Booking terms

Online and hybrid events

Your joining link is for you only. Do not share it. You need your own internet connection and a device that can play video. We are not responsible if you cannot join because of a problem with your connection or device.

At the event

You must:

• follow the venue's rules, such as security checks or dress codes – we will tell you about these before the event
• wear your badge and not give it to anyone else
• follow instructions from our staff and the venue's staff, including in an emergency
• tell us before the event if you need any help or adjustments to attend

Our events are for adults at work. We cannot admit anyone under 18.

Look after your belongings. We are not responsible for anything lost, stolen or damaged at the event, unless it was our fault.

Open debate

Our events bring together people with different views. We support free and open debate. Speakers and delegates can share lawful views, including ones that others disagree with.

When we invite a speaker or let someone ask a question, it does not mean we agree with what they say. Speakers' and delegates' views are their own, not Forum Europe's.

We expect everyone to disagree respectfully. We may stop someone speaking, or ask them to leave, if they:

• harass, threaten or abuse anyone
• say anything that breaks the law, such as stirring up hatred
• stop a session from going ahead, for example by shouting down a speaker
• break the Chatham House Rule

Questions and disagreement are welcome. Protests that stop a session from going ahead are not.

Behaviour

Our community rules apply to how you behave at the event, and in Forum Connect if the event uses it. If you break them, or these terms, we may ask you to leave, cancel your booking and refuse future bookings. You will not get a refund.

Filming, photos and recording

Public sessions may be filmed, streamed and photographed, and we may publish what we record. Signs at the event tell you where this happens. Tell a member of staff if you do not want to appear. Our privacy notice explains how we use these recordings.

Some sessions follow the Chatham House Rule. You may use what you hear, but must not say who said it or where they work.

You must not record, film or stream a session yourself unless we say you can.

Our materials

The event name, programme, slides and materials belong to Forum Europe Ltd or the speakers. You must not copy or publish them without permission.
