"Organizer Component" means all elements of the Program other than the Stanford Component, including but not limited to the Day 0 guided campus tour and reception, all ground transportation and transfers, snacks and refreshments, the guided company campus visits, the startup pitch and networking event, and all coordination, hosting and support services provided by the Organizer.

"Package Fee" means the amount payable to the Organizer for the Program, as quoted at the time of registration.

"Program Materials" means all slides, handouts, workbooks, recordings, templates, participant lists and other content made available in connection with the Program.

2. Structure of the Program — Two Separate Parts

The Program consists of two distinct parts, provided by two distinct entities. This distinction is important and is reflected throughout these Terms.

• 2.1 Part One — The Stanford Component. A two-day, on-campus course offered and administered by Stanford Continuing Studies. Enrollment, attendance records, academic credit and the official certificate of completion for this part are governed exclusively by Stanford Continuing Studies and its own policies, calendars and refund rules. The Organizer does not control, and cannot vary, any of them.
• 2.2 Part Two — The Organizer Component. Everything else in the Program: the Day 0 arrival experience, the guided Stanford campus tour, the welcome reception, all ground transportation between program venues, snacks and refreshments across all program days, the guided visits to leading technology company campuses, the startup pitch showcase and networking evening, on-site hosting, coordination and participant support. This part is provided by the Organizer and is governed by these Terms.
• 2.3 Two ways to pay. Participants may either (a) register and pay Stanford Continuing Studies directly for the Stanford Component using the official registration link, and apply the coupon code issued by the Organizer against the Organizer's Package Fee for the corresponding amount; or (b) pay the full Package Fee to the Organizer, in which case the Organizer will arrange the Stanford Continuing Studies registration on the Participant's behalf using the information the Participant provides. Both routes result in the same overall cost. Section 5 sets out the mechanics.
• 2.4 Attending only one part. Participants who wish to attend only the Stanford Component may do so by registering directly with Stanford Continuing Studies; no Organizer registration or Package Fee is required, and none of the Organizer Component is included. The Organizer Component is not sold as a standalone product except at the Organizer's sole discretion.

3. What Is Included in the Package Fee

Subject to these Terms, the Package Fee includes the following:

• 3.1 Day 0 — Arrival and Welcome (October 9, 2026). A guided walking tour of the Stanford University campus led by an experienced guide, covering the main quad, historic landmarks and the parts of campus that shaped Silicon Valley's founding history. Following the tour, a welcome reception with refreshments, hosted introductions and structured networking designed to connect Participants with one another and with invited guests before the academic sessions begin.
• 3.2 Days 1 and 2 — On-campus program (October 10-11, 2026). Access to and coordination of the Stanford Component, on-site hosting and participant support, session logistics, and snacks and refreshments during breaks. Where indicated in the published program, additional sessions, panels, dinners and evening networking organized by the Organizer around the Stanford course schedule are also included.
• 3.3 Day 3 — Company campus visits and Unicorn networking event (October 12, 2026).Guided visits, with ground transportation provided, to the headquarters campuses and publicly accessible visitor areas of leading technology companies in Silicon Valley, currently planned to include Meta, Google, NVIDIA and Apple. Visits are accompanied by a guide who provides commentary on each company's history, culture, management practices and product strategy. The day concludes with a networking event featuring live startup pitches, investor commentary and open networking, with snacks and refreshments provided.
• 3.4 Ground transportation. All transfers between official Program venues on all Program days, including the transfer circuit for the company campus visits on the final day. Transportation is provided by chartered vehicles operated by licensed third-party carriers.
• 3.5 Snacks and refreshments. Snacks, coffee, tea, water and refreshments are provided throughout all three program days at scheduled breaks, receptions and networking sessions, as set out in the published program.
• 3.6 Program administration. Pre-arrival information, participant briefing materials, name badges, on-site coordination, and access to the participant communication channel for the duration of the Program.
• 3.7 Certificates. Participants who complete the Organizer Component receive a certificate of completion issued by the Organizer. Participants who complete the Stanford Component and satisfy Stanford Continuing Studies' own attendance and completion requirements receive the official Stanford Continuing Studies credential for that course, issued by Stanford, on Stanford's terms and timeline.

4. What Is Not Included

Unless expressly stated in writing, the Package Fee does not include: international or domestic airfare and any other travel to and from the San Francisco Bay Area; airport transfers; accommodation of any kind; meals other than those specifically listed in the published program; alcoholic beverages beyond those served at hosted receptions; personal expenses, incidentals and gratuities; visa fees, consular fees, travel documentation costs or any expenses arising from a visa refusal or delay; travel, medical, cancellation or personal liability insurance; medical costs of any kind; parking, tolls, and any independent transportation the Participant chooses to arrange; and any tax liability the Participant may incur personally.

Participants are solely responsible for arranging and paying for their own accommodation. The Organizer may suggest hotels or neighborhoods as a courtesy; any such suggestion is informational only and creates no obligation or liability on the part of the Organizer.

