Exhibitor Rules and Code of Conduct

To ensure a productive, respectful, and technically focused environment for all attendees, exhibitors at the SEMI-THERM Symposium agree to abide by the following code of ethics:

1. Professional Behavior

Treat all attendees, staff, and fellow exhibitors with courtesy, respect, and professionalism.
Avoid aggressive sales tactics or behavior that may be disruptive to neighboring booths or sessions.

2. Technical Integrity

Represent your products and services truthfully. Do not make misleading claims about performance, compliance, or certifications.
Respect the technical nature of the symposium — presentations and conversations should maintain a focus on thermal and electronics cooling technologies.

3. Respect for Intellectual Property

Do not display or distribute proprietary materials belonging to other organizations without written permission.
Exhibitor displays must comply with copyright, trademark, and patent laws.

4. No Unauthorized Solicitation

Marketing, sampling, or promotional activities must take place within your assigned booth space only.
Distribution of literature or promotional items outside of your booth (e.g., session rooms, registration area, or meals) is not permitted without prior approval.

5. Confidentiality & Privacy

Do not collect personal data from attendees (e.g., badge scans, sign-ups) without disclosing how the information will be used.
Respect any “no contact” or “do not scan” preferences from attendees.

6. Compliance with Event Rules

Follow all exhibitor setup, teardown, and safety rules as outlined in the Exhibitor Manual.
Maintain a professional booth appearance and ensure it is staffed during exhibit hours.

7. Adherence to SEMI-THERM Venue Policies

Comply with SEMI-THERM policies, including the SEMI-THERM Exhibitor Code of Ethics, as well as all venue regulations.
Any behavior that violates these principles may result in immediate removal from the exhibit hall and exclusion from future SEMI-THERM events.
