By accepting this (or any subsequent) invitation to present at a PPCA conference, the author on his own behalf or on behalf of his employer as the copyright holder consents to PPCA taking the following steps:

Publishing the conference documents (in whole or in part) in the conference program and in electronic format (e.g., conference proceedings for distribution at or after the conference).
Placing the full paper (or any extract thereof) on the PPCA website (subsequent to or after the conference) and indicating that such is available to be downloaded without charge but only for personal use and on the strict understanding that it is not for republication.
Use the PowerPoint presentation (in whole or in part) at the specific conference and at any subsequent PPCA funded conferences as PPCA determines is appropriate.

In each instance, PPCA will give credit to the copyright owner so that they may be readily identified.