5. Stanford Tuition, Registration and Coupon Mechanics

• 5.1 Stanford Continuing Studies course details, as published by Stanford: TECH 43 P — Supervising AI Coding Agents; Fall quarter; Saturday and Sunday, October 10-11, 2026; two days; 10:00 am - 4:00 pm Pacific Time; on-campus; one (1) unit; enrollment limit of forty (40); tuition of USD $530; Stanford's own refund deadline of October 3, 2026.
• 5.2 Direct registration route. Participants electing to pay Stanford directly must complete their own registration at https://continuingstudies.stanford.edu/registration/cart and pay the published tuition to Stanford. The Organizer will issue a coupon code equal to the tuition amount, which the Participant applies against the Package Fee. Proof of Stanford enrollment must be supplied to the Organizer before the coupon is honored.
• 5.3 Organizer-managed route. Participants electing to pay the full Package Fee authorize the Organizer to complete the Stanford Continuing Studies registration on their behalf and to submit the personal information Stanford requires for enrollment. The Participant is responsible for the accuracy and timeliness of that information. Enrollment is only confirmed once Stanford has accepted and processed it.
• 5.4 Enrollment limit and timing. The Stanford course carries a strict enrollment cap. Places are allocated by Stanford on a first-come, first-served basis and cannot be reserved or held by the Organizer. Late registrations may be refused by Stanford. If Stanford is unable to enroll a Participant for any reason, the Organizer will refund the tuition portion of the Package Fee; the remainder of the Package Fee and the Organizer Component are unaffected.
• 5.5 Stanford's policies prevail for the Stanford Component. Stanford Continuing Studies' refund deadline, attendance requirements, academic policies, code of conduct, accessibility procedures and certificate criteria apply to that course regardless of anything in these Terms. Refunds of tuition paid directly to Stanford must be sought from Stanford under Stanford's rules and within Stanford's deadlines. The Organizer's cancellation terms in Section 7 apply to the Organizer Component only and cannot extend, waive or override Stanford's deadlines.
• 5.6 Tuition changes. If Stanford revises its published tuition, schedule, format or policies at any time, the Organizer will pass through the change and adjust the Package Fee or coupon amount accordingly, with notice to affected Participants.

6. Registration, Pricing and Payment

• 6.1 Registration is complete only when the Organizer has received the required registration information and payment (or the agreed deposit) and has issued a written confirmation. A submitted form alone does not create a booking.
• 6.2 Places are limited and are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis. The Organizer reserves the right to decline any registration at its discretion, including where the Program is not a suitable fit for the applicant's stated profile, where places have been exhausted, or where required information is incomplete or inaccurate.
• 6.3 Prices are quoted in United States dollars and are exclusive of any bank fees, currency conversion costs, card processing surcharges or international transfer charges, all of which are the Participant's responsibility. The Organizer must receive the full quoted amount net of such charges.
• 6.4 Where an installment plan or deposit arrangement is offered, the balance must be received in cleared funds no later than the date stated in the payment schedule. Non-payment by that date may be treated as a cancellation by the Participant under Section 7.
• 6.5 Published prices may change at any time before a booking is confirmed. Confirmed bookings are not subject to price increases except where required by a change in Stanford tuition under Section 5.6, a change in applicable taxes, or a documented increase in third-party costs beyond the Organizer's control.
• 6.6 Early-bird pricing, group rates, promotional codes and partner discounts are subject to their own stated conditions, cannot be combined unless expressly permitted, have no cash value, and cannot be applied retroactively.

