If you use this Site to submit Purchases for or on behalf of a third party ("Third Party"), you are responsible for any error in the accuracy of information provided in connection with such use. In addition, you must inform the Third Party of all Terms and Conditions applicable to all products or services acquired through this Site, including all rules and restrictions applicable thereto.

"Liftopia", "Liftopia.com", "Ltibooking" and any and all other marks appearing on this Site are trademarks of Catalate Commerce, Inc. in the United States and other jurisdictions ("Trademarks"). You may not use, copy, reproduce, republish, upload, post, transmit, distribute or modify the Trademarks in any way, including in advertising or publicity pertaining to distribution of materials on this Site, without Liftopia's prior written consent. The use of Trademarks on any other Web site or network computer environment is prohibited.
Together with the Privacy Policy, these terms and conditions constitute the entire agreement (collectively, the "Agreement") between you and each Covered Party and supersedes any prior understandings or agreements (whether oral or written) regarding the subject matter, and may not be amended or modified except in writing or by making such amendments or modifications available on this Site. If any provision of this Agreement is found to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions will not in any way be affected or impaired.
Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of the Site, or to any products or services sold or distributed by Liftopia will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court, except that you may assert claims in small claims court if your claims qualify. The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this agreement.
There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited. However, an arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court (including injunctive and declaratory relief or statutory damages), and must follow the terms of these Terms and Conditions as a court would.
To begin an arbitration proceeding, you must send a letter requesting arbitration and describing your claim to us at our address provided on the Site. The arbitration will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its rules, including the AAA's Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes. The AAA's rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA's rules. We will reimburse those fees for claims totaling less than $10,000 unless the arbitrator determines the claims are frivolous. Likewise, Liftopia will not seek attorneys' fees and costs in arbitration unless the arbitrator determines the claims are frivolous. You may choose to have the arbitration conducted by telephone, based on written submissions, or in person in the county where you live or at another mutually agreed location.
We each agree that any dispute resolution proceedings will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated or representative action. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration we each waive any right to a jury trial. We also both agree that you or we may bring suit in court to enjoin infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights. In such case, the internal laws of the State of California shall govern the performance of these Terms and Conditions, without regard to such state's conflicts of laws principles. You consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the courts located in San Francisco, California for any such disputes.
All purchases are final and cannot be canceled, refunded, or transferred to another person, even with a fee. Once you complete a purchase, your credit card will be charged for the amount shown, regardless of whether or not the purchased ticket(s) is/are used. If you purchase a product with a payment plan, you agree to let Liftopia save your credit card information in order to complete all subsequent payments. All tickets and passes are subject to the restrictions described in the product description and/or pickup instructions.
We do not guarantee weather or other conditions, open terrain or number of operating lifts and attractions.
Credit will not be given for any unused Purchases and cannot be used toward any future Purchases.
Tickets are not delivered by mail. Once Liftopia confirms your Purchase, we will provide you access to an electronic voucher. You must print the voucher and present it at the ticket office of the particular resort destination to claim your tickets. The Purchaser whose name appears on the voucher must redeem the ticket(s) in person with a valid photo ID.
All prices and amounts shown on this Site are in U.S. Dollars (USD), unless otherwise noted. The User agrees that all taxes, charges, surcharges, shipping/handling or other fees will automatically be charged to the credit card submitted by the User. Such amounts will be posted on this Site. You agree that your credit card will be charged for the full cost of your Purchase.
Booking Fees are special transaction fees that are imposed on us once we make your reservation. Therefore, these fees are not refundable.
