  2. The contract between us

    1. The information on the TSCP Platform is for general informational purposes only and does not constitute an offer that binds TSCP. Upon your selection of the desired products or services offered by the Supplier, we show you the information about these products and services, which information you can use to submit an Order.
    2. Quality of information. We aim to ensure an overall high quality of the information published on the TSCP Platform, although we do not warrant in any way that all information is correct, complete, up-to-date, accessible and tailored to specific customer needs. We also may change, add or remove any information on the Love to Visit Platform at our sole discretion.
    3. Order Amount. We state the total value of the Order (the “Order Amount”), which includes VAT, fees, discounts and other applicable taxes, in the checkout. Special conditions may apply to the Order Amount, as displayed by the Supplier in the product description.
    4. Payment. Following the Order, we show the available currencies and payment methods in the payment process and facilitate such process on behalf of the Supplier with our payment service provider. If we, via our payment service provider, do not receive authorisation for your payment of the Order Amount, we will notify you that the transaction has failed.
    5. Fulfilment of the Order. We do our best to deliver the admission tickets related to the Supplier's products or services (the “Tickets”) to you as soon as possible after successful payment of the Order. However, if it turns out the Supplier is unable to provide the Tickets, the Supplier is entitled to modify or cancel your Order within 48 hours after successful payment, following which the Order Amount will be refunded.
    6. Limitation of liability. The liability of TSCP is at all times limited to the use of the TSCP platform and the facilitation of the Agreement and will never extend to any damages suffered in relation to the use of the products or services provided by the Supplier. Any damages for which we are liable will not exceed the total Order Amount.
    7. No guarantee or warranty. We do not provide you with a guarantee or warranty relating to:
      1. the availability, uninterrupted functioning, quality or completeness of the TSCP Platform;
      2. the information included on the TSCP Platform, which is solely displayed for information purposes, including the availability of Tickets, currency conversion rates, in particular that this information is correct, complete, and up-to-date;
      3. third-party content or websites that may be available through or linked to the Love to visit Platform.
    8. No guarantor position for Supplier's products or services. We do not assume any responsibility or liability for the products or services offered by the Supplier under the Agreement or information relating to such products or services, or the data forwarded via the TSCP Platform to you by the Supplier or third parties. In addition, although the TSCP Platform is a curated product, it does not constitute and should not be seen as a recommendation or endorsement of the quality, service level, qualification or rating of the Supplier or any of its products or services.
  3. The contract between you and the Merchant / using your Ticket

    1. SCPL will issue the Ticket to you. The Ticket (or the communication in which the Ticket is delivered) will set out the details of the headline deal (including the Merchant's details) and the Experience (i.e. the event or attraction you wish to attend for which the Ticket has been purchased) and details of how to redeem the Ticket with the Merchant.
    2. The Ticket is valid until the expiry date stated on the face of the Ticket upon which it expires and is no longer valid (the “Expiry Date”). After the Expiry Date the Ticket will be void and (i) the Merchant will not provide the Experience; (ii)we will not accept a request to redeem for another Ticket and (iii) you will not be able to receive a refund for your Ticket.
    3. When you redeem a Ticket with a Merchant you enter into a separate contract with the Merchant(“the Merchant Contract”). The Experiences are provided by the Merchant named on the Ticket. The Merchant has a legal duty to supply the Experience inconformity with the terms of the Merchant Contract. Please note that the Merchant is solely responsible for:
      • providing the Experience to you; and
      • the Experience.
    4. If you have any complaint in relation to the Experience you should contact the Merchant directly.
    5. Each Ticket is sold subject to the description on the Platform (including but not limited to the Merchant Contract) which sets out additional specific conditions related to that Experience including, without limitation, terms and conditions concerning estimated delivery dates and times, availability and warranties (each as applicable). We will take reasonable care to check with the Merchant to ensure that all details, descriptions and prices of Experiences appearing on the Platform are correct but please note that the details and descriptions are provided to us by the applicable Merchant and we cannot be held responsible for any inaccuracies. As we aim to keep the Platform as up to date as possible, the information appearing on this Platform at a particular time may not always reflect the position exactly at the moment you placed your order.
    6. The images of the Experiences on the Platform are for illustrative purposes only. Your Experience may vary slightly from those images.
    7. Reproduction, sale, resale or trade of a Ticket is prohibited and we reserve the right to cancel any Ticket, at our discretion, if we believe that you have not complied with the provisions of this clause.
    8. It is at the discretion of the Merchant whether a Ticket can be combined with any other tickets, vouchers, offers, promotions, coupons or gift certificates on redemption of the Ticket at the Merchant.
    9. It is at the discretion of the Merchant whether to accept a Ticket for an alternative Experience to the Experience for which the Ticket was purchased. Where a Ticket is redeemed at a Merchant for an alternative Experience, there is no entitlement to a refund if the Experience received has a value which is less than the Ticket's stated face value.
    10. Except where expressly stated, Tickets can only be redeemed in their entirety and may not be redeemed in part and/or instalments.
    11. Neither we nor the Merchant are responsible for lost or stolen Tickets.
    12. To ensure youget the best service, if after you have redeemed your Ticket with a Merchant, the applicable Merchant informs us that they are no longer able to fulfil your order, we might share your information with an alternative Merchant who is able to provide you with the same or similar Experience as the Experience for which the Ticket was purchased (“Alternative Tickets”). We will inform you if we are able to provide you with Alternative Tickets. If you do not wish to receive the Alternative Tickets, please respond to the communication advising you of the Alternative Tickets, or otherwise contact us, to let us know.
  4. Electronic Communication