7. Cancellations, Refunds and Transfers

• 7.1 Cancellation by the Participant more than one month before the Program. A Participant who cancels in writing on or before September 9, 2026 — being one calendar month before the first Program day — is entitled to a refund of seventy percent (70%) of the amount paid to the Organizer. The thirty percent (30%) retained covers non-recoverable commitments already made on the Participant's behalf, including venue reservations, transportation charters, catering minimums, guide and speaker fees, and administrative costs.
• 7.2 Cancellation by the Participant within one month of the Program. Cancellations received after September 9, 2026 are non-refundable. This applies regardless of the reason for cancellation, including personal circumstances, business conflicts, illness, travel disruption, or visa refusal or delay. Participants are strongly encouraged to obtain travel and cancellation insurance covering these risks.
• 7.3 Form of cancellation. All cancellations must be submitted in writing to contact@menlopark.university and are effective on the date the Organizer receives them. Verbal cancellations, messages to individual staff members, and social media messages are not valid notice.
• 7.4 Stanford tuition is separate. Where a Participant has paid Stanford Continuing Studies directly, the refund of that tuition is governed solely by Stanford's own refund deadline of October 3, 2026 and Stanford's procedures. Where the Organizer registered the Participant with Stanford, the Organizer will use reasonable efforts to obtain a tuition refund from Stanford under Stanford's rules, but cannot guarantee one and will refund the Participant only what Stanford actually returns.
• 7.5 Substitutions. Subject to prior written approval and to Stanford's own enrollment rules, a Participant may transfer their place to another individual up to fourteen (14) days before the Program start, provided the substitute meets the Program's participant profile and completes all required registration steps. An administrative fee may apply. Substitution into the Stanford Component depends entirely on Stanford's ability to process the change and may not be possible.
• 7.6 Deferral. Deferral to a future edition of the Program is not offered as of right. Where the Organizer agrees to a deferral at its discretion, the deferred amount is credited against the future program's then-current price, must be used within twelve (12) months, and is non-refundable.
• 7.7 No-shows and partial attendance. No refund, credit or pro-rata adjustment is available for a Participant who does not attend, who arrives late, who departs early, or who chooses not to attend any individual session, tour, meal, transfer or event. The Package Fee is for access to the Program as a whole, not for individual components.
• 7.8 Cancellation or rescheduling by the Organizer. The Organizer may cancel or reschedule the Program, or any part of it, if minimum participant numbers are not reached, if a key venue or provider becomes unavailable, or for any reason set out in Section 16. In the event of cancellation by the Organizer that is not caused by a force majeure event, Participants will be offered either a place on the rescheduled program or a full refund of amounts paid to the Organizer. Where cancellation is caused by a force majeure event, the Organizer will refund all amounts it is able to recover from its own suppliers, less unrecoverable committed costs. In all cases, the Organizer's total liability is limited to the amounts the Participant actually paid to the Organizer, and does not extend to airfare, accommodation, visa costs, lost time, or any other expense.
• 7.9 Minimum numbers. The Program is subject to a minimum number of confirmed Participants. If that minimum is not reached, the Organizer will notify Participants no later than fourteen (14) days before the start date and will proceed under Section 7.8.

8. Program Content, Schedule and Changes

• 8.1 The published program, including speakers, session titles, timings, venues, tour routes and the list of companies visited, is indicative and subject to change. Speakers represent corporations and academic institutions whose schedules are not under the Organizer's control.
• 8.2 The Organizer reserves the right to substitute speakers of comparable standing, reorder or reschedule sessions, change venues, alter tour routes, and adjust the sequence and composition of company visits, without any reduction in the Package Fee, provided the overall character and value of the Program are substantially preserved.
• 8.3 Changes of this nature do not constitute a breach of these Terms and do not give rise to a refund, credit or compensation claim.
• 8.4 The Organizer will notify Participants of material changes as soon as reasonably practicable, using the contact details supplied at registration.

9. Company Campus Visits — Access, Conditions and Limitations

• 9.1 Nature of the visits. The company campus visits are guided experiences conducted in and around the publicly accessible areas, visitor centers, retail spaces, exterior campuses and, where separately arranged, host-sponsored interior spaces of the companies concerned. They are educational and observational in nature.
• 9.2 No affiliation or endorsement. The companies visited are not partners, sponsors or co-organizers of the Program and do not endorse it. Their names and marks are used solely to describe the locations visited. Access to any specific building, interior area or employee-hosted session depends entirely on the company's own policies, security posture and staff availability at the time of the visit, and can be withdrawn without notice.
• 9.3 No guarantee of specific access. While the Organizer plans the itinerary in good faith and works to secure the best possible access, the Organizer does not guarantee entry to any particular building, campus area, visitor center, meeting or employee-hosted session. If access to one company or location becomes unavailable, the Organizer will substitute an alternative location, experience or session of comparable interest. Such substitution does not entitle a Participant to a refund or reduction.
• 9.4 Site rules. Participants must at all times comply with the security procedures, photography restrictions, visitor rules, badge requirements, escort requirements and instructions of the host companies, their security personnel, and the Organizer's guides. Government-issued photo identification may be required. Some sites prohibit photography, video recording and the use of drones entirely.
• 9.5 Confidentiality at host sites. Where a host company requires a visitor non-disclosure agreement or similar undertaking, the Participant must sign it as a condition of entry. Any information a Participant learns about a host company's unreleased products, systems, facilities or personnel during a visit must be treated as confidential and must not be recorded, published or disclosed.
• 9.6 Removal from a site. A Participant who breaches site rules may be removed from the site by the host company or by the Organizer, may be excluded from the remainder of the visit day, and will not be entitled to any refund. Any resulting cost, including transportation back to the Participant's accommodation, is the Participant's own responsibility.

10. Transportation and Transfers

• 10.1 Ground transportation between official Program venues is provided by licensed third-party carriers engaged by the Organizer. Vehicle type, capacity and routing are at the Organizer's discretion and may change for operational reasons.
• 10.2 Transfers depart at the published times. Participants are responsible for being at the designated pick-up point on time. The Organizer is not obliged to delay departure, to arrange alternative transport, or to provide any refund for a Participant who misses a transfer, and any resulting cost is the Participant's responsibility.
• 10.3 Traffic conditions, road closures, weather, mechanical failure and carrier operating decisions may affect timings. The Organizer is not liable for delays, missed connections, missed flights, or any consequential loss arising from transportation delays.
• 10.4 Participants must comply with all carrier safety rules, including seatbelt use, and must not consume alcohol in vehicles unless expressly permitted. Participants are responsible for any damage they cause to a vehicle.
• 10.5 The Organizer does not provide airport transfers, personal transportation, or transportation outside the published Program schedule unless separately agreed in writing.

