Terms of use

Plain-language terms. Last updated 2026-11-09.

What this is

Sonatina Events lets people make event pages and invitations, collect RSVPs and email their guests. It is run from Barrie, Ontario, by the team behind Sonatina.ca. By making an account or using the site you agree to these terms.

Your account

You must be 18 or older to make an account. Give a real email address and keep your password private. You are responsible for what happens under your account.

Your events

• You are the host. We are not the organizer of any event and are not responsible for what happens at one. You are responsible for your event being safe, legal and accurate, and for permits, age rules, alcohol rules and accessibility.
• You must have the right to use the words and pictures you post.
• Do not post anything illegal, hateful, threatening, sexually explicit, misleading or fake, or anything meant to trick people out of money or information. Do not post other people’s private information.
• Do not use the site to send spam. Emails you send through the site must be about your event and sent only to people who answered it.
• If you have a guest list, you must look after it: use it only for your event, and delete it when you no longer need it.

Guests

Guests do not need an account. When you answer an event, your name, email address, answer and note go to the host of that event. The host sees them; nobody else does, apart from us when we have to look into a problem.

What we may do

We can hide or remove an event, close an account and refuse sign-ups when someone breaks these terms, when we receive a credible report, or to protect people. We try to tell the host why. We may change or stop parts of the service; we will give notice when it affects events that are already planned.

Tickets and payments

Selling tickets is not available yet. When it is, extra terms for ticket sales will apply and you will see them before you can sell.

Our limits

The service is provided as it is, and we work hard to keep it running but cannot promise it will always be available or error-free. To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for losses from events, from the service being unavailable, or from what hosts and guests do. Nothing here limits rights you have under Canadian law that cannot be limited.

Changes and contact

We may update these terms and will change the date above. If you keep using the site after a change, you accept it. These terms are governed by the laws of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada that apply there. Questions: hello@sonatina.ca.
