Policies

• Excessive intoxication may lead to eviction from the event.

• Federal and state laws prohibit serving alcohol to individuals under 21. Underage drinking and providing alcohol to minors will not be tolerated.

• KisuuCon adheres to the Americans with Disabilities Act, allowing trained animal assistants ("working animals") in public areas. Do not interact with or disturb these animals, as they serve as guides for their owners.

• If any animal, including service animals, poses a safety or biological waste threat, the venue may request the removal of the animal and its owner.

• If a staff member requests something of you, please comply. If you believe you're being treated unfairly, you may request to speak with their superior. 

• KisuuCon takes complaints and disputes seriously and is committed to hearing both sides of the story.

• KisuuCon Staff: These individuals, recognizable by their KisuuCon Staff shirts and badges, are department heads and their immediate subordinates who have the final say in matters of conduct and event policies.

• Special Guests: Individuals with Special Guest badges are esteemed guests of KisuuCon, often hailing from the anime or video game industry. Treat them with politeness and respect.

• KisuuCon is a gun-free event in all rented spaces. Security checks at the entrance will inspect for firearms, weapons, and any items violating costume/prop policies or legal restrictions. Leave such items at home.

• Do not post flyers on doors and walls within the event venue. If distributing flyers for your anime club or another event, use designated fan tables. Flyers should remain within a PG-13 rating.

• KisuuCon does not tolerate harassment, defined as intentional behavior that annoys or alarms another person. This includes unwanted physical contact or following someone without a valid reason.

• Assault, an intentional unlawful threat, and act of violence, is a second-degree misdemeanor in Oregon. If someone tells you to leave them alone, respect their request.

• Report harassment or assault immediately to event staff, security, or local law enforcement. Offenders will be required to leave the event and may face criminal charges.

• Room stuffing is prohibited. Standard hotel rooms are limited to four occupants unless approved by the hotel.

• Do not sleep in public event spaces.

• KisuuCon, its organizers, and affiliates are not liable for any loss, damage, theft, or injuries occurring during the event. Attendees are solely responsible for their actions and any consequences.

• In case of emergencies, civil or medical, appropriate authorities will handle the situation. Lost items will be taken to the KisuuCon Information Desk.

• Keep receipts for your purchases and pay for items at the point of sale. Shoplifting will not be tolerated and will be reported to the appropriate authorities.

• Use common sense and maintain respectful behavior in all public areas during KisuuCon. Remember that you are a guest at the venue and hotel, and other attendees share these facilities.

• Event staff, venue personnel, and security hold the final say on acceptable conduct within the event. Failure to comply with their instructions may lead to badge confiscation and removal from the event.

• Repeated misconduct will not be tolerated.

• Hosts of room parties are responsible for the legality and well-being of their guests, as well as any associated costs or damages.

• Hotel personnel may inspect parties and have the authority to shut them down. Keep your room party clean and legal.
