ARGANZ

Registration Terms and Conditions

• CANCELLATION POLICY 

  Cancellations made on or before 21 January 2024, will be refunded less $100.00 AUD to cover administration costs. No registration refunds for full cancellations will be made after this date, and refunds for tickets to the social functions will be assessed on a case-by-case basis. You may elect to change to an on-demand viewing or transfer your registration to a colleague, in which case please contact the Conference Manager to arrange. 

  From 22 January 2024, if you change from on-site to on-demand viewing for whatever reason, you will not receive a refund for the difference in fees as the meeting will have incurred non-refundable costs for your on-site attendance. 

  If for reasons beyond the control of the Organising Committee, the meeting is cancelled outright, the registration fees will be refunded less a $150.00 AUD administration fee. 

• DELEGATE LIST 

  Personal information is collected on behalf of the ARGANZ. A delegate list will be produced for the meeting including name, organisation, region/state and country. It will be distributed to meeting attendees, sponsors and exhibitors and provided to future organisers of the ARGANZ Meeting. This list will not be provided by the ARGANZ Executive to any other third party. Should you not wish your details to be included on the list please indicate during the registration process. 

• ON-DEMAND CONFERENCE PLATFORM 

  The on-demand content of the ARGANZ Meeting 2024 is being delivered post meeting, and as such, the Organisers and Conference Managers will provide clear guidelines on best-operating systems to use for optimum viewing of the on-demand content for attendees. The Conference Managers will take no responsibility or accept requests for a refund if the guidance for viewing is not followed. 

• PHOTOGRAPHY / VIDEO 

  The ARGANZ Meeting is held in a public space, therefore we do not prohibit participants, exhibitors, sponsors, news organisations and other companies from photographing or video or audio-taping some meeting activities. Additionally, the Organisers may arrange for photos to be taken during the meeting. The Organisers reserve the right to use images taken at the meeting with your photograph and/or likeness in future marketing materials, including on the internet. The Conference Managers may also use images taken at the meeting with your photograph and/or likeness in future marketing materials, including on the internet, with the permission of the Organisers. Meeting attendees who prefer their images are neither taken nor published in any format, have the ability to object by sending an email request to the Conference Managers at fiona@outshine.co.nz. 

• INSURANCE 

  ARGANZ and the conference managers will not accept any liability for losses associated with the meeting. Delegates are advised to arrange their own comprehensive travel and medical insurance, including insurance for personal possessions and financial loss due to cancellation or postponement of the meeting. 

• ON-SITE HEALTH & SAFETY 

  The Conference Managers, in conjunction with the ARGANZ Executive and the Meeting Venue, are committed to providing and maintaining a safe and healthy meeting environment for all attendees, and to providing the information needed to achieve this. The Conference Managers, in conjunction with the ARGANZ Executive and the Meeting Venue, will take responsibility for providing health and safety procedures whilst on-site, however, all meeting attendees need to be aware of their own responsibilities.
