TERMS AND CONDITIONS

REGARDING INTERNET REGISTRATIONS
Individuals or groups may register for Internet access. Organizations may register for group access without presenting specific registrant names. In such instances the registering organization will be presented a series of user names and passwords to distribute to participants.
Each registrant will receive a user name and password for access. Registrants will be able to change their user names and passwords and manage their accounts.
Internet registrants will enjoy six (6) months access from date of issuance of user name and password.
Only one user (per user name and password) may view or access archived conference. It is not permissible to share user name and password with third parties. Should Internet registrants choose to access post conference content via alternative media (Video iPOD™, Data-DVD and Flash Drive), this individual use limitation applies. It is not permissible to share alternative media with third parties.
User name and password use will be monitored to assure compliance.
Each Internet registration is subject to a "bandwidth" or capacity use cap of 5 gb per user per month. When this capacity use cap is hit, the registration lapses. Said registration will be again made available at start of next month so long as registration period has not lapsed and subject to same capacity cap.
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY POLICY
Unauthorized sharing of Congress content via Internet access through the sharing of user names and passwords or via alternative media (8GB Video iPOD™ Nano, Data-DVD and Flash Drive) through the sharing of said media is restricted by law and may subject the copyright infringer to substantial civil damages. The Congress aggressively pursues copyright infringers.
If a registrant needs the ability to share Congress content within his or her organization, multiple Congress registrations are available at discounted rates.
The Congress will pay a reward for information regarding unauthorized sharing of Congress content. The reward will be one half of any recovery resulting from a copyright infringement (less legal fees and other expenses related to the recovery) up to a maximum reward payment of $25,000. The payment will be made to the individual or individuals who in the opinion of our legal counsel first provided the factual information, which was necessary for the recovery.
If you have knowledge regarding the unauthorized Congress content sharing, contact the Congress registration office.
