Owner and legal review required. These organizer terms have been re-pointed from the platform's previous program to the DMV A|E|C regional calendar. Eligibility, licensing, and liability language must be confirmed by the owner and legal counsel before publication.
1. Eligibility
You may submit events on behalf of an organization that hosts or presents architecture, engineering, construction, or infrastructure programming in Washington, DC, Maryland, or Northern Virginia. Organizations register an account and are reviewed by the site administrator before publishing.
2. Event Relevance
DMV A|E|C is a curated professional calendar. An event should be relevant to the architecture, engineering, construction, infrastructure, real estate, or workforce ecosystem of the region — for example procurement briefings, project pipeline updates, prequalification workshops, supplier outreach, continuing education, safety training, conferences, or association programs.
The site administrator may decline, remove, or reclassify submissions that do not fit the calendar's focus, are duplicative, are stale, or cannot be reasonably verified.
3. Accuracy
You are responsible for the accuracy of every listing. Use the official event title, date, time, location, organizer, and registration link whenever possible. Do not create fake, speculative, duplicate, stale, or knowingly misleading listings.
You must promptly update or request correction of material changes, including postponement or cancellation.
4. Rights to Content
You may submit only text, images, logos, photographs, trademarks, links, and other content that you own, are authorized to use, or otherwise have a lawful basis to provide.
By submitting content, you grant Marketus the non-exclusive license described in the Terms of Use to display, format, reproduce, archive, and promote the content in connection with the Platform.
5. Your Event; Your Responsibility
Unless Marketus is expressly identified as the organizer, you and the identified event organizer are solely responsible for the event and its operations. This includes venue arrangements, staffing, permits, licensing, insurance, safety, security, accessibility, food or alcohol compliance, attendee conduct, registration, ticketing, payments, refunds, cancellations, communications, and compliance with applicable law.
Listing an event does not mean Marketus sponsors, endorses, guarantees, insures, supervises, or assumes responsibility for the event.
6. External Registration and Payments
The Platform links to organizer-controlled or third-party registration pages when registration is required. Do not submit payment-card, banking, Social Security, government-ID, or other sensitive financial information through the Platform.
7. Privacy
Organizer account and submission information is handled as described in the Privacy & Cookies Notice.
8. Community Standards
Keep it accurate. Verify dates, locations, and registration details before publishing.
Keep it professional. Listings and images should be appropriate for a professional industry audience.
Respect rights. Do not use another organization's marks, photography, or copy without permission.
Do not imply endorsement. Do not state or imply that Marketus, a sponsor, or another organization endorses an event unless that is true.
Protect personal information. Do not publish private contact details without consent.
9. Moderation
The site administrator may review, format, correct, merge duplicates, request clarification, decline a submission, unpublish, archive, remove listings, or restrict an account when reasonably necessary for quality control, legal compliance, security, or operation of the calendar.
Nothing is automatically entitled to publication. Approved organizations may publish their own events, but the site administrator retains moderation authority.
10. Prohibited Conduct
Do not submit unlawful, deceptive, or infringing content; misrepresent an organization or event; attempt to access administrative areas without authorization; scrape non-public data; or interfere with the Platform.
11. Indemnification
To the extent permitted by law, you and the organization you represent agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Marketus and its officers, directors, employees, volunteers, contractors, and agents from third-party claims, losses, liabilities, damages, judgments, settlements, and reasonable costs arising from your event; your submitted content; your registration, payment, refund, or cancellation practices; your violation of law; infringement of rights; or your breach of these Organizer Terms & Community Standards.
12. Liability
The warranty disclaimers and liability limitations in the Terms of Use apply to organizer use of the Platform. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Marketus is not responsible for lost registrations, lost revenue, event cancellation, attendance levels, external-site failures, organizer disputes, venue conditions, or other event-related losses.
13. Suspension and Termination
Organizer access may be suspended or terminated for material inaccuracies, misuse, security concerns, repeated policy violations, unauthorized activity, legal risk, or conduct inconsistent with the Platform's purpose. Ending organizer access does not prevent Marketus from retaining records reasonably necessary for security, legal compliance, audit history, or archival integrity.
14. Record Retention
Marketus may retain submission records, communications, and related information as reasonably necessary for security, legal compliance, dispute resolution, audit history, and archival integrity, even after an organizer relationship ends or content is removed.
