9. An official visa letter of invitation will only be issued once a delegate place has been paid for in advance.
10. Changes to any aspect of the conference (including programme) may be necessary due to events outside the control of Profile Productions or the ALPHA Scientists Executive Committee. The organisers therefore reserve the right to make any necessary amendments to the programme or timings of the event.
11. The details of registered delegates (name, place of work and occupation) will be placed on the attendee list and in the app which will be given to sponsoring companies and exhibitors and made available to delegates onsite at the conference. Delegates who do not wish to be included on this list should advise at the time of booking.
12. There will be photography and/or video production taking place during the conference and the resulting images may be used for promotional purposes online and/or in printed materials. Delegates who do not wish their images to be included in these materials should contact the organisers by email at alpha@profileproductions.co.uk prior to the event.
13. In the event of the organisers being unable to hold the conference for reasons beyond their control such as public health warnings, community restrictions or epidemics, which result in the format of the conference being changed to an online version, you will be given a fixed period to cancel your registration. Otherwise, your registration will be automatically transferred.
14. Attendance fees will not be refunded in the event of threat of war, terrorism or similar circumstances outside of the organisers’ control, which means neither a face-to-face nor online conference can be held.
