2. What You Are Booking

When you purchase a ticket or make a booking through JoEs TaBLe, you are purchasing access to a JoEs TaBLe concept experience managed and brokered by CK Events Management & Hospitality Group LLC. CK LLC designs the event concept, manages the event production process, selects and contracts with venue and culinary partners, and coordinates the overall guest experience. CK LLC is not the owner or operator of the venue at which the event is held, does not employ the culinary team, and does not prepare or serve food or beverages.

The venue at which your event is held is an independently licensed food service establishment. The culinary team are independent professional contractors. Each independent operator is solely responsible for compliance with all applicable regulations governing their domain, including food safety, alcohol service licensing, and premises safety. They are not agents, employees, or partners of CK LLC.

Your contract is with CK Events Management & Hospitality Group LLC. You do not enter into a direct contract with the venue operator or the culinary team. CK LLC will use reasonable endeavours to facilitate communication between clients and the relevant independent operator where a claim arises from their domain of responsibility. This does not constitute a guarantee of the venue operator's or culinary team's obligations and does not expand CK LLC's own liability beyond the limits set out in Section 2.5.

2.1 Booking and Payment Terms

A booking is confirmed when CK LLC issues a written booking confirmation and the applicable deposit or full payment has been received. CK LLC reserves the right to decline any booking at its sole discretion prior to issuing a booking confirmation. All prices are stated in the currency specified in the booking confirmation. Payment is due in accordance with the payment schedule set out in the booking confirmation.

Corporate and business clients will be invoiced in accordance with the applicable invoicing matrix. CK LLC does not charge VAT on services invoiced to business clients. Business clients are responsible for self-assessing any applicable local taxes in their own jurisdiction in accordance with applicable law. Payment terms are net 14 days from invoice date unless otherwise agreed in writing.

Individual ticket purchases require full payment at the time of booking unless a deposit arrangement is expressly confirmed in writing by CK LLC. All prices are inclusive of any applicable fees as stated at the point of purchase.

2.2 Cancellation and Refund Policy

Cancellation requests must be submitted in writing to CK LLC. The cancellation date is the date on which CK LLC receives written notice.

For corporate and business clients: cancellation thirty or more days before the event date, fifty percent of amounts received is retained and fifty percent refunded; cancellation fourteen to twenty-nine days before the event date, seventy-five percent retained and twenty-five percent refunded; cancellation fewer than fourteen days before the event date, one hundred percent retained with no refund; cancellation fewer than forty-eight hours before the event date, one hundred percent retained plus any documented costs CK LLC has incurred specifically on account of the booking.

Headcount reductions notified fourteen or more days before the event date will be refunded at the per-person rate for the confirmed reduction. Headcount reductions notified fewer than fourteen days before the event date are not eligible for refund. The minimum billable headcount is the headcount confirmed in the booking confirmation unless a reduction is agreed in writing by CK LLC.

For individual ticket buyers: cancellation eight or more days before the event date, full refund of all amounts received; cancellation seven days or fewer before the event date, no cash refund, but the ticket remains fully transferable to another individual for the same event upon written notice to CK LLC at least twenty-four hours prior.

Where CK LLC and a client agree different cancellation terms in a signed booking confirmation for a specific event, those terms prevail over this default schedule for that booking only.

2.3 CK Cancellation and Force Majeure

Where CK LLC cancels a confirmed event due to venue or culinary partner withdrawal, CK LLC will notify the client as soon as reasonably practicable and offer a full refund of all amounts received. Venue partner withdrawal is a separate and distinct cancellation ground from force majeure and CK LLC's liability in that case is limited to a full refund of amounts received.

CK LLC is not liable for failure or delay where such failure results from a force majeure event, meaning any event outside the reasonable control of both parties that is unforeseeable and irresistible at the time the obligation was assumed, including without limitation natural disaster, flood, fire, storm, government order, pandemic or epidemic declared by a competent public health authority, civil unrest, acts of war, terrorism, or commercial embargo. Venue partner withdrawal does not constitute a force majeure event.

Where a force majeure event prevents delivery of a confirmed event, CK LLC will notify the client as soon as reasonably practicable. For corporate and business clients, CK LLC will, at its sole discretion based on operational capacity, provide either a full refund of amounts received or a credit voucher applicable to a future event of equivalent value. Any credit voucher is valid for twenty-four months from the date of issue; if CK LLC has not scheduled an event of equivalent value within that period, the client may elect to receive a full cash refund instead. For individual ticket buyers, a force majeure cancellation entitles the buyer to a full cash refund of the ticket price paid. CK LLC's liability in a force majeure scenario is limited to these remedies.

2.4 Independent Operator Notice and Allergens

Any claim arising from the physical condition of the venue, food preparation, food handling, allergen management, or the conduct of service staff relates to the domain of the independent venue operator or culinary contractor responsible for those activities. If you have a claim of this nature, CK LLC will provide reasonable assistance in identifying the relevant independent operator, limited to providing available contact information. CK LLC does not assume any investigative, mediation, or legal obligation in connection with such claims.

Guests with food allergies, intolerances, or dietary requirements that pose a risk to their health are advised to contact the relevant independent venue operator or culinary team directly before the event. CK LLC does not prepare or handle food and cannot guarantee the absence of allergens at any JoEs TaBLe event. Responsibility for allergen management rests exclusively with the independent culinary contractor and venue operator responsible for food preparation at the relevant event.

