Terms and conditions

These terms and conditions apply between the person, firm, company or other entity specified on your booking form ("you" or "your") and Informa Telecoms & Media, a company registered under number 00991704 whose registered address is 5 Howick Place, London SW1P 1WG, United Kingdom ("Company") for delegate registrations for the event specified on your invoice ("Event"). Please read them carefully as they contain important information. By submitting your registration to attend the Event ("your registration") you agree to be bound by these terms to the exclusion of all other terms. If you do not agree to be bound by these terms Company will be unable to accept your registration.

1. Your registration is an offer from Company to attend an Event which is subject to Company's acceptance in writing (which may include (without limitation) email). A binding contract between Company and you will only be formed when written confirmation of acceptance ("Confirmation" or "Confirmed") is sent by Company to you (whether or not it is received) using the contact details you provided at the time of registration. You should contact Company if you have not received Confirmation within 5 days of your registration, but in any event if Confirmation is not sent within 14 days of Company receiving your registration, your registration will be deemed to be accepted unless Company notify you otherwise. Company reserve the right in its sole discretion to refuse to accept your registration.
2. You will pay Company the fees specified in your booking form for the Event ("your fees"). Payment of your fees must be received in full and in cleared funds by Company from you in accordance with Company's payment terms from time to time in force but in any event not later than 48 hours before the Event. If payment of your fees in full is not received before the Event, Company may (at its sole discretion) either require such payment as a condition of your entry to the Event or refuse you entry to the Event. No refunds of any proportion of your fees already paid (if any) will be made and any balance of your fees will remain due and payable where entry to a Event is refused under this Condition 2
3. All discounts can only be applied at the time of registration and discounts cannot be combined. All discounts are subject to Company's approval. Discounts for group registrations are only valid for the number of delegates specified on your booking form. If the number of delegates that actually attends the Events is (for any reason) less than the number specified in your booking form, then Company may (at its sole discretion) change the fees charged to reflect the number of delegates that actually attend the Event in line with Company's published prices then in force. Any additional sums payable to us as a result shall be paid in line with Condition 2.
4. Prices for each Event are correct at the time of publication. Company reserves the right to change the prices at any time but changes will not affect registrations which have already been confirmed by Company. The applicable sales tax of the country where the event is taking place is also subject to change and you will be charged the applicable sales tax at the time you make your booking.
5. It is the intent of the parties that Company will receive payment of your fees net of all applicable taxes, including without limitation, sales, VAT, service or withholding taxes ("Taxes"), all of which shall be paid solely by you. If and to the extent that any Taxes are levied upon, or found to be applicable to, the whole or any portion of the payment of your fees, the amount of such payment shall be increased by an amount necessary to compensate for the Taxes (including any amount necessary to "gross up" for Taxes levied on the increase itself).
6. You may cancel your registration in accordance with this Condition 6. You will receive a refund of your fees paid to Company (if any): (i) if you cancel your registration 57 days or more before the Event, subject to an administration charge equivalent to 10% of the total amount of your fees plus VAT. The Company regrets that the full amount of your fee remains payable in the event that your cancellation is 56 days or less before the Event or if you fail to attend the Event. If a cancellation changes the entitlement to a multi-registration discount, the lowest value registration will be cancelled first. No cancellations are accepted once any part of a single or multi registration party has accessed the pre-event networking or partnering facilities. All cancellations must be sent by email to itmevents@informa.com marked for the attention of and must be received by Company.
