Daivavarna’s Events category is intended to help Customers discover Events reasonably connected with Daivavarna’s devotional, Vedic, Dharmic, traditional, cultural, educational, artistic, agricultural, natural-living, community, and related Marketplace purposes.
Subject to approval, Events may include:
temple programs;
devotional gatherings;
festivals;

scriptural programs;
traditional ceremonies;
cultural celebrations;
lectures;

Daivavarna is not intended to operate as an unrestricted general Event marketplace. Daivavarna may curate Events according to subject, Organizer, venue, purpose, safety, community relevance, Marketplace alignment, legality, and other reasonable factors.
Event Organizers remain primarily responsible for the Event, including lawful operation, venue authorization, safety, capacity, permits, insurance, staffing, contractors, food, transportation where applicable, ticketing obligations, Customer communication, and performance of the Event as represented.
Daivavarna may permit free Events, paid Events, donation-based Events, Direct-Payment Events, or Daivavarna-Processed Event payments depending upon Marketplace functionality and the Event’s approved transaction model.
These Supplemental Terms supplement the General Vendor Terms and Seller Agreement, Marketplace Policies, Fees and Vendor Payouts Policy, Returns, Refunds and Cancellation Policy, Privacy Policy, Reviews and Community Content Policy, Prohibited and Restricted Products, Services and Activities Policy, Classes & Teachers Supplemental Vendor Terms, Accommodations Supplemental Vendor Terms, General Services Supplemental Vendor Terms, and other applicable Supplemental Category Terms.
Nothing in these Supplemental Terms permits an Event, activity, sale, transaction, or Service prohibited by Applicable Law.
