The vetting process is designed to ensure that all participants are an appropriate fit for the immersive environment of Facility 22. This process includes behavioral and suitability evaluation to help identify individuals whose intentions align with cooperative, respectful role-play and to maintain a safe, controlled, and enjoyable experience for all participants.
Participation in any Facility 22 role-play event requires successful completion of the vetting process. Participants must register for an event prior to submitting a vetting application. Event registration alone does not constitute approval to participate.
Upon registering for an event, participants will be issued a link to complete the required vetting form and schedule a vetting interview.
Participants have seven (7) calendar days from the date the vetting link is issued to:
Complete the vetting form in full, and
Schedule the required vetting interview.
Failure to complete both steps within the required timeframe will result in cancellation of the event registration.
If a participant fails to complete the vetting form or schedule an interview within the seven-day timeframe, the event registration will be cancelled and refunded minus a $100 administrative fee. This fee exists to ensure respect for limited event capacity and the time commitments of the vetting staff.
If a participant completes the vetting process and is declined for reasons other than a no-show, the full ticket price will be refunded.
If a participant no-shows or no-calls for a scheduled vetting interview, the event registration will be refunded minus the $100 administrative fee.
Participants who have been previously vetted and approved by Facility 22 are not required to complete the vetting process again unless otherwise notified. Facility 22 reserves the right to require re-vetting at its discretion.
Participation in Facility 22 events is entirely voluntary. Participants may withdraw from the vetting process at any time; however, withdrawal does not guarantee a refund beyond what is expressly stated in these Terms and Conditions.
All information provided during the vetting process must be accurate and truthful. Misrepresentation of identity, intent, or background may result in immediate disqualification, cancellation of registration, and removal from any event.
Information collected during the vetting process is used solely to assess eligibility and suitability for participation. Facility 22 will not disclose applicant information outside of internal operations except where legally required.
Applicants and participants must demonstrate respectful behavior throughout the vetting and event process. Aggression, harassment, threats, coercion, or discriminatory behavior—whether in-character or out-of-character—are grounds for immediate disqualification and removal.
Participation requires clear communication of personal limits. All physical, emotional, and role-based boundaries will be honored at all times. In-character conduct does not override real-world consent or safety expectations.
Facility 22 operates as a controlled environment. Certain areas may be restricted, monitored, or recorded for safety and operational purposes. Participants must comply with staff instructions and posted safety rules. Violations may result in immediate removal without refund.
Applicants and participants agree not to record, share, or distribute private operational details, procedures, or internal materials related to Facility 22 without written authorization. This includes audio, video, photographic, or written content related to the vetting process or events.
Submission of vetting materials does not guarantee approval. Facility 22 reserves the right to approve, deny, delay, revoke, or condition approval at its sole discretion, with or without explanation. Decisions are final and not subject to appeal. Applicants who are denied may reapply after one (1) year unless otherwise specified.
As part of the vetting process, participants may be required to complete a video or live interview. By registering for an event and submitting vetting materials, participants consent to being contacted for scheduling and conducting this interview. Failure to attend a scheduled interview may result in denial and application of administrative fees as outlined above.
By registering for an event and submitting vetting materials, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agreed to these Terms and Conditions and consent to participation in the vetting process under these policies.
These Terms and Conditions shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Illinois, without regard to conflict-of-laws principles.
Except as otherwise provided in the Arbitration Agreement set forth below, any legal action permitted under these Terms and Conditions—including actions to enforce an arbitration award or pursue claims eligible for small claims court—shall be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located within the State of Illinois. Participants consent to personal jurisdiction and venue in such courts for these limited purposes.
If any provision of these Terms and Conditions is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, such provision shall be severed and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect.
Failure by Facility 22 to enforce any right or provision shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
These Terms and Conditions constitute the entire agreement between the participant and Facility 22 regarding the vetting process and participation and supersede all prior communications or agreements.
Facility 22 reserves the right to modify or update these Terms and Conditions at any time, with or without notice. The version in effect at the time of event registration shall govern unless otherwise required by law. Continued participation constitutes acceptance of any modifications.
In any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms and Conditions, the vetting process, or participation in Facility 22 events, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorney’s fees, court costs, arbitration fees, and related expenses.
Any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms and Conditions, the vetting process, event registration, payment, refunds, or participation in Facility 22 events shall be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration, except as expressly provided below.
Arbitration shall be conducted in the State of Illinois under the rules of the American Arbitration Association (AAA) then in effect. The arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to determine the enforceability and interpretation of this Arbitration Agreement.
The arbitrator may award any relief available under applicable law, including attorney’s fees and costs as provided herein. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
Provisions relating to dispute resolution, arbitration, attorney’s fees, confidentiality, non-disclosure, governing law, venue, and any obligations which by their nature should survive shall survive termination, denial, withdrawal, refund, or completion of participation.