11. Food, Snacks, Refreshments and Dietary Requirements

• 11.1 Snacks and refreshments are provided throughout the Program as described in Section 3. Menus, formats and providers are at the Organizer's discretion and may change.
• 11.2 Participants must notify the Organizer in writing of any food allergy, intolerance, or dietary requirement at least fourteen (14) days before the Program start. The Organizer will make reasonable efforts to accommodate stated requirements but cannot guarantee that any food served is free from any specific allergen, and cannot guarantee an allergen-free preparation environment at third-party venues.
• 11.3 Participants with severe allergies are responsible for carrying their own emergency medication and for informing the Organizer's on-site staff of its location and use.
• 11.4 The Organizer accepts no liability for adverse reactions to food or beverages served by third-party caterers or venues.

12. Reception, Networking Events and Alcohol

• 12.1 The Day 0 reception and the Day 3 networking event are hosted social occasions forming part of the Program.
• 12.2 Where alcoholic beverages are served, service is limited to Participants aged 21 or over, in accordance with California law, and valid government-issued photo identification may be required. Service may be refused at the discretion of the venue or licensed server. Participants consume alcohol at their own risk and are responsible for their own conduct and for arranging safe transportation.
• 12.3 The Program is open to adults aged 18 and over. Minors, guests and accompanying persons may not attend Program sessions, tours, transfers or events unless separately registered and paid for, and unless expressly approved in writing by the Organizer.

13. Startup Pitch Showcase and Networking

• 13.1 The startup pitch showcase is provided for educational and networking purposes only. Presenting companies are independent third parties. The Organizer does not endorse, verify, validate, audit or recommend any presenting company, its team, its claims, its financial statements, its projections or its securities.
• 13.2 Nothing presented, discussed or distributed during the Program constitutes investment advice, legal advice, tax advice, an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any security, or a recommendation of any investment, in any jurisdiction. The Organizer is not a registered broker-dealer, investment adviser or placement agent.
• 13.3 Any investment, commercial relationship, introduction or transaction that a Participant chooses to pursue with any presenting company, speaker, investor or other Participant is entered into solely at that Participant's own risk and judgment, following their own independent due diligence and their own professional advice. The Organizer takes no fee, commission or carried interest in respect of such transactions and accepts no liability for their outcome.
• 13.4 The Organizer makes no representation or warranty as to the number, identity, seniority or availability of investors, founders, executives or other attendees at any networking session, and does not guarantee any specific introduction, meeting, connection, funding outcome or business result.
• 13.5 Participants may not use the Program, its venues, its participant list or its communication channels to conduct unsolicited fundraising, aggressive sales activity, multi-level marketing, recruitment for competing programs, or mass solicitation.

14. Participant Conduct

• 14.1 Participants are expected to conduct themselves professionally and respectfully at all times, on and off campus, toward other Participants, speakers, guides, staff, drivers, venue personnel, host company employees and members of the public.
• 14.2 Harassment, discrimination, intimidation, threatening behavior, sexual misconduct, unlawful activity, damage to property, disruption of sessions, intoxication that affects others, and any behavior that endangers the safety of others or jeopardizes the Organizer's relationships with host institutions is strictly prohibited.
• 14.3 While on the Stanford University campus, Participants must comply with all applicable Stanford University policies, campus rules, and the instructions of Stanford staff. While at host company sites, Participants must comply with those companies' rules as set out in Section 9.
• 14.4 The Organizer may, at its sole discretion and without refund, exclude any Participant from any session, tour, transfer or event, or from the entire remainder of the Program, for breach of this Section. The Participant remains responsible for their own onward travel, accommodation and costs in such circumstances.
• 14.5 Participants are responsible for the security of their own belongings at all times. The Organizer is not liable for loss of or damage to personal property.

15. Health, Safety and Assumption of Risk

• 15.1 The Program includes walking tours, extended periods on foot, outdoor activity, travel by road, and attendance at crowded indoor and outdoor venues. Participants must be in sufficient health to take part safely and are responsible for assessing their own fitness to participate.
• 15.2 Participants must disclose in writing, in advance, any medical condition, mobility limitation, or accessibility requirement that may affect their participation or that emergency responders may need to know. The Organizer will make reasonable efforts to accommodate accessibility requirements at Organizer-controlled elements of the Program, but cannot modify third-party venues or guarantee accessibility at every location.
• 15.3 Participants are strongly advised to obtain comprehensive travel and medical insurance covering the full duration of their stay, including cancellation, medical treatment, emergency evacuation and personal liability. The Organizer does not provide medical insurance or cover medical costs of any kind. Medical care in the United States is expensive and is billed directly to the patient.
• 15.4 In a medical emergency, the Organizer may arrange emergency services on the Participant's behalf; all resulting costs are the Participant's responsibility.
• 15.5 By attending, Participants voluntarily assume the ordinary risks associated with travel, group activity, public venues and campus visits.
• 15.6 Participants must comply with any public health measures in force at Program venues at the time of the Program, including any requirements imposed by Stanford University or by host companies.

