Vendors are strongly encouraged to secure their own insurance.

Failure to carry insurance does not transfer any liability to CSC.


COUNTERFEIT PRODUCT(S)

Vendors must ensure that all products displayed or sold at the event are genuine and not counterfeit. CSC holds no responsibility for verifying the authenticity of the Vendor’s products. The Vendor agrees to remove any counterfeit items if requested by CSC. If a Vendor is found selling counterfeit items, they may be removed from the event without refund or compensation.

VENDOR RESPONSIBILITY

Vendors are accountable for their booth staff and any actions taken by their representatives. Vendor passes are non-transferable. Misconduct by Vendor personnel may result in removal from the event and forfeiture of their booth.


REFUND POLICY

Once the Vendor’s application and payment have been accepted, rental fees are non-refundable under any circumstances.

CLEAN-UP

Vendors must remove all garbage and leave their booth space clean after tear-down. Failure to do so may result in additional charges.


CSC PROMO CODE PROGRAM

For every use of the code, the Vendor will receive a $3 credit, which can be applied toward the cost of their booth or paid out after the event. Credits will accumulate up to 24 hours before the event’s start. While CSC may offer its own ticket promotions to increase attendance, these promotions will not affect the Vendor’s credit earnings.

The Vendor is responsible for any damage caused to the venue, its fixtures, or equipment during the event, move-in, or tear-down. Any damage identified will be billed to the Vendor at repair or replacement cost. Vendors are advised to take care while setting up and dismantling their displays to avoid such charges.

GOVERNING AUTHORITY COMPLIANCE

In the event that the fire marshal or any other governing authority restricts or prohibits the placement of booths in specific areas of the event venue, CSC will make reasonable efforts to provide an alternative booth location.
