2012 Genitourinary Cancers Symposium Attendee Policies
Special Assistance
The Symposium cosponsors, the Moscone West Building, and all official Symposium hotels comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act. If you require special assistance, please contact the 2012 Genitourinary Cancers Symposium Registration and Housing Center at guhousing@jspargo.com. If you need to rent a scooter or wheelchair, please contact meetings@asco.org.
Age Requirement for Attendees
Because of the detailed nature of the program, no one under the age of 18 will be admitted to any official Symposium function. This includes, but is not limited to, all Symposium sessions and the exhibits/posters/food room.
Important Security and Attendee Conduct Information
For security reasons, the 2012 Genitourinary Cancers Symposium badge will be required for admittance to all events. Please wear your badge so that it can be easily seen at all times. Lost badges should be reported to the Registration staff immediately. The following badge policies will be in effect throughout the Symposium:
- The 2012 Genitourinary Cancers Symposium badge is the sole property of the Symposium cosponsors.
- The badge is nontransferable.
- False certification of individuals as paid Symposium attendees, misuse of badges, any method of assisting unauthorized persons to gain access to any Symposium event, or any inappropriate or unauthorized conduct will be just cause for repossessing badges of any individuals involved and expelling all parties involved from the Symposium without obligation on the part of the Symposium cosponsors for refund of any fees.
In addition, individuals who are part of the 2012 Genitourinary Cancers Symposium may not engage in any demonstrations or other behavior that the Symposium cosponsors deem to be potentially disruptive to the conduct of the Symposium. Violation of this rule is grounds for immediate dismissal from the Symposium and/or ineligibility for attendance at future ASCO symposia or meetings. Any person who is dismissed from the Symposium may request that the Symposium cosponsors review the matter, provided, however, that such dismissal will be effective immediately and will continue until and unless the Symposium cosponsors issue a contrary decision.
Cancellation Statement
The Symposium cosponsors reserve the right to cancel the 2012 Genitourinary Cancers Symposium because of unforeseen circumstances. In the event of such cancellation, the full registration fee will be returned to each registrant.
Equal Opportunity Statement
The 2012 Genitourinary Cancers Symposium is available without regard to race, color, sex, national origin, disability, age, or veteran status as provided by law and in accordance with the Symposium cosponsors’ respect for personal dignity.