    1. Applicable laws require that some of the information or communications we send to you should be in writing. When using the Site, you accept that communication with us will be mainly electronic. We will contact you by e-mail or provide you with information by posting notices on the Site. For contractual purposes, you agree to this electronic means of communication and you acknowledge that all contracts, notices, information and other communications that we provide to you electronically comply with any legal requirement that such communications be in writing.
  5. Price and Delivery Charges

    1. The price of any Ticket or Tickets and any applicable delivery charge will be as quoted on the Site from time to time (inclusive of VAT (if applicable)), except in cases of obvious error as set out in clause 5.2 below.
    2. It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the Tickets listed on the Site may be incorrectly priced. We are under no obligation to issue any Ticket to you at the incorrect (lower) price. Furthermore, Merchants are not obliged to accept any issued Ticket if the pricing error was obvious and unmistakable and could have reasonably been recognised by you as a mispricing. In these instances, you will receive a full refund of the price paid for the Ticket.
    3. For certain Tickets, we may charge an administration fee. If an administration fee is charged, this will be indicated on the Platform. Administration fees are calculated based on the total value of the order you are placing and not related to the price of a specific Ticket.
  6. Availability and Delivery

    1. Your order for a Ticket will be fulfilled within a reasonable timeframe, unless there are exceptional circumstances beyond our control (see clause 12 as a whole below), however, you acknowledge that delivery is subject to liaison with the Merchant and we are not liable for any delay caused by the Merchant. Tickets will be at your risk from the point of delivery (whether electronic or physical).
    2. If you have not received your Tickets by the estimated delivery date, please contact the Merchant as soon as possible.
    3. In some cases, delivery will only be made to the billing address provided at checkout. If the delivery address and the billing address do not match in these cases, a Merchant Contract will not be formed and a refund of the price paid will be issued.

    2. If you have a question or complaint about the Platform, how we operate, or a Ticket that you have not yet used you can contact us as follows: via the contact us form on the website
    3. We aim to provide an initial response to all questions and complaints within 72 hours. Please note that as the Merchant has specialist knowledge of the Experience, when you contact us we may need to, and you agree that we may, contact the Merchant asking them to look into your concern and, if we deem it appropriate, ask them to reply to you directly.
  8. Cancellations / Refunds

    1. No statutory right of withdrawal. The statutory legal reflection period and the right of withdrawal (as included in the EU Directive on distant sales) do not apply to contracts for services to be performed on a specific date or within a specific period, including Tickets offered via the Platform.
    2. Cancellations, changes and refunds. Lovetovisit.com is bound by the cancellation and amendment policies of the suppliers of the products for which we sell tickets. The majority of these suppliers have a no amendments and no cancellations policy and as such Lovetovisit is unable to process amendments or cancellations unless permitted by the supplier. Where a cancellation is approved by the supplier, a fee equal to 5% of the Order Amount applies to cover the costs of cancellations and refunds.
