No person named on the badge or the company, firm or business, which that person represents, may permit the badge to be worn by another person. The wearing of a badge under these circumstances will constitute appropriation, an automatic termination of such licence and will be sufficient grounds for the unauthorised individual to be removed from the exhibition. It may also lead to prosecution. Identity checks will be conducted as a condition of entry.
All persons attending the Forces Focus should carry and produce on request a supporting personal photographic identity document - passport, photo- ID, military ID, driving licence, national identity document or similar.
Without prejudice, the Organisers reserve the right to exclude any person(s).
No photography or filming of stands and/or exhibits is allowed without the expressed permission of the stand manager. Exhibitors are allowed to photograph and film their own stands.
Closed Circuit Television Cameras (CCTV) will be in operation at all times during Forces Focus.
The Organisers reserve the right to deliver the CCTV recordings to the Police or other competent authority as evidence if requested to do so. The contents of such recordings may be used as evidence in a court of law. For further information contact the Security Manager.
The Organisers reserve the right to film/permit approved third party filming during Forces Focus. By attending the show, visitors permit the Organisers/approved third parties to use any footage taken.
