Responsibilities

The Organising Committee of the TIMS 2007 Symposium is keen to provide a well-organised symposium and to avoid dangerous situations, but the Committee will not take any responsibility, nor any (financial) liability for accidents, illness or other risks that may occur to participants in the symposium, nor the consequences thereof. No claims can be made against the organisers. Participation is a free choice and at the participant’s own risk. It is strongly advised that participants take proper (for example: travel, medical) insurance measures, including third party cover against harming other persons or objects. Further, each participant has the obligation to pay the symposium fee (including extra tours and options the participant has chosen) before the deadlines set by the Organising Committee. In case of failure to do so, the Organising Committee has the right to cancel that individual’s symposium participation.

Each participant shall with his/her signature on the application form certify his/her compliance with the regulations above and his/her full understanding of the information in the symposium pack. In case of electronic submission of that form, the mere act of submitting it by e-mail shall be regarded as equivalent to a signature.
