Terms and Conditions
We’re excited to welcome you to the Congress! To ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience for everyone, please take note of the following:
Who Can Attend
The Congress is open to all, including non-members, as we aim to create an inclusive and welcoming environment. However, we may need to limit access in certain cases to ensure safety, maintain confidentiality, or meet organizational needs.
Confidentiality
Confidentiality is central to the success of the Congress, and by attending, you agree to adhere to the following IPA confidentiality guidelines:
- Clinical material shared during the Congress must not be discussed outside the session or shared in any form.
- Presenters must obtain consent from patients (or guardians) or take appropriate measures to safeguard confidentiality.
- If you believe you recognize a patient’s identity, we ask that you leave the session immediately.
- Please ensure you participate in a secure, private environment during sessions in-person and / or online to protect confidentiality.
Failure to comply with these guidelines may result in disciplinary or legal action for IPA members. These measures are in place to maintain trust and professionalism throughout the event.
