You remain responsible for any activity that happens on or through your CascadeCon Account by a third party, even if you do not authorize the activity.

CascadeCon is proud to host board game-related events, for which you may, and for which we hope, you will register. If you register for other attendees, you hereby affirm that you have those attendees’ authorization to register their names and provide us their email addresses and other relevant personal information. If you are an attendee and another person has registered for you, you hereby authorize the registrant to do the same on your behalf.
Upon Registration, you acknowledge that you, either as a registrant or attendee, or both, are subject to CascadeCon’s Event Rules and Policies, which constitute the conditions of your license to attend a CascadeCon event.
