Here are some essential tips to help you navigate our platform safely and securely.
For EventBookr Advertisers
Protect Your Personal Information
- Be Cautious: Only share personal information that is necessary for the service you provide. Be wary of requests for sensitive data that doesn't relate to your service.
- Secure Accounts: Use strong, unique passwords for your EventBookr account and regularly update them.
- Do not place personal home addresses on your listings. Instead place only your suburb or region.
Communication Safety
- Emails from EventBookr will always include your name and surname, or your your listing name. Emails starting with "Dear EventBookr Customer" or "Important News About Your EventBookr Listing - Act Now" or any email that sounds forceful without specific details about you are either phishing or spam emails. We would recommend you forward such emails to us at support@eventbookr.com immediately.
- Suspicious Messages: Be alert to messages that seem suspicious or off-topic. Never respond to requests to share personal details via email or text.
- EventBookr will never request your password, banking details, any card payment details or other sensitive personal information from you via email, phonecall or text.
Payment Security
- If you decide to create a paid premium listing on EventBookr, please make sure to use our secure payment options directly on our website. We will never request payments to a bank account via email or text. Our entire payment system operates solely on our payment gateway for your security.
- We do not accept EFT bank transfers or untraceable payment methods like cash or cryptocurrencies.
For Site Visitors (Event Planners)
Research The Asdvertiser
- EventBookr is an open public marketplace. Be very diligent when you work with advertisers. Research their business, reviews, social media profiles and overall trading history.
- Verify Authenticity: Ensure that the service provider's details on EventBookr match their official website or social media profiles.
- We offer live chat support and direct email support if you notice suspicious behaviour with one of the advertisers, kindly notify us immediately.
Secure Transactions
- EventBookr is not part of the transaction process and therefor cannot offer transaction protection. The transaction of bookings is between the advertiser and the customer. Please do not transfer monies or share sensitive data to advertisers if you haven't researched their business.
- Be Scam Aware: Be cautious of deals that seem too good to be true. Scammers often lure victims with low prices for high-demand services.
- If you notice suspicious or forceful behaviour from any of our advertisers, kindly notify us as soon as possible via support@eventbookr.com or our live chat support.
Personal Safety
- Meet in Public: If you need to meet a service provider, do it in a public place. Always inform someone about your meeting and take someone along if possible.
- Guard Your Information: Don’t share personal details like home address, financial information, or ID numbers unless absolutely necessary for the service.
