Innovations in Medical Education and Training herein referred to as IMET ("our, we, us") provides online information and services relating to and associated with Continuing Medical Education (CME) Conferences. This section describes the Terms of Use ("Terms") which governs your use of the IMET service (the "Service(s)"), site (the "Site"), and areas ("Areas" - later defined) and are collectively known as the "Network".
Acceptance of Terms of Use
By using, visiting, registering, or browsing the IMET Network you acknowledge that you agree with and accept these Terms, as well as the terms and conditions contained within our Privacy Policy.
Eligibility
These terms are legally binding and therefore should only be entered into by individuals who have the capacity to do so. It is therefore our policy that to access and use the Network you must be 18 years of age or older and have the right, authority, and capacity to enter into these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms then you should not access the Network provided.
We make a good faith effort to prohibit the registration of non-adults and will not knowingly collect or store personal information from those under the age of 18.
Conferences
Portions of the site require that you register ("Registrant(s)").
Registration
To register for a conference, service, or product you may do by completing the registration form accessible on the portions of the Site. Before registering you must agree that information you are providing on the registration form is true, accurate, and complete and that such information will be kept true, accurate, and complete for all intensive purposes of the registration. If any of the information you provide is untrue, inaccurate, or incomplete, we have the right to suspend, withhold, or terminate your registration as well as to deny any possibility of future registrations.
Identify Theft
Upon reasonable grounds that we find that you have registered with the site as someone other than yourself, we will cooperate with any and all lawful and legal authorities that warrant an investigation as a result of the misrepresentation you imposed and shall have the exclusive right to disclose any information provided to us in connection with the fraudulent registration.

To ensure a safe online experience we ask that you fully agree and comply with Site Conduct policies herein described. Upon reasonable grounds that we find that you have violated a portion of the Site Conduct terms that are also in violation of any applicable local, state, national, or international law or any case arising out of such violations, we will when possible cooperate with any and all lawful and legal authorities that warrant an investigation as a result.
