If at any time you are made to feel unsafe or unwelcome at a MSP GLOBAL event, or witness this behavior towards others, please report it as soon as possible. Reports can be made either personally onsite to MSP GLOBAL staff or emailed to ev****@cl*******.com . Regardless of the reporting method, the name and/or company reporting a harassment incident will be held in the strictest of confidence. Onsite staff have been briefed to immediately escalate incidents.
Enforcement
If a participant or group engages in harassing behavior, MSP GLOBAL retains the right to take any actions to maintain a positive event environment for all participants and staff. This includes warning the offender or expulsion from the event with no refund. Event participants who are asked to cease harassing behavior are expected to comply immediately.

In particular, exhibitors should not use sexualized images, activities, or other material. Stand staff (including volunteers) should not wear sexualized clothing/uniforms/costumes, or otherwise create a sexualized environment.