16. Force Majeure

The Organizer is not liable for any failure or delay in performing its obligations where that failure or delay results from events beyond its reasonable control, including but not limited to: acts of God, earthquake, fire, flood, extreme weather; epidemic, pandemic or public health emergency; war, terrorism, civil unrest, protest or campus disruption; strikes or labor disputes; power, telecommunications or transportation failure; government action, regulation, border closure, travel restriction or visa policy change; closure or unavailability of a venue, campus or host company site; cancellation by a third-party provider; or any similar event. In such circumstances the Organizer will use reasonable efforts to reschedule, substitute or deliver affected elements in an alternative format, and Section 7.8 governs any refund.

17. Visas, Immigration and Travel Documentation

• 17.1 Participants are solely responsible for obtaining all travel documentation required for entry into the United States, including passports, visas, ESTA authorization and any supporting documents, and for meeting all applicable immigration requirements.
• 17.2 The Organizer may, on request, provide a letter confirming registration in the Program. Such a letter is a factual confirmation only, does not constitute sponsorship, does not guarantee the issuance of a visa, and creates no obligation on the part of the Organizer.
• 17.3 Visa refusal, visa delay, denial of boarding, denial of entry, or any other immigration outcome does not alter the cancellation and refund provisions in Section 7. Participants are urged to apply early and to insure against this risk.
• 17.4 The Program is a short non-credit-bearing professional education and networking experience. Participants are responsible for ensuring that their chosen immigration status permits attendance.

18. Intellectual Property and Program Materials

• 18.1 All Program Materials, and all intellectual property rights in them, remain the property of the Organizer, the individual speakers, or their respective institutions. Materials produced by Stanford Continuing Studies or its instructors remain the property of Stanford or those instructors.
• 18.2 Participants are granted a personal, non-transferable, non-commercial license to use Program Materials for their own learning and internal business purposes only.
• 18.3 Participants may not record, reproduce, republish, resell, distribute, share publicly, post online, or use Program Materials to create derivative or competing training offerings, without the prior written consent of the rights holder.
• 18.4 Unauthorized audio or video recording of sessions, speakers or host sites is prohibited. Some speakers and venues prohibit recording entirely and this will be indicated on site.

19. Photography, Filming and Media Release

• 19.1 The Organizer and its appointed photographers may capture photographs, video and audio during the Program for documentation, marketing and promotional purposes.
• 19.2 By attending, Participants consent to being photographed and recorded, and grant the Organizer a perpetual, worldwide, royalty-free license to use their image, likeness, voice, name, job title and organization in promotional materials across any medium, without compensation.
• 19.3 Participants who do not wish to be photographed or filmed must notify the Organizer in writing before the Program begins and identify themselves to on-site staff. The Organizer will make reasonable efforts to accommodate such requests but cannot guarantee exclusion from wide-angle, crowd or incidental footage.
• 19.4 Participants who take their own photographs must respect the privacy of others, must obtain consent before photographing individuals, and must comply with all site photography restrictions.

20. Confidentiality and Chatham House Principle

• 20.1 Certain sessions may be designated as off the record. Where a session is so designated, Participants may use the information received but must not attribute it to any speaker or organization, publish it, or repeat it in identifiable form.
• 20.2 Commercially sensitive information shared by fellow Participants, presenting startups or host companies must be treated as confidential and must not be disclosed or used for competitive advantage.

21. Personal Data and Privacy (Summary)

• 21.1 The Organizer collects and processes personal data supplied at registration, including name, contact details, professional background, dietary requirements and, where relevant, accessibility and identification information, for the purposes of delivering the Program.
• 21.2 Personal data will be shared with third parties strictly to the extent necessary to deliver the Program, including with Stanford Continuing Studies for enrollment purposes, with host companies for site security clearance and visitor registration, with transportation providers, and with venues and caterers.
• 21.3 With Participant consent, a participant list containing name, organization and role may be shared with other Participants to support networking. Participants may opt out in writing before the Program begins.
• 21.4 Participants must not use contact information obtained through the Program for bulk marketing, unsolicited commercial communication, or any purpose incompatible with professional networking.
• 21.5 Data is retained for as long as necessary for the purposes described and for the Organizer's legal and accounting obligations. Participants may request access to, correction of, or deletion of their personal data by contacting contact@menlopark.university, subject to applicable law and to any records the Organizer is required to retain.
• 21.6 This section is a summary only. The Organizer's complete privacy terms — covering the categories of data collected, the purposes and legal bases for processing, recipients, international transfers, retention periods, security, cookies, marketing, and the rights available to Participants under California and European law — are set out in full in Part B of this document and form an integral part of these Terms.

