All attendees or others who interact with attendees must comply with PLMA’s Code of Conduct posted at Policies. Some policies are highlighted below but these are not the entirety of the policy or the Code of Conduct. You are encouraged to review the Code of Conduct in its entirety to ensure you and your organization are in compliance during PLMA events. Here are a few key highlights:

• Anti-Harassment Policy:
  PLMA is dedicated to providing a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of gender, gender identity and expression, age, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, color, ethnicity, political position, or religion.
• Symposium Promotion Policy:
  PLMA recognizes that one of the benefits of a PLMA event is the interaction among the attendees and the open environment provided. It is the intent of PLMA that participants attending PLMA events be allowed to fully participate without outside distraction.
• Anti-Trust Statement:
  PLMA’s Antitrust guidelines direct all symposium participants to avoid discussion of topics or behavior that would result in anticompetitive behavior including: restraint of trade and conspiracies to monopolize, unfair or deceptive business acts or practices, price discriminations, division of markets, allocation of production, imposition of boycotts, and exclusive dealing arrangements.
• Photographs:
  Video recordings, screenshots, and still shots are taken throughout the event and may be posted afterward as symposium resources. By completing registration you agreed to have your image captured and all such images may be used for PLMA promotional purposes. 

You are welcome to conduct your own special events or meetings that do not compete with PLMA’s symposium agenda. To make meetings more accessible and still allow registrants to get the most out of the symposium’s learning and networking opportunities, PLMA offers the following guidance for hosting sanctioned sponsor or other activities: (please also see the Symposium Promotion Policy in the Code of Conduct)

Please schedule your personal and professional meetings and activities either prior to or following PLMA’s scheduled symposium programming.
