Participation
Avenue Code is dedicated to providing an enjoyable, respectful, and safe EWIT experience for all participants. With this in mind, we expect all participants, whether attendees or speakers, to behave in a professional and appropriate manner.
We do not tolerate bullying or harassment of event participants in any form. The UOL Group’s Code of Conduct, as well as all of its conduct policies, including the Zero Means Zero policy, apply to all EWIT events and all participants are subject to them. If you have any questions or concerns about these documents, please contact Avenue Code to receive the material, which will be available at the Event.
We reserve the right to take any and all appropriate actions, including expelling such participants from the EWIT event without refund, if we determine, at our discretion, that a participant is harassing, intimidating, threatening, or causing harm to other participants or the hotel venue.
You are solely responsible for your actions, behaviors, and interactions during the Event. By participating, you agree to act responsibly, cautiously, and sensibly, ensuring safety and maintaining ethics and good manners in relations with all those involved.
Compass.UOL Tecnologia Ltda, its partners, directors, and employees will not be liable for any losses, damages, claims, or expenses related to the conduct and behavior of third parties, whether speakers or participants, or information provided by these third parties before, during, or after the Event, in any format and platform, at any time.
Registration for the event implies full acceptance of the established rules and guidelines, and the participant is aware that, in case of non-compliance, their registration may be invalidated.
Photography, audio and video recording
You consent to Avenue Code using any photos, videos, or sound recordings, or other media recorded during EWIT, of which you may be a part (“Personal Media”) for media outreach efforts, promotional campaigns, various publications/communications, or other commercial purposes, as determined by Avenue Code. You irrevocably grant Avenue Code all rights, titles, and interests in the Personal Media without payment or additional consideration and promise not to make any claims or take any legal or similar action against Avenue Code or its successors, assigns, or licensees in connection with its exercise of the rights granted by this term.
Health and Safety Acknowledgment
We will implement preventive health and safety measures to help ensure the well-being of all participants during EWIT. All participants must comply with the health and safety measures implemented by Compass.UOL Tecnologia Ltda, including those related to COVID-19. Intentional failure to adhere to these measures may result in removal from the EWIT event.
However, we cannot guarantee that participants will not be exposed to or affected by any infectious diseases or health risks. By attending any EWIT event, you voluntarily assume the risk and responsibility for any potential exposure or health-related issues.
The Event ORGANIZATION is committed to doing its utmost to ensure a venue that meets, at a minimum, the recommendations of health authorities and the Public Administration, aiming at the integrity and safety of Participants. However, it is important to emphasize that there will always be a natural risk of exposure to contagious diseases in public places or where there is a gathering of people. The Participant acknowledges this situation and releases the ORGANIZATION from liabilities related to it, assuming responsibility for their own risk condition when participating in the Event. In addition, the Participant must be aware of the risk groups identified by health authorities for each disease, as well as any additional precautions that may be necessary. It is essential to follow all recommended hygiene measures and strictly comply with the ORGANIZATION’s signs and guidelines at the Event venue.

The materials shared or distributed at or in connection with EWIT (“EWIT Materials”) are for informational purposes only. We do not offer any guarantee, condition, or warranty that the EWIT Materials are complete or accurate and we do not accept any responsibility or liability for your or anyone’s reliance on any aspect of EWIT and/or EWIT Materials.

Despite the ORGANIZATION’s attempts to ensure the integrity of the Event, the ORGANIZATION reserves the right to modify, suspend, extend, or terminate the Event or any part thereof, at its sole discretion, or if the Event or any part thereof is delayed, interrupted, technically compromised, or corrupted by fraud, technical problems, failures, malfunctions, or other causes beyond the ORGANIZATION’s control. In the event that the Event is terminated and/or has any alteration (date, time, location) for any reason beyond the control of the ORGANIZATION, the ORGANIZATION will not be liable to the Participant in any way, and the ORGANIZATION will have no further financial obligations to the Participant.
Limitation of Liability
