I, the undersigned adult or parent/guardian, in consideration of the opportunity for me or my minor child to participate in the SHPE 2020 National Convention (“Program”) provided by the Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers and its regional divisions, chapters, and related organizations, and their officers, directors, employees, members, volunteers, representatives, and agents (together, “SHPE”), hereby FOREVER RELEASE, WAIVE, AND HOLD HARMLESS SHPE from any and all liability, injury, damage, loss, or expense that may arise, directly or indirectly, now or in the future, regardless of whether caused by fault on the part of SHPE, in connection with my or my child’s participation in the Program.
I PROMISE NOT TO SUE SHPE for any of the claims that I have released, waived, and discharged. I hereby assume all risk of personal injury, damage and expense related to my participation in, and travel to and from, the Program. I understand this release and waiver is intended to be as broad and inclusive as is permitted by law, and that if any portion of this release and waiver is held invalid, the remainder will continue in full legal force and effect. This release and waiver shall extend to and be binding upon me and my estate, heirs, executors, administrators and personal representatives, and if signing on behalf of my minor child, also upon my child’s estate, heirs, executors, administrators and personal representatives.
I authorize SHPE to obtain emergency medical attention for my or my child’s care if I am unavailable or unable, due to physical or mental incapacity, to make health care decisions for myself or my child. I agree to be responsible for all necessary charges incurred by any hospitalization or treatment rendered pursuant to this authorization.
I understand that SHPE is a nonprofit organization that supports educational enrichment programs for Hispanic students pursuing academic studies in science, technology, engineering, and math. I understand that my or my child’s participation in the Program is completely voluntary and permitted at SHPE’s discretion, and if my or my child’s conduct does not meet reasonable standards of behavior, my participation in the Program may be revoked.
Portions of the Program may be photographed, videotaped or otherwise recorded. I authorize SHPE to take photographs or other likenesses of me or my child on videotape, audiotape, film, photograph or any other medium (the “Recordings”). I irrevocably grant to SHPE a nonexclusive, irrevocable, sublicensable, assignable right and license to publish, display, reproduce, modify, exhibit and otherwise use, in whole or in part, the Recordings, in any and all media (whether now known or hereafter devised) and territories, without further compensation or consideration, for its nonprofit educational purposes. I waive all rights of inspection or approval with regard to any use of the Recordings for SHPE’s purposes.
I, THE UNDERSIGNED ADULT OR PARENT/GUARDIAN, BEING 18 YEARS OF AGE OR OLDER, HAVE READ AND UNDERSTOOD THIS RELEASE AND ENTER INTO IT ON BEHALF OF MYSELF AND IF APPLICABLE MY CHILD, IN CONSIDERATION OF THE OPPORTUNITY TO PARTICIPATE IN THE PROGRAM.
