General Terms and Conditions

General Terms and Conditions “ITF@IEDM” (‘Conference’)

Your agreement with imec

This agreement is between imec and the person who completes the Conference online registration form (“you” or “your”).
These Terms govern your online registration, attendance at and/or participation at a Conference. By registering for the Conference you agree that you have read and accepted these Terms and agree to be legally bound by them. If you do not wish to be bound by these Terms, please do not register, attend or participate in the Conference.

Registering on behalf of another

If you are registering on behalf of another person, it is your obligation to make sure that the person attending is aware of these Terms and accepts them. By completing and submitting the registration form you are representing and warranting that you have made the person attending aware of these Terms and that they have accepted these Terms.

Changes or cancellation of a conference

In the unlikely event of postponement, cancellation or requalification into “virtual” of the Conference, for whatever reason, we will not be liable to you for any expenditure, damage or loss incurred by you as a result of the cancellation or postponement.

Admittance to conferences

We, in our sole discretion, and without any liability or obligation to refund, reserve the right to refuse admittance to or to eject from the Conference anyone that we determine:

is behaving in a manner that could disrupt, hinder or cause a nuisance to the Conference or to the enjoyment of any other person or partner at the Conference; represents a security or health & safety risk to the Conference or to any person or partner; and/or fails to comply with, or is likely to fail to comply with, these Terms.

Liability, insurance

You are responsible for arranging your own appropriate insurance cover in connection with your attendance or exhibition at a Conference. We and our related companies will not be liable for any injury or damage to any person or to any real or personal property howsoever caused (except for death or personal injury as a result of our fault or for any other type of liability that cannot by law be excluded or limited).

You acknowledge and agree that views expressed by speakers at or in connection with a Conference are their own and we do not accept any responsibility or liability for any advice given or views expressed during or in connection with a Conference.

Materials shared or distributed at or in connection with a Conference are intended for information purposes only and should not be relied upon by you or others. We and our related companies do not provide any guarantees, conditions or warranties that the materials are complete or accurate and do not accept any responsibility or liability for reliance by you or any person on any aspect of the Conference and/or any information provided at the Conference.

Participants are not allowed to make (audio)visual material of the presentations or speakers at the Conference.

We are not liable if a Conference is, in whole or in part, cancelled, rescheduled or postponed, or for any failure or delay to perform our obligations under these Terms, if such event results from anything beyond our reasonable control (for example, natural disasters, flood, pandemic outbreaks, fire, acts of terror, war, labour strike, extreme weather malicious damage, compliance with any law or governmental order, or mechanical, electronic or communications failure or degradation, or any other emergency) or anything else that renders performance of a Conference, in whole or in part, impracticable, illegal or impossible.

Privacy

We are committed to protecting your personal information. This agreement includes and incorporates by reference our Privacy Statement attached hereto as well as our general imec privacy policy, which explains the types of information collected (including photography, audio and video recording), stored, shared and processed in connection with the relevant Conference, how and why we use such information, who we share it with and your legal rights.
