Terms and conditions

1. Event organiser and scope

ATAFOM Forum Education Awards and Conference is organised by ATAFOM University International ("we", "us" or "our"). These terms apply to our website, event registrations, award nominations, speaker applications, exhibition and partnership services. By registering or purchasing services, you accept these terms and any booking-specific agreement supplied before purchase.

2. Registration and applications

Provide accurate, complete information and select the correct event edition. Each application or order has its own reference. Retain it for correspondence, payment enquiries and event entry. A submitted application is not acceptance as a speaker, nominee, sponsor, exhibitor or media partner; acceptance is subject to organiser review and any separate agreement.

Tickets are subject to availability and the benefits stated at purchase. Transfers require our written approval. Registration is confirmed once applicable payment and confirmation requirements are met.

3. Payments and billing

The event organiser is ATAFOM University International. Follow only the payment instructions provided with your order or invoice. Prices, currencies and applicable taxes are shown before payment. Include your order number in any bank-transfer reference and retain proof of payment. Separate sponsorship, exhibition or other service agreements govern their specific deliverables and fees.

4. Programme and event changes

Programmes, speakers, schedules and venues may change. We will communicate material changes to affected registered participants using the contact details provided. Cancellation, postponement and relocation are addressed in our refund policy. Travel, accommodation, visa and insurance arrangements remain the participant’s responsibility.

5. Conduct and safety

Participants must behave respectfully, follow venue rules and safety instructions, and avoid harassment, discrimination or disruption. We may refuse entry or remove participants for serious breaches, subject to applicable law. Recording and distributing sessions requires permission where the organiser, venue or speaker restricts it.

6. Content and intellectual property

Event branding and materials belong to the organiser or their respective owners. Do not commercially reproduce or distribute them without permission. Applicants must have authority to submit their materials and permit their use for application review. Any wider publication of speaker or nominee materials will follow the agreed participation terms.

7. Privacy and refunds

Personal information is handled under our privacy policy. Refunds follow our refund policy, including the 59-day notice requirement and processing within 30 business days for approved refunds. These policies form part of these terms.

8. Liability

To the extent permitted by applicable law, we are not responsible for indirect losses or costs arising from personal travel arrangements. Liability related to a registration is limited to the amount paid for that registration where lawful. Nothing excludes liability or consumer rights that cannot legally be excluded, including applicable mandatory rights in the country of the event.

9. Governing law and disputes

Applicable mandatory consumer protections and other rights in your jurisdiction remain in force. Contact info@atafom.university first so we can attempt to resolve a dispute in good faith.

10. Changes and contact

Material updates will be communicated where appropriate. Booking terms in effect when you purchase continue to govern that booking unless a change is required by law or agreed with you. Send questions to info@atafom.university at the organiser address below.
