Statutory notices
Notices and Disclosures
The notices below are given to every applicant, delegate and enquirer. They limit what this office represents, and they are to be read together with the Standard Terms of Engagement and the Governance Framework.
Capacity in which Rutalien contracts
Rutalien contracts as principal for the supply and administration of physical exhibition inventory. Rutalien is not the organiser, promoter, licensor or owner of any venue or event named in its catalogue, holds no agency for any organiser, and gives no undertaking as to the conduct, attendance, programme or continuation of any event.
No immigration representation
NO INSTRUMENT ISSUED BY RUTALIEN CONSTITUTES A VISA, TEMPORARY RESIDENT VISA, WORK PERMIT, ELECTRONIC TRAVEL AUTHORISATION, OR ANY LEAVE TO ENTER OR REMAIN IN CANADA. Rutalien is not an immigration consultant, is not authorised to represent any person before the competent federal authorities, and accepts no instruction to advise upon admissibility. Admission to Canada is determined exclusively by those authorities at the port of entry, in their unfettered discretion.
No advice, no reliance by third parties
A determination recorded by this office is an internal admission decision. It is not legal, tax, accounting, credit or investment advice; it is not a certificate of solvency or of lawful conduct; and no person other than the applicant may rely upon it for any purpose whatsoever. Any third party purporting to rely upon a Rutalien determination does so entirely at its own risk.
Catalogue rates and availability
Rates, unit counts, floor dimensions, visitor projections and exhibitor projections published in the catalogue are indicative and are drawn in part from organiser material. They are subject to alteration without notice and do not constitute an offer capable of acceptance. Inventory is allocated only upon written acceptance of a reservation request and receipt of cleared funds.
Minimum lead time is not waivable
The minimum lead time published against an event is an operational constraint imposed by floor allocation, structural build, freight consolidation and venue accreditation. It is not a commercial preference and will not be waived, shortened or excepted on grounds of urgency, willingness to pay a premium, or prior dealing.
Personal information of delegates
Particulars of delegates, including travel-document data and photographic likeness, are collected from the sponsoring company for the sole purposes of verification, issue of instruments of attendance, venue accreditation, and response to lawful demand. The sponsoring company warrants that it holds the authority of each individual to make that disclosure and that each individual has been informed of it.
Records retention and lawful demand
Filings, instruments, examinations and determinations are retained in the audit register for not less than seven (7) years from the conclusion of the engagement. Records may be produced to a court, tribunal, law-enforcement agency, immigration authority, venue or organiser where production is required or permitted by law, and such production may occur without prior notice to the applicant.
Verification of instruments
Any person may test the currency of a serialised instrument through the verification facility maintained by this office. The facility reports only the standing of the serial and the minimum particulars necessary to confirm authenticity. A report of "valid" speaks to the instrument alone and constitutes no representation as to any person's identity, intention or admissibility.
Sanctions, export control and prohibited goods
The applicant is solely responsible for ensuring that goods brought onto the floor, and every person attending under its sponsorship, comply with Canadian sanctions instruments, export and import control legislation, and venue prohibitions. Rutalien will refuse or withdraw inventory where compliance is not demonstrated to its satisfaction.
Complaints and correction of the record
An applicant may request in writing that a particular held on its corporate file be corrected, and may make representations against a determination within thirty (30) days of its being recorded. Representations are considered by the Review Committee, whose decision is recorded on the file and is final within this office. Nothing in this notice derogates from any right of recourse conferred by law.
Reading these notices together
These notices qualify, and do not enlarge, the obligations assumed by Rutalien under the Standard Terms of Engagement. The examination standard applied to a corporate file is stated in the Governance and Compliance Framework, and the treatment of personal information is stated in the privacy statement.
