Terms & Conditions

All attendees, or those acting on behalf of an attendee, agree to be bound by the following registration terms and conditions.

Registrations are confirmed only after full payment has been received. Credit cards used on the website are charged immediately and may not be replaced with payment by check at a later date; charges are shown on the credit card statement as “A+ Events.” If a check is mailed, in lieu of a credit card payment, the registration will remain “pending” and not confirmed until full payment is received. All checks must be made payable to: A+ Events and mailed to 532 N. Franklin Street, Fort Bragg CA 95437, and must be accompanied by a copy of the online invoice to ensure payment is applied as intended.

Registrations may be transferred, at no cost, from one attendee to another at any time. Substitutions made prior to December 1, 2009 are made via the online attendee record. Substitutions after this date must be made onsite.

Only confirmed, registered, attendees may make hotel reservations within the Conference block of rooms or at the Conference rate. Hotel reservations at the headquarters hotel require payment in full for the entire stay.

Cancellations may be made at any point by faxing a completed cancellation form to A+ Events. Early cancellations are less burdensome to the conference than those occurring closer to the event. A sliding scale refund policy addresses this issue and accurately assesses financial responsibility for the cancellations that create the greatest financial burden on the conference. Cancellation assessment percentages apply to all cancellations, regardless of the reason, and apply on all purchases on an attendee record, including registrations, special events, and hotel reservations. Assessment percentages also apply equally to items in a paid or payment due status.
