We believe our community should be truly open and welcoming to everyone.
We are committed to providing a friendly, safe, and respectful environment for all, regardless of race, colour, gender, gender expression or identity, sexual orientation, disability, ethnicity, or religion.
This code of conduct outlines our expectations for participant behaviour, as well as the consequences for unacceptable behaviour. We expect all event participants (staff, sponsors, volunteers, speakers, attendees, and other guests) to abide by this code at all venues and event-related social events.
All determinations of appropriate or inappropriate behaviour are in Informa's sole discretion and the decision(s) of the Informa representatives on-site will be final.
Many event venues are shared with members of the public. Please be respectful to all patrons of these locations.
