The Application Form (defined below) and these Event Partner Terms and Conditions (collectively, the “Agreement”) by and between the entity sponsoring an Event (“Event Partner” or “You”) and the Snowflake entity identified on the Application Form (“Snowflake” or “We”) governs the sponsorship of and participation in an Event.

By submitting an Application Form agreeing to sponsor an Event, You are accepting the terms and conditions below. These terms supplement the Snowflake Partner Network (SPN) Program Agreement or other written agreement governing your participation in the SPN Program. If you sign up to sponsor an Event using an email address from your employer or another entity, or if you are an employee, contractor or agent of an entity, then (a) you will be deemed to represent that entity, (b) you hereby bind that entity to this agreement and represent and warrant that you have authority to do so and (c) the word “You” or “Event Partner” below will refer to that entity. The rights and benefits granted under this Agreement, including any benefits of sponsorship, are expressly conditioned upon acceptance by such authorized personnel. The Agreement is enforceable like any written agreement signed by You.

1. EVENT PARTNERSHIP PACKAGES

Each Event and related sponsorship packages and benefits (“Package”) are more fully described in the application form or online sign-up flow referencing this Agreement (the “Application Form”).

2. PAYMENT

Event Partner agrees to pay all fees specified in the applicable Application Form. Unless otherwise set forth in the Application Form, payment is due Net 30 days from the date of Snowflake’s invoice or prior to the start of the Event, whichever is earlier. All event fees for selected packages or MPOs will be invoiced at the amounts listed on the Event Partner Application Form. Except as otherwise stated in this Agreement, payments are non-refundable and payment obligations non-cancelable. Snowflake reserves the right to revoke or prevent Event Partner’s Event participation in the event of late payment. Event Partner is solely responsible for obtaining any license(s) and/or permit(s) it requires and for any expenses it incurs in order to participate in the Event. Fees do not include taxes, levies and duties, including for example, any sales, use, GST, value-added, withholding or similar transactional tax (“Taxes”). Event Partner is solely responsible for the payment of all Taxes, associated with its purchase and use of the Package. If required by law, Snowflake will invoice and collect the Taxes for which Event Partner is responsible under this Agreement. Taxes will not be deducted from the payments to Snowflake, except as required by applicable law, in which case Event Partner will increase the amount payable as necessary so that, after making all required deductions and withholdings, Snowflake receives and retains (free from any liability for taxes) an amount equal to the amount it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made. Event Partner will provide its VAT/GST Registration Number(s) (if applicable) on the Event Partner Application Form to confirm the business use of the Package. Any purchase order submitted by Event Partner is for its internal purposes only, and Snowflake rejects, and in the future is deemed to have rejected, any purchase order terms included in such purchase orders, which will have no effect.

11. CANCELLATION BY EVENT PARTNER

In consideration for expenses incurred by Snowflake in connection with the Event and Snowflake’s lost or deferred opportunity to provide sponsorship opportunities to others, all fees are deemed fully earned and non-refundable except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement or in an Application Form. Event Partner acknowledges the difficulty in determining a precise value for services rendered and expenses incurred by Snowflake for the Event, and of ascertaining damages incurred by Snowflake if Event Partner cancels its participation in the Event and agrees that the full value of the fee is a fair assessment of the same. The amounts due from Event Partner under this Agreement as of the effective date of any cancellation belong to Snowflake and represent an agreed measure of compensation and are not to be deemed or construed as a forfeiture or penalty.

12. CANCELLATION BY SNOWFLAKE; CHANGES

Upon Event Partner’s failure to meet any obligations under the Agreement, including but not limited to Event Partner’s failure to pay amounts owing under the terms of this Agreement, Snowflake may terminate Event Partner’s participation in the Event. Any such termination is treated as a Cancellation by Event Partner under the terms of this Agreement. If for any reason Snowflake shall determine that the Event or any part may not be held, Snowflake may cancel, relocate or reschedule the Event. In the event of cancellation, Snowflake may in its sole discretion provide choices for a replacement of a similar nature, or a full refund to Event Partner, if requested by Event Partner. If Snowflake assigns Event Partner a space at an Event, Snowflake reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to change the location, size, layout, arrangement and display restrictions of the space. Snowflake reserves the right to update and make changes to the prospectus, including components of the package offerings, at any time prior to the commencement of the Event. If changes to an Event Partner’s Package are material, Snowflake will promptly notify Event Partner of the change(s) and will make reasonable efforts to provide Event Partner a replacement of a similar nature, if requested by Event Partner. No changes in this Section will be deemed a cancellation by Snowflake.

13. RECORDINGS

Event Partner agrees that it will not photograph or record (e.g., in audio or video) any aspect of the Event and will not take screenshots or screen recordings of any aspect of the Event. To the extent Event Partner wishes to use any Snowflake materials (e.g., recordings of the event, screenshots, etc.), it will seek written permission from Snowflake.

14. CONDUCT OF EVENT PARTNER

Event Partner shall conduct its Event participation in a professional manner so as not to be objectionable to Snowflake, other event partners, participants, or the public. Event Partner shall not bring or invite any non registered individuals to the Event or any program, session or other activity related to the Event. If approved by Snowflake, Event Partner shall comply with any additional conditions required by Snowflake, including Event Rules and Regulations.

Event Partner shall not distribute any giveaways, prizes or collateral that would be considered potentially dangerous or destructive. Event Partner shall not advertise, market or promote any services or products that compete with Snowflake. “Promote” includes signage, products, demos, presentations, giveaways, and any other marketing pieces, as well as using naming conventions or other messaging that overlaps or conflicts with Snowflake’s. Event Partner understands that the Event requires tremendous planning, and that Snowflake’s deadlines related to Event Partner’s session components (including session title, abstract and presentations, if applicable) are firm. Event Partner understands they cannot host ancillary events or sessions, including content sessions, that conflict with official conference hours. Event Partner understands that failure to adhere to any deadlines set by Snowflake may result in Snowflake revising or cancelling related elements of Event Partner’s package (including their session), and such failure to comply with stated deadlines will be considered a Cancellation by Event Partner and thus not eligible for any reimbursement of fees paid. Event Partner shall comply with all applicable laws, rules, regulations, ordinances, codes and statutes with respect to the conduct of its exhibit. Snowflake reserves the right to restrict or prohibit exhibits or content which are objectionable or otherwise detract from or are out of keeping with the character of the Event as a whole. Snowflake reserves the right to close, remove or require changes in any exhibit or to remove any of Event Partner’s personnel, agents, representatives, independent contractors, invitees or guests who are deemed detrimental to Snowflake, the Event, other event partners, or the public. Event Partner also agrees to abide by any terms or requirements of the event location provider or exhibit space.

This section applies to in-person events. Participating at in-person events is voluntary, and participants will be required to meet any government-mandated health and safety requirements (including vaccination requirements), or any health and safety requirements imposed by the host or venue, to attend. Partner (including on behalf of its participants) acknowledges and agrees that: (i) there may be inherent risks with attending in-person events and (ii) in-person event participation includes possible exposure to and illness from infectious diseases.