22. Relationship with Stanford University and Third Parties

• 22.1 The Organizer is an independent company. Except as expressly stated in respect of enrollment in the Stanford Continuing Studies course described in Section 5, the Organizer is not an agent, partner, joint venturer, representative, licensee or affiliate of Stanford University, of Stanford Continuing Studies, or of any company visited during the Program.
• 22.2 The Organizer Component is not offered, sponsored, endorsed, reviewed or approved by Stanford University or by any host company. The Day 0 campus tour, receptions, transfers, snacks, company visits and networking events are organized independently by the Organizer.
• 22.3 All third-party names, logos and trademarks referenced in Program materials are the property of their respective owners and are used for identification and descriptive purposes only.
• 22.4 Stanford University and each host company retain full discretion over access to their campuses and facilities and may impose, change or withdraw access conditions at any time.
• 22.5 Where the Organizer engages third-party providers — including transportation carriers, caterers, venues, guides and event producers — the Organizer selects them with reasonable care but is not liable for their acts or omissions, and any claim in respect of services they provide lies against that provider.

23. No Guarantee of Results

The Program is educational and connective in nature. The Organizer makes no representation, warranty or guarantee regarding any specific professional, commercial, financial, funding, employment, immigration or academic outcome arising from participation. Testimonials and past-participant results are individual experiences and are not a prediction of any Participant's results.

24. Limitation of Liability

• 24.1 To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Organizer's total aggregate liability arising out of or in connection with the Program and these Terms, whether in contract, tort, negligence, statute or otherwise, is limited to the total amount actually paid by the Participant to the Organizer.
• 24.2 The Organizer is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for loss of profit, revenue, business, opportunity, data, goodwill or anticipated savings, or for the cost of airfare, accommodation, visa applications, insurance or any other expenditure incurred by the Participant in connection with attending.
• 24.3 Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability for death or personal injury caused by the Organizer's negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or for any other liability that cannot lawfully be excluded.

25. Indemnity

Participants agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Organizer, its officers, employees, contractors, guides and suppliers against any claim, loss, damage, cost or expense arising from the Participant's breach of these Terms, the Participant's violation of any law, the Participant's breach of any host site's rules or confidentiality requirements, or any damage the Participant causes to persons or property during the Program.

26. Communications

• 26.1 The Organizer will communicate with Participants by email, WhatsApp or the designated participant channel using the details supplied at registration. Participants are responsible for keeping those details current and for monitoring them before and during the Program.
• 26.2 Notices from a Participant to the Organizer must be sent in writing to contact@menlopark.university to be valid.
• 26.3 The working language of the Program is English. All sessions, materials, tours and communications are delivered in English. Participants are responsible for ensuring their English is sufficient to participate. Interpretation services are not provided unless expressly agreed in writing.

27. Complaints

Any complaint should be raised with the Organizer's on-site staff at the time it arises, so that it can be addressed during the Program. Complaints not resolved on site must be submitted in writing to contact@menlopark.university within thirty (30) days of the Program's conclusion. Complaints raised after that period may not be considered.

28. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

29. General

• 29.1 Entire agreement. These Terms, together with the registration confirmation, the published program and the privacy policy, constitute the entire agreement between the Participant and the Organizer and supersede all prior discussions, marketing statements and representations.
• 29.2 Amendments. The Organizer may update these Terms at any time. The version in force at the date of registration governs that registration, except where a change is required by law or by a change in Stanford or host-institution policy.
• 29.3 Severability. If any provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions continue in full force.
• 29.4 No waiver. Failure to enforce any provision does not waive the right to enforce it later.
• 29.5 Assignment. Participants may not assign their rights under these Terms except as permitted under Section 7.5. The Organizer may assign or subcontract its obligations.
• 29.6 Headings. Section headings are for convenience only and do not affect interpretation.
• 29.7 Interpretation. In the event of any inconsistency between these Terms and any marketing material, these Terms prevail.

P1.4 By registering, submitting information to us, or attending the Program, you acknowledge that you have read and understood these Privacy Terms.

We collect only what we need to run the Program safely, lawfully and well. Depending on how you interact with us, we may collect the following categories:

• P3.1 Identity data: full name as it appears on your identification document, preferred name, salutation, date of birth where a venue, carrier or alcohol licensing requirement makes it necessary, and nationality or country of residence where required for site access or immigration-related correspondence.

• P3.6 Dietary, accessibility and health-related data: food allergies, intolerances and dietary requirements; mobility or accessibility needs; and any medical information you choose to disclose so that we can support you safely or respond to an emergency. In some jurisdictions this is treated as special category or sensitive personal information and is handled under P6.
• P3.7 Identification and security-clearance data: where a host company, venue or campus requires advance visitor screening, we may collect government-issued identification details such as passport or identity-card number, document expiry, and citizenship, strictly for transmission to that host for access approval.