For individual consumers resident in the European Union or the United Kingdom, disputes may be referred to the competent courts of the consumer's country of habitual residence or to an applicable alternative dispute resolution scheme.

2.5 Limitation of Liability for Event Services

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, CK LLC's total liability to corporate and business clients arising out of or in connection with any event or booking, whether in contract, tort, or otherwise, is limited to the total amounts received from that client in connection with the relevant event. CK LLC is not liable to corporate and business clients for any indirect, consequential, special, or economic loss arising out of or in connection with any event or booking, including but not limited to loss of profit, loss of business, loss of anticipated savings, or loss of data.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, CK LLC's liability to individual ticket buyers for any claim not arising from CK LLC's own direct negligence is limited to the value of the ticket or booking fee paid. CK LLC is not liable to individual ticket buyers for any indirect, consequential, or economic loss arising from attendance at or cancellation of a JoEs TaBLe event.

Nothing in these Terms and Conditions excludes, limits, or restricts CK LLC's liability for: death or personal injury caused by its direct negligence; fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; or any other statutory or common law liability that cannot be excluded, limited, or restricted under applicable mandatory law.

3. Scope of Consultancy Services

Clandestino Kitchen provides the following categories of consultancy and licensing services to hospitality and food and beverage operators: concept and strategy consultancy, delivered on a fixed-fee or day-rate basis; operational management consultancy, delivered as an engagement over a defined period; and brand and concept licensing, providing fee-based access to CK's methodology and operational standards.

Clandestino Kitchen does not sell event tickets, take event bookings, or contract directly with end consumers of dining experiences. Engagements under this section are entered into with hospitality and food and beverage operators as clients. The specific scope, deliverables, and fee structure for each engagement are set out in an individual Engagement Letter or licensing agreement, which forms part of these Terms when accepted by both parties.

3.1 Payment and Engagement Structure

Consultancy engagements are billed on a fixed-fee, day-rate, or licensing-fee basis as specified in the applicable Engagement Letter or licensing agreement. Payment terms, including any upfront or milestone payments, are set out in that document. All fees are quoted exclusive of applicable taxes unless otherwise stated.

Either party may terminate a consultancy engagement on the notice period specified in the applicable Engagement Letter. Where no notice period is specified, either party may terminate on thirty days' written notice. Fees for work performed and deliverables provided up to the date of termination remain payable. Late payments may be subject to statutory interest under applicable law. CK LLC reserves the right to suspend services for accounts in arrears.

3.2 Intellectual Property

All intellectual property rights in the CK brand, including but not limited to the Clandestino Kitchen name, logo, methodology, operational standards, and Pipeline, CK's proprietary operational technology, are the exclusive property of CK Events Management & Hospitality Group LLC. No licence to use, reproduce, or adapt any of the above is granted except as expressly set out in a signed licensing agreement.

3.3 Confidentiality

Both parties agree to maintain the confidentiality of any information disclosed during the course of an engagement that is identified as confidential or that would reasonably be understood to be confidential. This obligation survives the termination of any service agreement.

3.4 Limitation of Liability for Consultancy

To the fullest extent permitted by law, CK LLC's total liability for any claim arising out of or in connection with a consultancy engagement shall not exceed the total fees paid by the client for the specific engagement giving rise to the claim. CK LLC is not liable for indirect, consequential, or incidental losses, including but not limited to loss of revenue, loss of opportunity, or reputational damage.

4. Data Protection

CK Events Management & Hospitality Group LLC is the data controller for all personal data collected in connection with your booking, engagement, or attendance at any CK LLC event. Personal data is collected and processed in accordance with CK LLC's Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference. Requests relating to personal data should be directed to compliance@clandestino.kitchen.

4.1 Governing Law and Jurisdiction

These Terms and Conditions are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Wyoming, United States of America, without regard to its conflict of law principles. Any legal action or proceeding arising under these Terms shall be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Wyoming, and the parties hereby irrevocably consent to the personal jurisdiction and venue therein. Nothing in this clause deprives consumers of their mandatory statutory rights under the consumer protection laws of their country of habitual residence. For individual consumers resident in the European Union or the United Kingdom, nothing in this governing law clause affects your right to bring proceedings in the courts of your country of residence or to benefit from the mandatory consumer protection provisions of the law of your country of residence.

If any provision of these Terms is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, such provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid and enforceable. If modification is not possible, the relevant provision shall be severed, and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect.

4.2 Entire Agreement

These Terms and Conditions, together with the booking confirmation or Engagement Letter issued by CK LLC in respect of your specific event or engagement, constitute the entire agreement between the parties in relation to that booking or engagement and supersede all prior representations, communications, negotiations, or agreements, whether written or oral, relating to the subject matter of that booking or engagement. No variation of these Terms and Conditions shall be effective unless agreed in writing and signed by an authorised representative of CK LLC.

4.3 Amendments

CK LLC reserves the right to update these Terms and Conditions at any time. The version applicable to your booking or engagement is the version in force at the date your booking is confirmed or your Engagement Letter is signed. CK LLC will publish the current version at clandestino.kitchen/terms. Material changes will be communicated to clients with confirmed bookings or active engagements before taking effect.
