The following applies to all American Society of Naval Engineers (ASNE) membership applications, terms, conditions, and rates, and to all ASNE symposia and event registration rates, unless otherwise noted. Terms and Conditions are subject to change without notice.

Membership application requests and event registration requests will be vetted through U.S. government entities. ASNE reserves the right to reject any membership application or registration application.

Application & Agreement

Submission of a paid ASNE membership application, whether online, via email, fax, phone, mail or in-person, constitutes agreement with these Terms & Conditions.

After vetting by U.S. government entities, ASNE reserves the right to reject any membership application.

Membership Rates & Verification

Membership rates selected and paid by potential members during application will be verified. If an incorrect membership rate-type has been selected and paid, the rate will be adjusted appropriately after vetting and verification of membership status.

Personnel are responsible for additional payment if they signed up for an ASNE membership under an unauthorized category. Individuals will be invoiced for the correct rate, or may receive a credit for overpayment.

Payment & Refunds

By submitting a membership application, either individually or as part of an ASNE Join & Attend membership, once paid, the ASNE membership is non-refundable.

In the event a credit card is declined, or a check is returned, the registrant must provide payment (and/or return check charge) no later than 14 business days after notification.

Transferability of Individual Memberships

Individual memberships paid by a company or organization are not interchangeable. If a company or organization decides to change the membership status of a company employee (for example, the employee is no longer with that company or organization), the remaining membership term of that former employee is not transferable. The membership status goes with the employee, not the company or organization.

* Please Note: The only exception to these membership terms and conditions is if the company is a current ASNE Corporate Partner. If the membership is a benefit of Corporate individual membership, based on the Corporate Partnership level, the membership may then be switched to another employee of that ASNE Partner organization. The individual membership termination date is the same as the termination date of the Corporate Partnership. ASNE memberships authorized as a benefit of Corporate Partnership are valid only for the term of the Corporate Partnership.

Registration & Payment

Submission of a paid registration, whether online, via email, fax, phone, mail or in-person, constitutes agreement with these Terms & Conditions.

Symposia registration rates selected by individuals during registration will be verified. If an incorrect symposia rate-type has been selected and paid, the rate will be adjusted appropriately. Personnel are responsible for additional payment if they signed up for an ASNE symposia registration under an unauthorized category. Individuals will be invoiced for the correct rate, or may receive a credit for overpayment.

In the event a credit card is declined, or a check is returned, the registrant must provide payment (and/or return check charge) no later than 14 business days after notification.

In the instance a Purchase Order (PO) Number is not received, or payment is not obtained for any other reason, the individual or organization is still responsible for payment.

Complete terms governing symposia and event registration, refunds, cancellations, exhibits and sponsorships are published separately. Please see the ASNE Event Terms & Conditions.

Recording, Photography & Release

By attending an ASNE event, virtually or in person, each participant consents to being filmed, photographed and recorded during and in connection with the meeting, and consents to the use or publication of such recordings in connection with any promotional, educational or professional purposes.

Each participant releases ASNE and its Council members, directors, officers, employees, or agents from any and all liability arising from the recordings or their uses, including for infringement of proprietary rights, invasion of privacy, defamation or any other cause of action, and waives any right to inspect or approve such recordings and any and all rights to payment of royalties in connection therewith.
