Terms of use

About these terms

BackstageIL (www.backstageil.com) is a free website with technical information about performance venues in Israel, made for production crews. By using the site you accept these terms. If you don't accept them, please don't use the site.

The information is a starting point

The information comes from public sources, the venues, site surveys and crews who worked there. It may be incomplete, out of date or wrong, and venues change their equipment and rules.

Each hall shows where its information comes from and when it was last checked. Stage measurements marked as not yet confirmed with the venue have not been checked with the venue.

Confirm with the venue

Before a load-in, confirm with the venue's technical staff everything that matters for safety or planning: rigging points and loads, power, stage size, access and house rules.

Never rely on this site alone for rigging, structural loads or electrical work. Those decisions belong to qualified people on site, following the venue's instructions and the law.

No warranty, limited liability

The site is provided free of charge and as is, without any warranty. To the extent the law allows, BackstageIL and the people who run it are not liable for any damage, direct or indirect, that results from using the site or relying on its information, including costs, delays or lost income.

Nothing in these terms limits liability that the law does not allow to be limited.

Venue names

Venue and hall names, and any trademarks, belong to their owners and are used only to identify the venues. BackstageIL is independent and is not affiliated with or endorsed by any venue.

What you send us

When you send photos, corrections or recommendations, you confirm that you have the right to share them, and you allow BackstageIL to publish, edit and keep them on the site free of charge. We may decline or remove anything. Please don't send photos that show people, or anyone's personal details.

Places near venues

Places in the Nearby section are listed for convenience. BackstageIL doesn't check or stand behind their services. A paid listing is always marked as sponsored.

Vendors directory

Vendors in the vendors directory give their own details. BackstageIL doesn't check vendors or stand behind their services, and a listing is not a recommendation. Any agreement with a vendor is between you and the vendor.

Corrections and removal

If something is wrong, or you represent a venue or a place and want information changed or removed, write to info@backstageil.com. We handle requests as quickly as we can.

Using the information

You're welcome to use the information for your own work and to link to any page. Please ask us before copying the site's content in bulk or republishing it as a database.

Changes and law

We may update these terms; the date above shows the current version. These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Israel, and the courts of Tel Aviv-Yafo have exclusive jurisdiction.
