1. Registration and Admission

1.3 RNG reserves the right without liability to refuse admission to, or to eject/block from, the Event (whether physical or virtual) any person in its absolute discretion, including (without limitation) any person who fails to comply with these terms and conditions or who, in the opinion of RNG represents a security risk, danger, nuisance or annoyance to the running of the Event and to other attendees.
1.4  For safety of people at the event, the venue management and RNG reserves the right to search your belongings on entry to the venue and/or at any time while you are at the venue. If you refuse to submit to a requested search, RNG may refuse you entry to or remove you from the Event.

This may include changes to content, location, venue, opening hours, duration, dates, other timings, speakers, programme order, sponsors, exhibitors and/or any other aspect of the Event, in each case without liability and specifically without any obligation to make refunds or exchange tickets. RNG will make every effort to communicate changes, but it is your responsibility for checking whether an Event or element of an event has been cancelled, amended or rescheduled, and the date and time of any rescheduled Event.
