General information
Health and safety: The IAPP will continue to follow state, local and venue requirements for meeting safely, plus guidance from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention as it relates to COVID-19 and other communicable diseases.
Assistance and accommodations: We are happy to help. If you need any special accommodations (i.e., person who is blind/visually impaired or uses a wheelchair), please contact us in advance to arrange assistance at Symposium.
Dress code: We are an informal bunch. Wear whatever makes you comfortable. No suits required. Speaking of comfort, you will be doing a lot of walking at Symposium. Plan to wear comfy shoes and dress in layers to adjust to fluctuating venue temperatures.
Method of payment: You can make payment by debit, Mastercard, Visa, American Express or Discover.
Registration policy: Registration fees represent the cost of a single pass per person. Sorry, no sharing passes.
Registration processing: All registrations will be processed by Stova. Because we are contracted with an external vendor, you will not be able to see your balance or payment amount when you log in to your MyIAPP portal.
A valid IAPP account is required to register for this event. If you do not have an account, click here to create one.
Cancellation policy: An executed registration form, online registration and email confirmation constitute binding agreement between two parties. Registration fees are not refundable. No refunds are given for no-shows or cancellations. If you do not cancel prior to the end of the conference, you will be liable for the registration fee. Agenda subject to change.
Cvent Events app privacy notice: In association with attending one or more of our conferences, you will have the option to download the mobile app to help you navigate the conference and plan your schedule. The IAPP has engaged a cloud service provider (Cvent) to host the Cvent Events app, which will allow conference attendees to view the program, including any last-minute updates to sessions, speaker biographies and venue navigation.
To access the app, conference attendees must download the “Cvent Events” app on their mobile device or access the agenda on Cvent’s event-specific webpage, entering a unique event ID which the IAPP will send by email. The IAPP shares with Cvent event registrants’ contact information to allow event attendees to be authenticated when they access the web-based event app, and the features of the mobile app which can be custom-tailored by each user. More information about Cvent’s privacy practices is available in its global privacy notice.
Privacy notice: We understand you are aware of and care about your own personal privacy interests, and we take that seriously. This privacy notice describes the IAPP’s policies and practices regarding its collection and use of your personal data and sets forth your privacy rights. We understand that information privacy is an ongoing responsibility and so we will, from time to time, update this privacy notice as we undertake new personal data practices or adopt new privacy policies. If you have questions or concerns, please contact dpo@iapp.org.
Conduct at IAPP events: The IAPP is dedicated to making our meetings and events safe places for all. We do not tolerate harassment of any kind. We insist that all participants at IAPP events — whether attendees, staff, speakers, exhibitors or sponsors — demonstrate respect and courtesy to all. This includes refraining from inappropriate language, comments and behavior, in person or by electronic communications (such as social media).
Anyone who has experienced improper conduct in violation of this policy is encouraged to report it immediately to IAPP event staff. IAPP staff members are trained to elevate such issues immediately. Alternate methods of reporting issues include emailing IAPP President and CEO J. Trevor Hughes at jthughes@iapp.org, or contacting a member of the IAPP board of directors.
The IAPP reserves the right to rescind registration or attendance at any IAPP event, at any time, for violations of this policy.
Photography/video: Please be aware that the IAPP will be taking photographs and video in public areas of the conference (session rooms, exhibit hall, etc.). We may use such media in marketing materials, educational products and publications. Your image and the sound of your voice may be recorded. If you are identified during the recording, or identify yourself by name, that information may be included in our materials. Recordings may be edited, copied, exhibited, published or distributed.
Badge scanning: Exhibitors and/or sponsors at sponsored speaking sessions or in the exhibit hall may wish to scan your badge so they can contact you with more information. The IAPP uses Cvent to provide badge scanning services to exhibitors and/or sponsors who request it. By allowing an exhibitor and/or sponsor to scan your badge, you are consenting to have Cvent provide the exhibitor and/or sponsor with your contact information, and thereafter you may be contacted by the exhibitor and/or sponsor post-event.
Badge printing at registration: The IAPP uses Cvent to provide badge printing services for those attending the conference. Your information will be shared with Cvent for the purpose of printing your contact information on your name badge. A name badge is required to gain access to conference sessions and networking.
Please note: The views and opinions expressed in sessions are those of the speaker(s) and do not necessarily reflect the positions of the IAPP.
