SIIA will follow all Covid-19 regulations and restrictions applicable at the time of the event as set by the U.S. Government (USG) and the state, locality and venue in which the event will be hosted. If SIIA is unable to hold the event due to restrictions or regulations imposed by the USG, the host state or the event venue, SIIA will credit the registration fee towards a virtual or hybrid event, or another SIIA event of the registrant’s choice.
Should the planned in-person meeting shift to a hybrid or fully virtual event due to Covid-19, registration can be transferred to another colleague at no charge. Registration fees are not refundable.
Exhibit and sponsorship fees are not refundable. Should the planned in-person meeting shift to a hybrid event exhibit and/or sponsorship agreements shall be unaffected. If the event shifts to a fully virtual event, participants will be able to transfer their sponsorship or exhibit payment to a SIIA future live or hybrid event if necessary.
During the event, the host venue, and not SIIA, will enforce the Covid-19 guidelines. These guidelines may or may not include wearing mask indoors and in conference rooms, providing proof of vaccination or recent testing, and/or administering onsite rapid testing.
SIIA may update or otherwise modify these requirements at any time as we deem prudent to best protect the health and safety of attendees, staff and others. Attendees must comply with these policies as communicated by SIIA and the event venue.
SIIA cannot be held liable for COVID-19 cases resulting from attending SIIA’s in-person events. Attendees of SIIA in-person events must follow the stated policies, regulations and restrictions while participating in the event and related official activities. Failure to comply with all safety protocols and requirements as communicated by SIIA or an official event venue – or related directions from SIIA or the venue on-site – may result in the loss of the right to attend or participate in SIIA events, including forfeiting any registration fees paid.
*If registrant provides proof of a Covid-19 diagnosis within 10-days of the event date and can no longer travel, substitutes will be permitted – or the registration can be applied to a future event. If a refund is requested, a 75% refund will be provided, less the 25% processing fee.
Refund request must be made in writing to Jgerald@siia.net in a timely manner to be considered.
