Capture Memories, Respect Privacy
At the IASD conference, we love to take photos to remember the experience and share them on social media. Here are some privacy guidelines to ensure everyone feels comfortable:

Ask before you click
Dutch privacy law (AVG) asks that anyone who is recognizable in a published image gives their informed consent, even if it’s just on a Facebook page. So, when you take a picture, tell the people in it where you are going to use it, and ask if they are ok with that.

Revoke easily
When you see a picture of yourself posted online but aren’t happy with it, you can have it removed, even if you said yes initially. Just ask the person who posted it ‘can you remove it?’ and according to the AVG they must, no questions asked.

But what if someone accidentally walks into my picture?
If you accidentally took a picture without consent, you have two options:
1. ask their permission afterwards (and make a new friend)
2. or blur them beyond recognition. A good free photo editing tool for this is Snapseed.

Special privacy note for workshops and dream groups
Dreams are an intimate topic. For extra privacy we say: no pictures or records of any kind in dream groups or workshops.

No recording or live streaming of a presentation
This one should speak for itself. But also, there's no need: presentations are recorded by IASD, so you can listen back and enjoy at home after the conference.

Enjoy snapping memories! These guidelines let us share the conference joy responsibly and inspire others to join next year!
