Part C – Attendee terms
Tickets and pricing 
You will find details of attendee ticket pricing and fees for a Conference <a href="https://websummit.com/tickets" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a>. Ticket prices for a Conference are correct at the time of publication.
We reserve the right to change the ticket prices at any time but any changes will not affect tickets that have already been purchased.
A valid ticket entitles you to entry to the relevant Conference as an Attendee, but does not include any requirements associated with travel to or from the Conference or any accommodation costs incurred and we shall have no liability for such costs or expenses.
In certain cases, free or subsidised tickets may be offered within 30 days of the Conference start date. In these instances, tickets must be assigned within 7 days of receipt of your ticket in accordance with the details provided in the above paragraph.
Delivery 
Once a successful ticket transaction has been completed, tickets are delivered in electronic soft-copy via email to the email address nominated by the Attendee. For some ticket types it may be necessary to complete required information such as the Attendee name or tax identification number before the tickets can be issued.
The ticket acts as a receipt for the transaction and can be used to gain entry to the Conference listed on the ticket. The ticket reference number can be used to access the mobile app, in order to register at the Conference.
All tickets must be assigned to an Attendee, and all Attendee details must be complete within 30 days of receipt of your ticket. For the avoidance of doubt, this includes name, job title, company name and a passport style photo. Ticket reassignment after this date is subject to the Terms.
Discounts 
We may from time to time offer certain discounted ticket promotions to encourage attendance at a Conference. We are not obligated to offer any discounts for a particular Conference and reserve the right to chance or withdraw a discount offer at any time in our sole discretion.
Women in tech tickets: To address any gender imbalance at our Conferences, we may, from time to time, offer free and/or subsidised Conference tickets to Attendees who identify as women (“Women in tech tickets”) at our absolute discretion. It is a strict condition of these promotions that only Attendees who identify as women can gain admission to a Conference using women in tech tickets.
Discounted day tickets: In our efforts to allow young people to attend our Conferences, we may, from time to time, offer free and subsidised tickets to our Conferences from time to time. It is a strict condition of these promotions that only individuals 16 to 23 years of age, inclusive, can gain admission to a Conference using these tickets. Any person redeeming a Discounted Day Ticket must provide relevant identification, such as a Cartão de Cidadão in Portugal or Ontario Photo Card. No name changes for Discounted Day Tickets will be facilitated prior to the commencement of the Conference.
Ticket name changes 
If an Attendee finds that they cannot attend a Conference they must notify us as soon as possible (and in any event no later than 7 days before the commencement of the Conference) by email at: <a href="mailto:info@websummit.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener">info@websummit.com</a> and request a name change on their ticket. We may in our absolute discretion allow the name change. Discounted Day Ticket holders or Women in Tech tickets are not allowed name changes on their tickets.
Service animals 
Please note there are no pets or animals permitted, except service animals.
Minimum age
Our Conferences are not aimed at minors. Therefore, minors under the age of 18 cannot attend the Conference, even if accompanied by an adult or guardian.

Part E – Exhibitor terms
Exhibitors 
We offer space at Conferences to Exhibitors who wish to occupy a location at the Conference and operate a stall where they can exhibit certain goods or services to delegates (an “Exhibit”) at agreed times, subject to these Terms.
The Exhibitor is only permitted to conduct business from its allotted Space and shall not canvass, promote, advertise or solicit for business in any other area of the Venue without our express prior written consent.
The Exhibitor is prohibited from sub-letting the Space without our express prior written consent. If and to the extent that the Exhibitor is permitted to sublet the Space, the Exhibitor shall remain responsible for the Space and shall be liable for any breach of these terms by any party to whom the Space is sublet.
The Exhibitor shall not canvass, promote, advertise or solicit for business on behalf of unrelated Third Parties without our express prior written consent.
The Exhibitor’s operation of the Exhibit at the Conference shall be carried out in full compliance with these Terms.
Location of exhibits 
We retain the right in our absolute discretion to relocate the Exhibits and/or require the Exhibitor to occupy an alternative Exhibit within the specified site at the Conference where we deem it to be necessary in the best interests of the Conference or as may be required on security, health &amp; safety grounds or otherwise.
Standard of upkeep 
The Exhibitor must keep and maintain the interior, exterior, the fittings and equipment installed at the Exhibits in clean, orderly, sanitary and good repair.
Waste 
The exhibitor is responsible for the disposal of all waste products and rubbish and for taking off-site all rubbish generated by it. If required, the Exhibitor shall provide litter bins for the use at the Conference which the Exhibitor must remove from the site at the end of each day. The Exhibitor is also responsible for the periodic clean-up of tables and floors in their Exhibit area and the surrounding area.
Access 
We permit the Exhibitor to operate the Exhibit between the hours as communicated from time to time. The Exhibitor must ensure, to the complete satisfaction of us, that all Exhibits and rubbish are completely dismantled and removed off-site each day of the Conference. The Exhibitor is not entitled to permit anyone, other than its personnel or those having business with the Exhibitor, to have access to the Exhibit area.
Health and safety 
An Exhibitor vending food and beverage must ensure that it is registered with its local food standards and safety office and is, at all times, in compliance with the relevant laws and safety and compliance standards. The Exhibitor must possess and display at its Exhibit a valid licence demonstrating its registration with its local food standards and safety office.
All cooking and heating equipment shall be of a safe and compliant standard. The Exhibitor must ensure that any external gas units are appropriately caged. Such units shall be kept away from public access. The Exhibitor must ensure that its Exhibit is equipped with the proper number, size and type of charged fire extinguishers.

The Exhibitor must not damage or allow its employees to damage the site that is hosting the Conference or the Exhibit or any part thereof. All Exhibitor personnel on site must wear identification badges at all times and must not enter any restricted areas.
Provided equipment by us 
All equipment (screens, laptops, cabling and other electronic equipment, rooms, furniture etc.) supplied by us at the Conference are on a rental basis and no exchange, transfer or refund of ordered items on-site will be permitted. Any complaint regarding rented items or installation must be lodged by emailing <a href="mailto:partnersuccess@websummit.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener">partnersuccess@websummit.com</a> before the opening of the Conference. In respect of items rented on the day, items should be inspected immediately and tested to ensure they work. Otherwise, all items are deemed to be received in good order and condition.
Exhibitors must pay for all damages or losses to equipment supplied to them. The equipment must be insured by the Exhibitor, who will remain liable until our authorised staff have collected the equipment. In case of non-return, the Exhibitor will be required to reimburse us for the full cost of the equipment at the original insurance value.
Cancelled orders are not refundable. Non-standard items may be offered on request, subject to a separate quotation, and are subject to the same terms.
Nothing in these Terms creates or deems to create the relationship of landlord and tenant between us and the Exhibitor nor should these Terms be construed as creating a transfer of a property interest to the Exhibitor nor any greater interest in the Conference in favour of the Exhibitor.
Exhibitor insurance 
Each Exhibitor must effect and maintain with an insurer of repute the level of insurance as set out in the Partnership Agreement, and upon request shall produce to us evidence of the current policy of such insurances and receipts for the premiums payable thereof.
