ÓÀÐǶij¡

ÓÀÐǶij¡ strives to provide a safe, inclusive, harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of gender, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, race, ethnicity, religion, beliefs, citizenship and/or other protected categories. All ÓÀÐǶij¡ participants, including attendees, media, speakers, contractors, partners, sponsors and exhibitor personnel are expected to follow this Code of Conduct and the Digital Community Guidelines at all official ÓÀÐǶij¡ venues and events. 

CTA does not tolerate conduct that threatens, intimidates or coerces a CTA employee, contractor, or another ÓÀÐǶij¡ participant, including actions based on an individual's background or any other characteristic protected by federal, state or local law. 

Firearms, weapons (including weapon replicas), ammunition, dangerous or hazardous devices or substances and illegal items are prohibited at all official ÓÀÐǶij¡ venues and events. ÓÀÐǶij¡ participants acknowledge all bags are subject to search and metal wand screening. For more information about ÓÀÐǶij¡ on-site security measures, visit ÓÀÐǶij¡.tech/security.

CTA expects that all ÓÀÐǶij¡ participants will be dressed in clothing considered appropriate and respectful for a professional environment. We recommend business or business casual attire. Participants must not be dressed in clothing that is sexually revealing or may be interpreted as undergarments, gender notwithstanding. Clothing that reveals an excess of bare skin, specifically genitals, chest or buttocks, must not be worn. Body-conforming clothing that hugs genitals must not be worn. These guidelines are applicable to all event participants, regardless of gender. Attire that imitates armed forces or law enforcement or appears to threaten the safety of event participants is also prohibited. ÓÀÐǶij¡ show management reserves the right to make determinations on appropriate attire. Participants in attire that ÓÀÐǶij¡ show management deems objectionable may be asked to alter their attire or may be removed from the event premises. 

All ÓÀÐǶij¡ participants must have and visibly wear their ÓÀÐǶij¡-issued badge at all times to enter any official ÓÀÐǶij¡ venue, exhibit area, conference or authorized events. Badges are the property of ÓÀÐǶij¡ and may not be resold, transferred to, or shared with others. Badges may be revoked by ÓÀÐǶij¡ show management for violations of this Code of Conduct.

Participants may contact ÓÀÐǶij¡ show management by emailing EventConduct@CTA.tech. Please remember that notifying ÓÀÐǶij¡ show management does not constitute or replace notification to local law enforcement.  This Code of Conduct does not replace rules posted by ÓÀÐǶij¡ venue owners or any rules that are part of ÓÀÐǶij¡â€™ contracts with its vendors, exhibitors and/or sponsors. 

Participants asked to stop any behavior in violation of this code are expected to comply immediately. This code provides general guidelines and cannot cover every possible type of unacceptable behavior. CTA reserves the right to apply corrective action to instances other than the specific examples noted. ÓÀÐǶij¡ participants violating these rules may be sanctioned or expelled from the event and any and all future events without a refund at the discretion of ÓÀÐǶij¡ management. 

CTA reserves the right to take any action that is reasonably necessary, in the sole judgment of CTA, for the protection of ÓÀÐǶij¡, CTA employees and contractors, and ÓÀÐǶij¡ participants including, but not limited to, exhibitors, and/or attendees. This Code of Conduct may be modified at any time and for any reason including to reflect changes to the law.