• P3.15 We do not seek and ask you not to send us information about your racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, trade union membership, genetic data, biometric data, sex life or sexual orientation, or criminal record. If you volunteer such information unsolicited, we will delete it unless we are legally required to keep it.

P5. How We Use Personal Information, and On What Legal Basis

We use personal information only for the purposes set out below. For individuals protected by the European Union General Data Protection Regulation, the United Kingdom GDPR, or comparable laws, the applicable legal basis is stated alongside each purpose.

• P5.6 To communicate with you about your booking, including logistics, pre-arrival instructions, schedule changes, cancellations and post-event follow-up. Basis: performance of a contract. These are transactional messages and are not marketing.
• P5.7 To facilitate networking between Participants, including producing a participant list and, where relevant, matchmaking or introductions. Basis: your consent.

• P5.13 We will not use your personal information for any materially different purpose without first informing you and, where required, obtaining your consent.

P6. Sensitive and Special Category Information

• P6.1 Dietary, allergy, accessibility and health information, and government identification details, receive heightened protection. We collect the minimum necessary, restrict access to the small number of staff who need it, share it only with the specific caterer, venue, carrier or host required to act on it, and do not use it for marketing, profiling or any secondary purpose.
• P6.2 We rely on your explicit consent to process this information. You may withdraw that consent at any time, though doing so may mean we cannot accommodate the requirement concerned.
• P6.3 Under the California Consumer Privacy Act as amended, we do not use or disclose sensitive personal information for purposes other than those permitted without a right to limit, and we honor limitation requests where they apply.
• P6.4 Information in this category is deleted on the schedule in P11 and is not retained in our marketing systems at any point.

P7. Disclosure of Personal Information

We do not sell personal information. We disclose it only in the circumstances below.

• P7.1 Stanford Continuing Studies, for the purpose of enrolling you in or verifying your enrollment in the Stanford Component. Stanford acts as an independent controller of the data it receives and applies its own policies.

• P9.5 You may request further information about the safeguards applied to a specific transfer by contacting us at contact@menlopark.university.

P10. Security

• P10.1 We maintain administrative, technical and physical measures designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration and disclosure. These include encryption of data in transit, access controls limiting internal access to those with a business need, multi-factor authentication on administrative accounts, use of reputable vendors with recognized security practices, confidentiality obligations for staff and contractors, and periodic review of access rights.

P12. Your Privacy Rights

• P12.1 Rights available to individuals in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and other jurisdictions with comparable law. Subject to the conditions and exemptions in the applicable legislation, you have the right to: be informed about how we process your information; request access to the personal information we hold about you and a copy of it; request rectification of inaccurate or incomplete information; request erasure of your information where there is no continuing lawful basis to keep it; request restriction of processing in defined circumstances; object to processing based on our legitimate interests, and to object at any time and absolutely to processing for direct marketing; receive the information you provided to us in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format and have it transmitted to another controller where technically feasible; withdraw consent at any time where processing is based on consent, without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal; and lodge a complaint with your national supervisory authority.
• P12.2 Rights available to California residents. Subject to the conditions and exemptions in the California Consumer Privacy Act as amended, you have the right to: know the categories and specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you, the categories of sources, the business purposes for collection, and the categories of third parties to whom we disclose it; request deletion of personal information we collected from you; request correction of inaccurate personal information; opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information, noting that we do not sell or share as described in P8; limit the use and disclosure of sensitive personal information, as described in P6; and not be discriminated against for exercising any of these rights. We do not offer financial incentives in exchange for personal information, and exercising your rights will never affect the price you pay or the service you receive.

• P12.4 How to exercise your rights. Send your request to contact@menlopark.university with the subject line "Privacy Request", stating the right you wish to exercise and the information you would like us to act on.
• P12.5 Verification. To protect your information, we will take reasonable steps to verify your identity before acting on a request, which may involve asking you to confirm details we already hold or to respond from the email address associated with your booking. We will not ask for more information than is necessary for verification, and any information supplied for verification is used only for that purpose and then deleted.
• P12.6 Authorized agents. You may use an authorized agent to submit a request on your behalf. We may require written proof of the agent's authority and may contact you directly to confirm it.
• P12.7 Timing. We respond to requests within forty-five (45) days where the California Consumer Privacy Act applies, with a single extension of a further forty-five (45) days where reasonably necessary and with notice to you, and within one (1) month where the GDPR or UK GDPR applies, extendable by two (2) further months for complex requests with notice to you.
• P12.8 Limits. We may decline all or part of a request where an exemption applies, for example where we are legally required to retain the information, where fulfilling it would adversely affect the rights of another person, or where the request is manifestly unfounded or excessive. Where we decline, we will explain why and inform you of your right to complain.
• P12.9 Complaints. If you are dissatisfied with our handling of your information, please contact us first so that we can try to resolve the matter. You retain the right to complain to your local supervisory or data protection authority, and, if you are in California, to the California Privacy Protection Agency or the California Attorney General.

