Audiovisual Recording Policy
The audio and/or videotaping of IB events is strictly prohibited. Anyone in breach of this policy may be asked to leave without refund of participation fees.
The International Baccalaureate sometimes requests a photographic, digital, video, or film record of its conferences, workshops and other events. Whenever it chooses to make such records it will only ever make use of them for its own legitimate business purposes.
By registering for and attending an IB event, participants are deemed to accept that they may be included in such a recording.
In the event that the participant becomes aware of his/her image being used in a way with which he/she is uncomfortable, he/she should make representations to the event organizers who will be able to contact the relevant IB department.
Safety Policy
Neither the IBO nor its directors, officers nor agents are responsible or liable for the safety and property of participants or their companions during the IB events or any excursions related thereto. Travelling to and from the IB events venue should take place under the participants’ sole responsibility.
Participants are responsible and liable for their safety and property. Participants are advised to seek information on potential health and security risks for themselves and their companions at the workshops and to secure adequate insurance coverage.
