Cancellation & Insurance

Conference Cancellation or Postponement

The EANM accepts no liability if an event is cancelled or postponed for reasons beyond its reasonable control resulting from an act of God, governmental regulation, fire, war, terrorist activity or civil commotion. If the EANM elects to re-schedule the conference, all registrations and additional items are automatically rolled over to the new dates of the conference. If the EANM elects to cancel the event, the liability is limited to a refund of registration costs, subject to fees and conditions. The EANM will not refund any travel costs associated with the cancellation of the event. Accommodation pre-payments will be refunded subject to the terms and conditions of the hotel.

Insurance

Delegates are strongly advised to secure appropriate travel and health insurance. Delegate registration fees do not provide any such insurance coverage. The EANM accepts no responsibility or liability against cancellations of bookings, loss or inconvenience or theft/damage of belongings.

As an additional service, the EANM offers you the possibility to purchase a personal cancellation insurance during the online registration process. The cancellation insurance is offered by Europäische Reiseversicherung. It covers up to 100% of your registration fees and hotel fees if you must cancel your participation in the event for any cause provided in the insurance terms.

Certificate of Attendance

Your certificate of attendance will be available in your myEANM-Area after the congress.

Childcare

As the EANM policy does not allow minors/children under the age of 18 to attend the Scientific Sessions and/or enter the Industry Exhibition, we are pleased to announce the availability of childcare services in Hamburg. Recognising the challenges families may face when attending a congress, we are working with Kidsevent, a professional childcare service company based in Hamburg.

Kidsevent offers a wide range of age-appropriate activities for children up to the age of 12.
Participants requiring childcare services during the conference should contact Kidsevent directly at +49 40 55567225 or via email at info@kidsevent-hamburg.de.

Please note:

• Participants are fully responsible for reviewing the services offered by Kidsevent and for determining whether they are suitable for their child.
• The EANM will not provide coverage for childcare services. Participants or their respective workplaces are responsible for directly covering these costs.
• The availability of these services cannot be guaranteed, and requests will be processed on a ‘first-come-first-served’ basis by Kidsevent, depending on their availabilities.
• Participants utilising Kidsevent services accept full responsibility and assume all associated risks, absolving the EANM of any liability for issues arising from these childcare services.