P13. Marketing Communications and Messaging

• P13.1 We send marketing communications only where you have opted in, or where permitted by law in respect of an existing customer relationship for similar programs.
• P13.2 Every marketing email contains an unsubscribe link that takes effect promptly. You may also opt out at any time by emailing contact@menlopark.university.
• P13.3 Where you contact us or consent to receive updates via WhatsApp or another messaging platform, that platform processes the conversation under its own privacy policy and terms. You may opt out of messaging at any time by telling us in the conversation or by email, and you may block the number at any point. Message and data rates may apply.
• P13.4 Transactional and operational messages relating to a confirmed booking — such as schedule changes, pick-up times, venue instructions and safety information — are necessary to deliver the Program and are not subject to marketing opt-out for as long as your booking is live.

P14. Automated Decision-Making and Profiling

• P14.1 We do not make decisions producing legal or similarly significant effects about you based solely on automated processing.
• P14.2 We may use simple segmentation — for example grouping contacts by stated interest, language or program edition — to make our communications more relevant. This has no legal effect on you, and you may object to it at any time.

P15. Cookies, Analytics and Tracking Technologies

• P15.1 Our website uses cookies and similar technologies, including pixels, tags, local storage and server logs. Cookies are small files stored on your device that allow a site to recognize your browser and remember certain information.
• P15.2 Categories used:
  • Strictly necessary cookies, which enable core functions such as page navigation, form submission, load balancing and security. These cannot be disabled through our consent tool because the site cannot function without them.
  • Functional cookies, which remember preferences such as language and previously entered form details.
  • Analytics and performance cookies, which help us understand how visitors find and use the site, which pages perform well, and where visitors drop off. This information is used in aggregate.
  • Advertising and social media cookies and pixels, which may be used to measure campaign effectiveness and to present our programs to relevant audiences on third-party platforms. These are set only with consent where consent is required in your jurisdiction.
• P15.3 Managing cookies. Where a consent banner is presented, you may accept, reject or configure non-essential categories, and may change your choice at any time through the banner or the settings link on the site. You may also block or delete cookies through your browser settings, though doing so may impair site functionality. Mobile devices offer controls for limiting ad tracking.
• P15.4 Preference signals. We honor the Global Privacy Control and equivalent opt-out preference signals transmitted by your browser or extension where applicable law requires it.
• P15.5 Third-party platforms. Third parties that set cookies through our site, including analytics and social platforms, process the resulting data under their own privacy policies, over which we have no control. We encourage you to review them.
• P15.6 Email tracking. Our email provider may record whether a message was opened and which links were clicked, so that we can measure interest and improve relevance. You can limit this by disabling remote image loading in your email client.

P16. Children's Privacy

• P16.1 The Program is intended for adults aged eighteen (18) and over. Our website and services are not directed to children.
• P16.2 We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under eighteen. If we become aware that we have collected such information without appropriate consent, we will delete it promptly.
• P16.3 A parent or guardian who believes we hold information about a child should contact contact@menlopark.university so that we can investigate and delete it.

P17. Data Breach Notification

• P17.1 We maintain procedures for detecting, investigating, containing and remediating personal data breaches.
• P17.2 Where a breach is likely to result in a risk to your rights and freedoms, we will notify the competent supervisory authority within the period required by applicable law, and will notify affected individuals without undue delay where the law requires it, describing the nature of the breach, its likely consequences, the measures taken, and the steps you can take to protect yourself.

P18. Third-Party Links and Embedded Content

Our website, emails and program materials may contain links to, or embedded content from, third-party sites including registration platforms, maps, social media, speaker profiles, host company sites and partner pages. Following such a link or loading such content means that third party may collect information about you under its own policies. We do not control and are not responsible for the privacy practices of any third party, and the inclusion of a link is not an endorsement.

P19. Photography, Recordings and Publication

• P19.1 Photography, filming and the media license granted by attending are governed by Section 19 of Part A and are incorporated into these Privacy Terms.
• P19.2 If you wish to withdraw from future promotional use of an image in which you are identifiable, contact us at contact@menlopark.university. We will remove the image from materials under our control going forward. We cannot recall materials already printed, distributed, republished by third parties, or cached by search engines and social platforms.

P20. Your Responsibilities

• P20.1 Please provide accurate, current and complete information, and tell us promptly if it changes. Inaccurate information can prevent a Stanford enrollment from processing, cause a site-access request to be refused, or result in a dietary requirement not being met.
• P20.2 Please do not share other Participants' personal information outside the Program, do not add fellow Participants to mailing lists without their consent, and do not use the participant list for bulk solicitation. Misuse of participant information is a breach of Section 21.4 of Part A and may result in exclusion under Section 14.

P21. Changes to These Privacy Terms

• P21.1 We may update these Privacy Terms to reflect changes in our practices, our service providers, our program structure, or applicable law.
• P21.2 The version in force is the one published on our website at the date you access it, identified by the "Last updated" date at the top of this document.
• P21.3 Where a change materially affects how we use information we already hold about you, we will notify registered Participants by email and, where the law requires it, obtain your consent before applying the change.
