By registering for the Event you agree to these terms, which form a binding legal contract between the Event owner and organizer, EVCS Productions Inc., dba Global Strategic Management Institute (“EVCS” or “Owner and Organizer”) and the registered attendee or participant (“you”). If you are registering on behalf of another individual, it is your responsibility to ensure the person attending is aware of these terms and accepts them. By completing the registration on behalf of another individual you are warranting that you have made the attendee or participant aware of these terms and that they have accepted these terms.</p> <p><strong>1 Attendee Requirements</strong></p> <p>1.1 Admittance. Your registration entitles you to admittance to the Event for which you have registered. Any and all other costs associated with your attendance (including without limitation travel and accommodation expenses) shall be borne solely by you, and Event shall have no liability for such costs.</p> <p>1.2 Use of Likeness. By attending the Event you acknowledge and agree to grant Event the right at the Event to record, film, photograph, or capture your likeness in any media now available or hereafter developed and to distribute, broadcast, use, or otherwise globally to disseminate, in perpetuity, such media without any further approval from you or any payment to you. This grant to Event includes, but is not limited to, the right to edit such media, the right to use the media alone or together with other information, and the right to allow others to use or disseminate the media.</p> <p>1.3 Event Content. You acknowledge and agree that Event, in its sole discretion, reserves the right to change any and all aspects of the Event, including but not limited to, the Event name, themes, content, program, speakers, performers, hosts, moderators, venue, and time.</p> <p>1.4 Age Requirements. No one under the age of 21, including children in strollers accompanying their parents, will be admitted.</p> <p>1.5 Identification. All attendees must provide one of form of identification with the name appearing on their registration (business card, license, etc.)</p> <p>1.6 Attendee Badge Usage. Attendee badges must be worn at all times in Event areas.</p> <p>1.7 Visa Requirements. It is the sole responsibility of the attendee to take care of any government visa requirements. Attendees who require an entry visa should allow sufficient time for the application procedure. Attendees should contact the nearest embassy or consulate to determine the appropriate timing of their visa applications.  Event will not contact embassies and consulates on behalf of visa applicants or provide any other assistance relating to visa issues. Failure to obtain a visa in advance of an Event does not constitute a valid basis for obtaining a refund.</p> <p><strong>2 Prohibited Conduct</strong></p> <p>2.1 Limitations on Use. By registering for a EVCS Events pass you agree not to sell, trade, transfer, or share your complimentary code or badge, unless such transfer is granted by the Organizer. By registering for a paid Event Pass, you agree not to share, sell or trade your badge. In the event that EVCS determines that you have violated this policy, Event may cancel your badge(s), retain any payments made by you, report you to law enforcement authorities, and ban you from future Event Events.</p> <p>2.2 Disruptive Conduct. You acknowledge and agree that Event reserves the right to remove you from the Event if EVCS, in its sole discretion, determines that your presence or behavior create a disruption or hinder the Event or the enjoyment of the Event by other attendees. All Event badges are the property of EVCS and must be returned to Event upon request.</p> <p>2.3 Badge Misuse. Attendees wearing badges from previous EVCS Events or falsified badges and/or sharing or swapping badges will be immediately ejected from the Event and banned from future Events. EVCS considers such conduct theft of service, trespassing, and fraud and will report violators to law enforcement authorities. If such conduct is discovered after an Event, violators will be invoiced according to onsite registration pricing and will be required to pay their invoice in full in order to avoid being reported to law enforcement authorities.</p> <p>2.4 Suitcasing. “Suitcasing” refers to the practice of attending a trade show but “working the aisles” from a suitcase or briefcase, soliciting business from other attendees and exhibitors. For the good of the show and the exhibitors supporting the show, the only legitimate place to conduct business during show hours is within a contracted exhibit space on the show floor. Exhibiting companies are encouraged to protect their investment and report any violations to EVCS management. Attendees observed soliciting business in the aisles or other public spaces, or in another company’s booth, will be ejected from the Event and may be banned from future events in EVCS’s sole discretion.</p> <p>2.5 Photography, Recording, Live Streaming, and Videotaping. Attendees may not record or broadcast audio or video of sessions at EVCS Events. EVCS allows cameras on the show floor. Attendees may take pictures within the show for purposes of company or annual reports, company media pieces, marketing materials, etc.</p> <p>2.6 Unethical/Non-Compliant Business Practices. EVCS reserves the right to deny admission to anyone who engages in or is reputed to engage in unethical or non-compliant business practices.</p> <p>2.7 In addition to the requirements and prohibitions set forth in this Section 2, EVCS may also exclude any prospective attendee from registering for or attending any Event, in EVCS’s sole discretion. Furthermore, EVCS reserves the right to cancel, in its sole discretion, any attendee’s registration upon refund of the admission fees paid to EVCS; provided, however, that if an attendee is canceled for violating any prohibition or requirement set forth in this Section 2, EVCS may retain all fees paid.</p> <p><strong>3 Fees & Membership</strong></p> <p>3.1 Payment. The payment of the applicable fees for the Event is due upon registration. If such payment is insufficient or declined for any reason EVCS may refuse to admit you to the Event and shall have no liability in that regard.</p> <p>3.2 Taxes. The fees may be subject to sales tax, value added tax, or other taxes and duties which, if applicable, will be charged to you in addition to the fees. </p> <p><strong>4 Cancellation and Quality Assurance</strong></p> <p>4.1 EVCS strives to provide you with the most productive and effective educational experience possible.
