Legal
Terms of Use
Goliga Books, Inc. (event: MOSS KOGEI Kyoto) / mosskogei.com
The Japanese version above is the authoritative text. This English version is a reference translation; if the two differ, the Japanese version governs.
1. Application
These Terms of Use ("Terms") apply to all relations between Goliga Books, Inc. ("we," "us," "the Company") and users ("you") in connection with our website (https://mosskogei.com, "the Site") and the "MOSS KOGEI Kyoto" event ("the Event"). By using the Site or purchasing any ticket, product, or service, you are deemed to have agreed to these Terms.
2. Definitions
"The Company" means Goliga Books, Inc., which operates the Site and is the seller of record and party to the sales contract.
"The Organizer" means the MOSS KOGEI Kyoto Executive Committee, which organizes the Event and runs it at the venue.
"Services" means the tickets, products, and services sold by the Company through the Site (admission, workshops, talks, tea ceremonies, dining programs, merchandise, etc.).
"You" means any individual or entity that uses the Site or purchases or uses the Services.
3. Agreement to these Terms
Please use the Services only after agreeing to these Terms. Minors must obtain the consent of a parent or legal guardian.
4. Purchases
You may reserve or purchase tickets, products, and services following the steps shown on the Site.
A sales contract is formed when we accept your order and notify you (e.g., by confirmation email).
Items and services may have capacity or stock limits; once reached, we cannot accept further purchases.
Tickets are valid only for the specified date, time, and content. Resale, transfer, duplication, and other misuse are prohibited.
Tickets obtained or transferred by means not authorised by the Company or the Organizer are void, and admission will be refused without refund.
E-tickets cannot be reissued. If your confirmation email does not arrive, please contact us using Section 17.
5. Prices and payment
Prices are shown on each product page. Final prices shown to consumers are displayed as a tax-inclusive total.
Payment methods, timing, and other sales conditions are as set out on the Site and in the Specified Commercial Transactions Act Disclosure.
Payments are processed through a payment provider designated by the Company. The available payment methods are shown at checkout and in the Specified Commercial Transactions Act Disclosure.
6. Cancellation and refunds
Because the Event is a date-, capacity-, and content-limited occasion, the following applies (individual product pages may set specific terms, which prevail):
Cancellations, changes, and refunds requested for your own convenience cannot, as a rule, be accepted.
Goods (crafts, etc.) and programs involving commissioning or preparation by makers cannot be returned, exchanged, or refunded for your own convenience.
If goods are damaged or defective, or where the cause is attributable to us, contact us within 7 days of delivery; we will exchange or refund at our expense.
Cooling-off does not apply to mail-order (online) sales.
Where this section differs from the returns terms in the Specified Commercial Transactions Act Disclosure, that Disclosure prevails.
7. Changes, cancellation of the Event, and refunds
The Company and the Organizer may change performers, program, venue, or schedule for unavoidable reasons. Partial program changes and other minor changes are not subject to refund.
If the Event or an individual program is cancelled, the full ticket price will be refunded to the original payment method within 30 days of the cancellation decision.
If the date, time, or content changes materially, we will announce it on the Site and by email and refund the full ticket price to customers who request it.
The same treatment as the preceding two items applies where all or part of the Event cannot be held due to force majeure (natural disaster, epidemic, government order, etc.).
If an outdoor program is cancelled due to weather, the price of that program is refunded. So long as the Event itself takes place, the admission portion is not refundable.
Refunds are made to the original payment method as a rule, and any associated fees are borne by the Company.
8. Admission and conduct at the venue
You must follow the rules of the Company, the Organizer, and the venue (SHOZAN KYOTO), and the directions of staff. The following are prohibited:
Causing nuisance or harm to other guests, performers, makers, staff, or third parties
Touching or damaging exhibited works, photography or recording outside designated areas, or filming for commercial purposes
Bringing in dangerous or prohibited items, or otherwise disrupting order at the venue
If you breach this section, the Company or the Organizer may refuse admission or require you to leave, without refund.
9. Photography and likeness
The Company and the Organizer may photograph, film, and record within the venue for documentation and publicity. Visitors may appear in such material.
Photographs, video, and audio may be used to document and publicise the Event and related future activities (the Site, social media, print, and provision to press).
By entering the venue, you are deemed to consent to the use described above.
If you do not wish your likeness to be used, please tell venue staff or contact us using Section 17, and we will accommodate this so far as reasonable.
Your own photography and recording is permitted only in designated places and by designated means, and not for commercial use. Photography of individual works may be prohibited at the maker’s request.
10. Prohibited acts
You must not violate laws or these Terms, infringe the rights of the Company, the Organizer, or third parties, interfere with the operations of the Company or the Organizer, or engage in unauthorized access or similar acts.
11. Intellectual property
All intellectual property rights in the trademarks, logos, text, photographs, video, designs, and other content relating to the Site and the Event belong to the Company, the Organizer, the exhibiting makers, or other rightful owners. You may not reproduce, republish, modify, distribute, or otherwise use them without the rights holder’s prior written consent.
12. Disclaimer and limitation of liability
We do not warrant the fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, or completeness of the Services.
We are not liable for loss you incur at the venue due to reasons attributable to you, or for loss due to reasons not attributable to us.
Except in cases of our willful misconduct or gross negligence, our liability is limited to the amount you paid us. This limitation does not apply to the extent it conflicts with the Consumer Contract Act or other mandatory law.
13. Exclusion of anti-social forces
You represent and warrant that you are not, and have no relationship with, organized crime groups or other anti-social forces. If this proves untrue, we may suspend the Services and terminate the contract without notice.
14. Personal information
Your personal information is handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy (https://mosskogei.com/legal/privacy).
15. Severability
If any provision of these Terms, or part of one, is held invalid or unenforceable under the Consumer Contract Act or other law, the remaining provisions and the remainder of that provision continue in full force.
16. Governing law and jurisdiction
These Terms are governed by the laws of Japan. Any dispute between us and you relating to the Services or these Terms shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Tokyo District Court as the court of first instance.
17. Changes to these Terms and contact
We may amend these Terms as needed. Amended Terms take effect when posted on the Site; material changes will be announced by appropriate means.
