For parents: what we do about safety

Blank badge cards, an orange lanyard, a marker and a roll of tape on a table, mid-preparation.
01 — You

02 — Your setup

This section is the one that actually changes how your day goes. The morning starts at 9:40 and does not stop to install things, so we would rather find the problems in August than at 9:41.

Which agent do you have working right now?
Do you need us to cover a subscription?

Say yes and we'll cover one. No form, no proof, no story required, and nobody finds out. We only ask that people who can afford it don't take one from someone who can't.

A managed laptop often blocks installs, and there is no fix for that on the day. If yours is, we'd rather hold a pre-configured loaner for you in August.

Should we hold a loaner laptop for you?

We keep a few, pre-configured. Asking costs you nothing and has no bearing on your place.

03 — Where you’re at

How much have you built before?

No answer costs you a seat. We use it to balance the room and to brief mentors.

A sentence is plenty. An unfinished idea is more useful than a polished one, and “no idea yet” is a normal answer.

Shirts are ordered in August, so we need this now rather than later.

04 — Parent or guardian

Required under 18. They get the details and a consent form to sign by September 16 — without it we can't admit you. We don't share it with sponsors.

We use this to run the day and to keep you safe. We do not sell your information and we never give your contact details to sponsors. If a sponsor wants to stay in touch, that’s your call to make at the event. How we handle safety and data.
