In order to maintain the informational and educational objectives of the ACC Annual Scientific Session & Expo, ACC reserves the right to deny exhibit participation of any companies requesting to exhibit vitamins and supplements that are not regulated by the FDA and/or to disallow said products from being displayed in the Expo. It is the responsibility of exhibitors to ensure adherence to FDA regulations, policies, practices and guidelines, and all other applicable industry guidelines, concerning the demonstration, discussion, use and/or display of products, technologies and/or services at the ACC Annual Scientific Session & Expo.
• ExpoSuites can only be secured by contracted ACC.13 exhibitors.
• Only exhibiting companies in good standing with ACC are permitted to submit an application for an ExpoSuite. Exhibiting companies must settle any outstanding balances in order for their applications to be considered.
• If the exhibitor cancels or defaults on exhibit space, the contracted ExpoSuite will be revoked and cancellation fees will apply, as outlined in these Rules.
