shipping fee (Local 600 JPY, International 4000 JPY) in case of any physical shipping.

      All fees above are local consumption tax inclusive (if any).

       CKT shall specify the total price and total fee before your payment. In case the extra fee ("the Additional Fee") is needed after your payment, CKT shall explain the Additional Fee in a timely manner. The Additional Fee shall be mutually agreed and paid by you with extra 4.1% of transaction fee. Before such a mutual agreement, CKT will not proceed to secure tickets. If CKT did not mention the Additional Fee even though there was an extra fee, such fees will be on CKT's cost. 

     CKT shall charge all the fees and ticket price in JPY. CKT shall not be responsible for any currency exchange rate issues and possible commissions from your credit company.

4. Cancellation policy:

No cancellation allowed for the services. The above fees in clause 3 along with face value of tickets are non-refundable. 

5. Postponements:

       If an event is postponed, you may use the tickets on the rescheduled date. CKT does not provide refunds for postponed or rescheduled events. In case you cannot attend the event on the rescheduled date, CKT can resell tickets for you.

6.  Failing to obtain tickets:

       CKT will refund 100% of money (i.e., face value of tickets and the fees described in clause 3) when CKT fails to obtain tickets after receiving your money. CKT shall notify you promptly and process a refund within 30 days after the notification. However, this does not apply once your tickets are already purchased by CKT. CKT shall deduct 10% of the total amount paid by you as processing fee, if the refund processed is caused by your reasoning.

7. Event Cancellation:

      If the event is cancelled and the event organizers offer buyers a refund, CKT will take care of your refund process upon requests, under the conditions that CKT holds your tickets. If you hold tickets by yourself, you shall contact CKT to request a shipping address and send the tickets at your own cost. CKT will not be responsible for failing to receive tickets or receiving tickets after the refund acceptance period is over - in that case, no refund shall be made.

     The money refunded to you will be the face value of the tickets minus actual fees that are charged for the refund process, if any ("Refund amount"). CKT will not charge an extra fee for the refund process. However, our fees described in clause 3 will not be refundable except the shipping fee only when unused. 

　As an exceptional case, CKT will offer a refund of 90% of the total amount paid from you when the event is cancelled solely by the weather ("Special refund"). CKT will have the exclusive rights to decide if your case will be entitled to the Special refund. Although any cases which include other reasons than the weather will not be entitled to the Special refund, CKT shall decide as fair as possible and shall not exploit the rights of decision making. The Special refund will override the Refund amount stated above. Even in the case that the Refund amount is more than the amount of the Special refund, you will still be refunded the amount of the Special refund. 

    The refund shall be made to the credit card you used to purchase tickets through CKT. CKT shall process the payment within 30 days, after CKT receives money from an event organizer or a primary ticket seller.

8. Your Personal Information:

      You agree that CKT will use your personal information submitted by you only for the purpose of providing the services and the after services described in clause 1.

        1)  Local address shipping (600 JPY):  We can ship to local addresses (hotel, your apartment or your friend's home) at your preferred date. We do not accept Airbnb locations - any damages, delay, failing to receive tickets by shipping to an Airbnb location is solely your responsibility.
