The Organiser reserves the right to modify the program. No refunds can be granted in case of cancellation of speakers, lack of space in the Conference room or any other incidents during the Conference which are beyond the control of the Organiser.

 

 

5.2. Copyright

The speaker (author) agrees by making a presentation at the Conference with granting to the Organiser a non-exclusive license to use his or her contribution (i.e. presentation, contribution in electronic form). The speaker is expected to submit in advance an abstract and - not later than 2 months after the Conference - a final version of the contribution (respecting the citation and formatting guidelines provided by the Organiser). If the contribution is not submitted in the electronic form timely, the Organiser is authorised to use for print the edited recorded contribution as presented at the Conference. The license is unlimited in terms of territory, time, numbers and is granted for use by any means of use (such as in a printed book, e-book, online etc.) with the right to grant sublicense or assign the license and with the right to make common editorial changes and to decide about the graphics. The speaker will be provided with the right to make corrections before the contribution is published; the corrections must be made timely (usually not later than in a week, unless provided otherwise), otherwise the Organiser must not take them into account. The Organiser reserves the right not to use the contribution, in particular if the contribution will not pass the peer-review procedure of the publisher of the Conference proceedings.

 

It is the author's responsibility to ensure that all references and citations are correct, and that the contribution does not contain any material that infringes copyright, or is defamatory, obscene or otherwise unlawful or litigious. 

 

Speakers are asked to provide the Organiser their photograph. By providing the Organiser with the photograph, they agree with its eternal publication (until revoked) on the Organiser’s website, Conference printed materials, or Conference proceedings; name of the photographer should be submitted with the photography, otherwise it will be treated as anonymous work. The speaker grants to the Organiser a non-exclusive license (but not an obligation) to use such photograph in the same extent as the contribution with the right to further sublicense the photograph or to assign the sublicense; if limitations apply, these will be respected by the Organiser if informed in advance. The speaker agrees to hold the Organiser harmless if the use of the photography infringes upon third party’s copyright.

The Organiser is not responsible for any bodily or material damage (including theft) or loss suffered or incurred by participant during the Conference. Each participant is responsible for his or her own insurance in such events.
